We don’t have massive federal debt because of Social Security & Medicare. We have massive federal debt because the rich don't pay their fair share of taxes. Now R's want to make major cuts to SS to give rich people more tax breaks. #ProudBlue #HandsOffMyMedicaid #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

“Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people, can transform the world.” –Howard Zinn. I hate seeing my fellow Americans afraid. Remember your birthright my friends. This is our country, our government, the people’s, not theirs. Don’t be afraid. Speak your minds! Don’t ever give up your power.

I think the most wrong I have ever been as a political scientist was when I said in a public forum in 2020 that there would not be political violence in the US (Jan 6 was 2 mos later). Tonight’s purges are a clear precursor to more future such violence. This is textbook authoritarian abuse stuff.

The case for X being a 1A state actor now is at least colorable. It is controlled by a government official, who uses it for government business, with no real boundary in practice between the government and his private interest in it. It is little different from if a .gov website allowed comments.

Crockett on Trump's relatively high approval: We've gotta do better at education. People don't understand. But you will understand when your Medicaid goes away. You will understand when planes continue to fall out of the sky... maybe Sleepy Joe is what we wanted, bc we could at least sleep at night.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

AOC has the right idea. Corporate welfare costs us $92 billion, the top 1 percent will receive an average tax cut of more than $60,000 in 2025, and it is estimated that extending his 2017 tax cuts will cost $11 trillion over 10 years. Let’s work on getting rid of the waste that is already there.
