🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Senator Mark Kelly is a combat fighter pilot and Navy captain who bravely served his country. Elon Musk is a multi-billionaire trying to dismantle the VA who called Kelly, a veteran who put his life on the line, a “traitor.” Disgusting.

📌NOTE: If you are a Democrat who went to that lying hate-fest last night in Congress armed with a fucking Ping-Pong paddle, congratulations ... You are a real-life metaphor for the pathetically weak response to Republicans' ongoing attack on America.

I don’t ever want to hear “thank you for your service” from that draft-dodging coward again. We already lost 20 inpatient beds for mental health and detox at my local VA. The real-world impacts of this on our nation’s heroes cannot be understated. apnews.com/article/vete...

📌NOTE: Immediately after the vile attack on Zelensky by Putin's puppets Friday, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries should have called a joint press conference and explained to the American public the significance, heinousness and danger of that sickening surrender. 📌They should STILL be talking now.

Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country. Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine. Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.

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."

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

?? It’s no mystery where the money goes; this has been asked and answered. 70-75% of US spending is on Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, Pentagon and veterans + interest on the debt. Foreign aid is 1% of the budget. You can read this in a CBO or OMB report! Easily available.
