Can’t wait for my 7th grader to get home from school, so she can have a good laugh. These people argue from their full chest. And they vote.

This is what a deal with the devil looks like👇 @housegop.bsky.social JUST VOTED TO CUT Medicaid, SNAP benefits, school meals, & housing assistance all in exchange for giving corporations & billionaires a tax cut all at the expense of the middle class.

Medicaid provides 40% of the funding for community health centers. Medicaid supports 2 out of 3 people in nursing homes. Medicaid provides health care to 41 million children. Trump and his Republican friends want to enact massive cuts to the program. We won't let them.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

When Trump calls himself king, I think of a Seinfeld episode with a similar sentiment.

While Trump appoints 13 billionaires to his cabinet and Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg see their wealth increase by $217 billion since the election, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, 25% of seniors live on $15g or less and millions cannot afford rent. SAY NO TO OLIGARCHY.

At least $12 trillion from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA. Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

This is what people are saying on FB about the halftime show. Many, many public comments like this. I remember when FB used to be a boring place to catch up w family and friends. It’s become a racist hellscape. Can’t understand why. 🤔

Interestingly, in Loper Bright vs Raimondo, the conservative majority on SCOTUS ruled just last year that the judiciary can in fact overrule regulatory decisions made by the executive branch especially when those decisions are not specified by Congress.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.
