Trump’s betrayal of Americans: He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer. Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

More of this. Thank you Governor Mills.

You have got to be kidding me. Hell no.

Infant mortality increased along with births in most U.S. states with abortion bans in the first 18 months after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, according to new research. Babies who were Black, lived in Southern states or had fetal birth defects died at the highest rates.

I really want people to engage with the possibility of “B”.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

It's not complicated. They're just trying to stop women from being able to vote.

The Acting President discusses affairs of state, while the young boy and the old man share their boredom.

Banning noncompetes. Changing OT pay rules to include more workers. Capping credit card fees. Erasing student loan debt. All Biden Admin executive actions to help working people that were blocked by Trump-appointed judges. And Republicans didn't have a problem with any of it.

Interestingly, in Loper Bright vs Raimondo, the conservative majority on SCOTUS ruled just last year that the judiciary can in fact overrule regulatory decisions made by the executive branch especially when those decisions are not specified by Congress.

JD thinks you don’t know what checks and balances are.

“They are public servants in the truest sense of the word, who are not guided by party, not moved by vicious news cycles, but they are driven instead by mission, a mission to serve this country to the very best of their ability under any president of any party. (1/2)

🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Proof that wokeness has run amok: Nearly 7% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

USAID kind of had this coming. I mean, it did challenge apartheid. the.ink/p/usaid-foug...

Every time I say it people push back but- Republican voters vote that way because they believe things that aren’t true. They are not responding to real problems and cannot be reached by nuanced critique

Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.

Opposing team? Civil servants, by and large are patriotic, hard working Americans. You have no idea who they are bc you don’t understand committing to something bigger than yourself. Despite decades of gop propaganda they serve faithfully, and you are betraying them. But you won’t suffer, will you?

You notice how they seem particularly enraged by women showing tenderness or compassion? First the Bishop, now this. They want us at each others throats, they want to kill our compassion for one another. Don’t let them.

I never. NEVER. need to hear the words “defending women” from Trump.

If you think you’re safe because you’re not a federal employee, think again. These people are not going to stop until they are made to stop and they are going to take everything from us if we let them.

I am very much in favor of merit-based hiring and high standards for jobs with life and death implications. Which is why I oppose confirming Pete Hegseth, RFK JR, Tulsi Gabbard, and Kash Patel.

THIS

Oh, well if he put it in one of his fancy little folders, it must be real.

During testimony at his Senate confirmation hearing, RFK Jr. said Americans don't like the Affordable Care Act. Public opinion polling shows otherwise. nbcnews.to/4jCCPJ5

Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Here’s some government waste for you. Your tax dollars at work, creating the greatest brain drain in the history of the federal government. So no one will be there to watch them grift the rest of our money away. Well done MAGA.

This is courage. Something the Republican Party should get a little of before they find themselves under the hammer with everyone else. static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

Another profile in courage.

“My only regret is they should have brought rifles,” Stewart Rhodes said four days after Jan. 6. “We could have fixed it right then and there,” he said. “I'd hang fucking Pelosi from the lamppost.”

Breaking News: President Trump fired 17 inspectors general in a late-night purge of the internal government watchdogs, people with knowledge of the move said.

My God they are just the biggest bunch of useless, pathetic sycophants.

Each email and call log is a different violent rioter who assaulted me in the tunnel. If you are defending these people who brutally assaulted the police, maybe you ARE NOT a supporter of the police and the rule of law to begin with. If you did you would want accountability.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

New 2024 data: Over 50% of GOP fundraising now comes from just 100 mega-donors. Trump’s embrace of the billionaire class—and their embrace of him—will only supercharge this trend.

The President of the United States was so offended that he publicly demanded an apology from a minister upon hearing these words. Because she dared speak the truth to his face and ask for his mercy.

Pamela Hemphill was sentenced to 60 days in prison and three years of probation for her role in the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol. She did not want a pardon because she said it would be “an insult to the Capitol Police.”
