Talking to MAGA friends and relatives, just share this. No need for anything more. Some of them are realizing exactly this, as they become victims of the man they supported and believed. Share this message. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory #Opposition

Loyalty Over Merit Trump fired Gen Brown because he pushed back on Trump’s war on “woke” making him a target. His replacement—Lt. Gen. Dan Caine, is less qualified, but a Trump loyalist. This isn’t about military strength—it’s about purging leaders who won’t bend the knee!

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

Freezing out the NIH's funding means freezing out American innovation. Research into curing cancer, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's all delayed. And ultimately it won't just cost us advancements in life-saving research, it will cost us lives.

The stable genius so far Inflation up. Gas prices up. Egg prices up. Bird flu rising. Feuds with “allies” increasing. Measles outbreak increasing. Stock market down Planes dropping out of sky

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.

trump, by the numbers: 3 days since flood 2 days of golfing 11 laps in Daytona $5 million taxpayer dollars 14 dead in Kentucky 77 Truth Social posts ZERO posts about the Kentucky victims. NOT. ONE.

First Elonald has people in charge of our nukes fired, and now the USDA is trying to un-fire people tasked with protecting us from the bird flu? Each passing day these clowns are in office, we’re less safe.

They voted to lose their jobs They voted for a laughingstock They voted for corporate welfare They voted to cut Social Security They voted to raise their own taxes They voted to deport their neighbor They voted to defund public schools They voted to lose their food assistance

Overheard at my local Foxtail Coffee: “Voting for him [Trump] was the biggest fucking mistake of my life.” No idea what drove him to say that, but whatever it was, I can’t feel much sympathy. So many Trump supporters are fine with other people getting hurt, and only get upset when they’re impacted.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump are mass firing veterans. apnews.com/live/trump-p...

You cannot fire so many people and shutter so many agencies and services and not expect things to start to go very bad very quickly. Our job is to highlight not only the chaos and cruelty of the firings, but also the devastating consequences. The public must turn on this madness and soon.

If Trump and the GOP extend their 2017 tax cuts, the top 1% will make out like bandits — taking home an extra $165 per day. But the bottom 60% will get shafted — getting only an extra $1.10 per day in exchange for massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP. It's reverse Robin Hood.

...they're eating the protections for the people who live there.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

Made me snort! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Make no mistake. We are in the midst of a complete and total Constitutional crisis.

"’America's competitors will relish this self-inflicted wound,’ Owens says. ‘We urge NIH leaders to rescind this dangerous policy before its harms are felt by Americans.’” www.npr.org/sections/sho...

NEW: We must make it clear to Trump and his maga cult—no cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security—EVER. Let’s try to get 1,000 letters sent to Congress today: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Not even trying to hide it…

Imagine

Trump & Musk are making massive cuts to the National Institutes of Health. I know there is a lot going on right now, but this is one of worst things they have done so far, will affect cancer research and trials, the search for cures, innovation and competitiveness, our universities. Your lives.

"The NIH announced it will slash billions of dollars of support to universities and research centers. "This is one of the biggest attacks on science we have ever seen. It could dismantle the biomedical research system, shut down clinical trials, and halt development of treatments" - Dr. Lucky Tran

Amid today’s massive NIH cuts to universities, please know that my research colleagues: - Develop new cancer treatments for kids - Are curing sickle cell disease - Build new tech to help premature babies survive - Prevent teens from dying of drug overdose - And more #NIH #MedSky #research #science

PSA: They’re killing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau because it protects you from them.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
