If the government were functioning, I’d be against a shutdown. The government is not functioning. Democrats should stand their ground and refuse to fund DOGE. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.

We have 3 rails of government. So far only one is holding up their end. And it’s a big lift. Read this from Joyce Vance at Civil Discourse: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

Trump and Elon Musk are firing veterans and the VA workers who make sure our vets get the support they’ve earned. I mean honestly, this is as low as it gets.

Former Blackwater CEO Erik Prince wants the Trump administration to let private military contractors take over mass deportations. None of this is about making America safe. It's about using human suffering to enrich the border-industrial complex.

@stealthygeek.bsky.social: “Democrats should be running daily press briefings from a shadow White House pool of the legitimate news agencies which have been locked out by the Trump coup. Their audiences will get real news, Dems will regain some messaging control. Why is this not already happening?”

You know what type of people a $5 million "Gold Card" for US citizenship will attract? Successful criminals and state-sponsored spies. Well done, Donald, after years of accusing Democrats of using immigration to bring unsavory people to the US, you prove that you were, once again, just projecting.

Let’s face it. Getting rid of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is to make way for less qualified white men to take positions they don’t deserve.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that if Elon Musk really wanted to cut waste, he'd start with subsidies to Big Oil, loopholes to hedge funds, and all the waste from the Pentagon. Stop squeezing the little people, FFS.

Holy shit. This is scary. Senator Chris Murphy just revealed on the Senate floor that Republicans now have the votes to cut $2 trillion in services for seniors on Medicare and kids on Medicaid. Tomorrow is the House’s vote. $2 TRILLION IN CUTS. The worst part 👇
