The GOP says they’re going after “fraud and abuse” in Medicaid, but what they’re really doing is cutting hundreds of billions of dollars from a program that delivers care to the poorest Americans.

There's always a tweet.

The voting section of the U.S. Department of Justice has only three attorneys left on staff, according to an estimate provided by a group working to support the department’s remaining staff.👀 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.

A president who governs by “Executive Orders” is weak, not strong.

Remember when the story broke about a worm eating part of his brain and nobody was that surprised?

Art of the Deal!!

It’s actually insane that there’s an argument happening here over whether the plane grift is “corruption” What are we even doing?

The world needs more of this and less of most other things

Jeffries: China punked the administration and the administration backed down. That’s no surprise because we’ve seen that happen over and over and over again.

Paul: They started out at 145% got down to 80% now 30%. It is 30% more than we have on currently. It will be a 30% rise in goods coming from China, and somebody will pay that, it will be the consumer.

Strains bounds of propriety? Strains…bounds…of…proprietary? Am I having a stroke? What is happening?

"'Without meaningful reform,' Rep. Chip Roy said last week, 'Medicaid will bankrupt this country.' This is laughable, because of the massive tax cuts Republicans are also trying to pass in the very same bill."

The ‘free’ plane will cost us taxpayers millions. apple.news/AOSh4mIKJRbO...

in addition to him repeating insane racist conspiracy theories, it occurs to me that the reason he has time to hold long press conferences everyday is that he doesn’t actually do anything

Always defy the bully. They fold like a cheap napkin. Art of the deal, my ass. stocks.apple.com/A7wugjOcGSdO...

The only thing China had to do this entire time was wait until the deranged criminal eventually caved on his own trade war tariffs and he proved them right. Great businessman my ass.

The median number of Measles deaths among children in the US for the last 50 years has been 0. That's the benchmark. ANY more is a failure of policy. Bobby is currently a failed Secretary. You cannot yadda-yadda the life of a child that should not die.

Just a thought: Instead of white Afrikaners from South Africa, how about we fly American kidnapping victims from El Salvador back first?

Soooo Qatar funds Hamas. Pam Bondi was funded by Qatar. Trump to get a palace in the sky plane from Qatar. This is some EMOLUMENTAL shit on a level we’ve never seen before.

@drneilstone.bsky.social

2025: Keir Starmer suggests that pressure on housing and public services is because of migrants 2020: Keir Starmer, "Poor housing, poor public services are not the fault of the migrants, they're political failure"

Duffy: "By the way, during covid, when people weren't flying, that was a perfect time to fix these problems." (Who wants to tell him ... )

Aaaand there it is.

ART OF THE FOLD........

Red food dye isn’t the number one killer of kids. Guns are…

Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

Taking a bribe in a very public way doesn't mean you aren't corrupt, it means your corruption is shameless.

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I work for the New York Times, but I'm pretty sure corruption does not require an explicit quid pro quo.

NYC’s congestion pricing is a policy miracle: Less traffic, less noise, faster transit, more business sales, more transit revenue. And it hasn’t produced the negative effects outside the cordon zone we were afraid of. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

“You can’t make this up.” - Marsha, making it up

Odd that those criticizing @gtconway.bsky.social for endorsing Diane Seltzer because he isn't a member of the DC Bar, ignore the fact that I have as well and I am a member. Vote Diane Seltzer for DC Bar president.

The fact that the attorney general's last job before this one was lobbying for the Qataris is a little on the nose.

It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

So swampy.

If South Africa is a sovereign nation, how are we able to send our own planes we paid for to transport white Afrikaners to the U.S., but simultaneously unable to send a plane to return Abrego Garcia et al?

Crazy how long this conversation has been going on

🤷🏼‍♂️
