At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Has Trump been compromised by Russia? From secret meetings with Putin to pardoning allies with deep Russian ties, his actions raise serious questions about his loyalty and the damage done to US security. Written by @hartmannreport.com via The Hartmann Report. whowhatwhy.org/politics/us-...

Cutting $2.3 trillion from Medicaid will abandon seniors in long-term care & bankrupt families. Republicans don't care about the human cost - they only care about their billionaire donors' profits. #DontCutMyMedicaid

🚨Trump & Musk are gutting the federal workforce—and screwing over Veterans in the process. Veterans make up a third of federal employees. Now they’re getting fired so these guys can tear down the government and hand power to their billionaire buddies. Democrats are fighting back. This can’t stand.

New Executive Order just dropped, and this one hits different. It puts the architect of Project 2025 in direct control of the Federal Election Commission + requires FEC follow White House directives. States must #VerifyTheVote or fair 2026 midterms will become a pipedream. EO: tinyurl.com/u8hrk9bu
