Ilhan Omar introduced an amendment to make corporations pay their fair share. Instead, the GOP voted it down and have moved along the budget bill that would strip $880 BILLION from Medicaid. Fun fact - that's the ENTIRE budget. #HandsOffMyMedicaid

Per @adamschiff.com: “Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. “The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.”

It seems weird that the next global conflict could come about ostensibly because the people WHO HAVE EVERYTHING already, literally more than any person could ever want, decided that IT STILL WAS NOT ENOUGH. And here we are.

Dear friends & neighbors of USA, We have someone who’s HIGH ON DRUGS dismantling our entire administrative state over here with NO congressional authority. It is ABSOLUTELY as absurd & devastating as I’m sure it appears. I’m unsure of the future but I KNOW we NEED you. Hold us near. Love, USA 💔🦋

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Mitch McConnell is hugely responsible for enabling the current destruction of our Democracy. He deviously maneuvered in an illegitimate Supreme Court that is busy stripping Americans of their civil rights while propping up the criminal orange felon. Fuck McConnell. He needs to be shamed & shunned

This is why you don’t send programmers to do the job of forensic accountants. That $8 billion was really only $8 million. Of the $8million, only $2.7 has been spent and the contract is only through 2027. Those DOGE boys have no idea what they’re doing. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are messing with your Medicare benefits. Democrats passed a law to finally let Medicare negotiate with Big Pharma for lower prices. Now Trump and Musk laid off the negotiators. That means higher drug costs for you. Nothing efficient about that.
