House Republicans propose to eliminate ALL of Medicaid in their budget resolution. I'm picturing my 88-year-old MIL who was an amputee with severe COPD in a nursing home. How does this work?? Are we trying to put nursing homes out of business?All this for tax cuts to the the wealthy!?

Musk is reportedly spending $40M on Super Bowl ads to inform the American people of all the waste and fraud he's uncovered at federal agencies. #propaganda campaign. Feeding more lies to MAGA.

Now is the time for bold and brave members of Congress to obtain an arrest warrant for Musk, who has illegally seized government computers. This guy was NOT elected or even appointed by Congress. They should NOT sit by and wring their hands or worry about re-election. WTH

Dipping my toes back in here. Please say "hi" and feel free to share any bluesky tips. Best way to find like-minded people? I'm angry beyond words, sad but determined to do what I can to fight the 47 regime. Venting may feel cathartic, but taking action is the only way forward.

Canada...Panama...Greenland. These were not on my bingo card! Do we have to ask why the president-elect would make threats or provocative comments toward sovereign countries? He's a madman!

Let's hope Musk has more luck getting to Mars than he does pushing through massive cuts to federal programs that so many of us rely on.

Ages ago, we used to say, "I wouldn't vote for him for dog catcher." (Today it's animal control.) Peter Hesgeth...I'm looking at you!! ☹️

Tell me again about Biden's failing economy and how it has directly affected you. These numbers paint a very different picture. YES, the cost of eggs is high, but that's mostly due to Avian Flu that has killed 75 million birds, not because of Biden's policies.

Don't argue...Eva Cassidy was ( 😥) the best female vocalist of my lifetime.

Bondi was passed over in 2017 because she was considered too "tainted." Now she's considered a safe, fallback choice. How low we've sunk!

Stupid question...how do I expand my feed here beyond the interests I selected when signing up? The Explore tab doesn't seem to be doing it. A majority of what I'm seeing is about books and reading?

I'm reading there's a People's March on Washington planned for January 18th, two days before drump's inauguration. Judging by lots of comments (more than a few trolls, I think) many are saying a march is pointless. Our power was at the ballot box and we squandered it. What's your take on this? ⬇️

A majority of American voters appear to lack critical thinking skills. Many have bought a false narrative, based on lies that defy common sense. Is this a failure of our public education system, as some suggest, or the result of far-right efforts to de-legitimize and defund public education?

Let's look on the bright side this week: ** The Onion bought InfoWars, sending Alex Jones blubbering to his attorneys. ** I found out I qualify for a cabinet position. What would you add?
