Congressional Republicans tried to pull a fast one. They called off the budget vote that cuts healthcare for over 38 million children and just put it back up after everyone left to try and make some Democrats miss the vote. Many Dems are voting by card to keep the vote open. I just did mine.

If you want to eliminate government waste and fraud, how about getting rid of those $10,000 toilet seats and $1,000 hammers the Pentagon has been buying FOREVER? DOGE that shit.

Send a message to giant companies ripping us off. On Feb. 28, don't shop online, in big box stores, no Amazon, no Walmart, no Best Buy, fast food nor gas. Just one day will send a powerful message. Think they'll miss our DEI dollars? Don't spend. Then, let them know why.

I’m down for Al Sharpton’s boycott on Friday. If we want to be effective, we need to stop giving these people our money. Are you in?

Analyzing data published on DOGE's own website, the Associated Press found that 40 percent of DOGE's "savings" have not saved the government anything. What a joke.

Bill Bramhall nailed it! 🎯🎯🎯 @billbramhall.bsky.social

The Republican who voted NO 👇🏽 “$20 trillion to the debt” — all to cut taxes for the rich, while gutting health care for poor folks. A massive transfer of wealth. Again: They never cared about the debt.

How much of Congress’ 6.5 billion for operations will be cut?

House narrowly passes GOP budget plan calling for $4.5 trillion in tax cuts and $2 trillion in spending cuts over a decade. Moderate Republicans feared it could lead to Medicaid cuts but fell in line. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/u...

There they go again, ripping away your health care in order to enrich MAGA Republican donors. Trump and Musk are DOUBLING DOWN with a scheme to add $4 TRILLION to the national debt — and GUT MEDICAID that 72 million Americans need — to give even bigger tax cuts to billionaires.

Greene: Those are not real jobs producing federal revenue. Federal employees do not deserve their jobs. Federal employees do not deserve their paycheck

In these very seconds, you and I get to decide whether our children and grandchildren and those following us will inherit something beautiful or grotesque. It's really that simple, that elemental, that close. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/its-time-t...

People are making their voices heard any way they can.

Once again they screw veterans first. — Veteran-owned small firms hit first by VA's push for $2B in contract cuts. Service-disabled veteran entrepreneurs bear 89% of the claimed savings. Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins claims this is just step one. washingtontechnology.com/contracts/20...

This....

Is it time for legacy media to stand up for themselves and other media outlets by not showing up! Or are they going to bend the knee by showing up every time FOTUS needs attention!?

Courage and honor come in many forms.

Tim Burchett votes yes. massive cuts to health care for poor folks — all to set up massive tax cuts for the rich. They never cared about the debt.

Ryan Mackenzie in PA-07 had 125,100 individual, living, breathing people relying on him to protect their health insurance. I'm sure the billionaires will appreciate their tax cuts. But voters won't forget.

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

When the stupid reveals itself..once again.. We don’t do kings, no matter how hard you try, asshole 🖕🏻 #SheShed

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

KEEP PUSHING! If they won’t do a town hall DEMAND ONE

Wait. It gets worse: "The new document states that the revenues will be directed to a fund in which the United States holds 100 percent financial interest, and that Ukraine should contribute to the fund until it reaches $500 billion....The US has allocated $119 billion for aid to Ukraine."

An actual government employee with an actual security clearance would be removed for openly supporting (& very likely financing) a foreign neo Nazi political organization in an election.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

Did you know? Republicans want to cut $880 BILLION from Medicaid to pay for a massive $4.5 TRILLION tax cut for their billionaire donors! Let that sink in for a minute…

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

I'm looking forward to the economic blackout a week from today. Remember, spend nothing on Feb 28 unless it's at local establishments. No chains or online orders. Yes it’s symbolic of what could happen if our government and Oligarchs don’t listen to us and make a change from their greedy ways!

They cannot erase us-WE ARE STILL HERE!
