3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

Who wants to give Jeff Hurd in CO 3 and Gabe Evans in CO 8 a call, since their districts have the highest numbers of Medicaid recipients in the state? Rural Colorado will be in deep trouble economically without Medicaid.

Even Steve Bannon, Trump’s former chief strategist, has issued public warnings that cuts to Medicaid could be politically damaging to Trump and other GOP leaders. “A lot of MAGA is on Medicaid,” he said on his “War Room” podcast just last week. “You can’t just take a meat ax to it.”

Last night, Trump said he wouldn't cut Medicaid. He just endorsed the House Republican budget that makes at least $880 BILLION in cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. They'll say or do anything to get more giveaways for their billionaire donors.

Last night, Trump promised he wouldn't touch Medicaid. This morning, Trump endorsed the House Republican plan to slash Medicaid. It's smoke and mirrors: Trump and Republicans are plotting to take away health care from millions of people to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

Take note of the messaging - this is both accurate and deeply unpopular. It's the kind of thing that forces GOP House members to quietly tell their constituents that they too are concerned about Musk. Make them own this. Make them squirm.

If confirmed this is going to blow MASSIVE holes in the US budget. It will serve only to transfer wealth from American taxpayers to the wealthiest Americans who are the hardest to audit. This isn't fiscal responsibility - it's theft by Elon, Trump and their grifting goons.

If Democrats don’t wake the fuck up, there’s a really good chance of a Dem version of the tea party movement taking out a few incumbents in primaries next year. The base is pissed and wants fighters. A lot of Dem electeds are just sitting on their hands and doing nothing.

IL Gov. Pritzker is one of the great leaders of our time. You can watch his full IL budget address here. If you forward to the 26 minute mark, you can watch as he shifts to a dire warning about the direction our country is taking, but also words of hope. We should all take heed.

Certainly doesn’t look to me as though the end goal is cutting government spending… They’re looking to reroute $$$ to the oligarchs. Firstly, by funneling our tax dollars into tax cuts for the oligarchs. Secondly, by creating government contracts for the oligarchs by privatizing our services.
