The Senate is working on a bill that will gut the Medicaid care that keeps Landry at home with his loving family. The U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. Call your Senators, tell them to vote against the budget bill.

Senate Republicans are voting to cut Medicaid, food stamps, and other life saving services just to give a $3.8 BILLION tax cut to the richest people in the world. Families will go hungry, hospitals will close, and people will die all so that billionaires don’t have to pay their fair share.

If there was ever a time to call your Senator, this is it. Voting has begun on the GOP plan to cut off health care for working-class Americans and slash taxes for the wealthiest.

Take a minute to look at these increases to the ICE budget in the GOP mega bill. Take another minute to let it sink in. They're preparing a police state that will far exceed rounding up Spanish-speaking brown people.

I don't understand Rick Scott's concern at all?! A MAJORITY of FL voters voted to slash billions from Medicaid & kick millions of Americans off their health insurance. I have deep sympathy for all victims of Republicans, but sadist Scott was re-elected in '24 and has NOTHING to worry about.

Here's what's in Trump's Big Billionaire-Enrichment Bill. The poor and middle-class get very little or lose money. Billionaires get money vacuumed from the poor and middle class transferred to them. I live in Ruby Red Florida, and I'm calling my senators to tell them to vote against the bill!

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

It’s time to open the books. An investigation needs to be opened into just how much has been spent on the deportations, the detainments, the unknown Stasi. The hotels, per diems. I want to know how much of taxpayer money has been spent to date. How they’re being paid, how much they’re being paid.

Let’s be clear that abortion can be effectively banned in this country without Congress passing a law but as a result of multiple moves that make it impossible to access. The intent of today’s Supreme Court ruling—and of Trump’s budget bill—is to shutter as many abortion clinics as possible

A majority of Floridians voted for this. It’s not going to work out well for us.

The Republican Party is the verminous, bigoted party of ignorance and anti-Americanism, striving to turn this into a totalitarian blood-and-soil shithole.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Our current President is a traitorous, convicted felon, and a court-adjudicated rapist who lacks the intelligence, character, decency, and cognitive ability to lead. His presence is doing us irreparable harm. We should not normalize him, but normalize stating the truth about him.

MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious. Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

THIS IS FUCKED UP: Sae Joon Park took bullets for America in Iraq. The thanks he got? A one-way ticket out of the country he nearly died for. He’s being deported to South Korea—after surviving spinal injuries, PTSD, and addiction. He fought for America. Now America throws him out like trash.
