The richest 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

If “innocent until proven guilty” isn’t worth fighting for, then we might as well just give up now.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

No plan to lower health care costs. No solutions to bring down prescription drug prices. Not a single mention of Medicaid, which covers more than 72M Americans. Trump has no answers for the health care crises facing working families—because they’re the ones making it worse.

Here’s an idea: If “waste, fraud and abuse” are actually being uncovered, could we see a couple examples that can be investigated and confirmed by an independent 3rd party? Because I believe DOGE is theater.

Our stock market is crashing. Our economy is contracting. Our government is dismantling. Our allies are fleeing. Our grocery prices are rising. But at least we now call it "The Gulf of America." So it all evens out.

Eliminating SNAP in order to give tax breaks to billionaires is pretty evil stuff and literally the opposite of “making America healthy.”

“You’re terminated because…?” Fired federal employees are telling their stories—no deep state, just career public servants tossed aside. DOGE’s mass firings aren’t about efficiency—they’re gutting expertise, wrecking lives, and calling it “reform.”

America is cutting $880 billion from Medicaid to force poor people to die so billionaire's can yacht. We are such an amoral, Christian Nationalist country that hates the teachings of Jesus.

I'm looking to see if the cuts & chaos at CDC and NIH have affected any clinical trials or research for drugs for the treatment of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or other serious diseases. If you know anything, please contact me at DavidCorn.99 at Signal. Or if you have any other good stories.

Rural communities like mine will not have a Hospital if Medicaid cuts are enacted Property values will plummet and everyone will be forced to drive 50 miles over mountain passes in either direction to get to a Hospital There would be no more Life Flights either #SaveMedicaid

My heart breaks at news of another horrific plane crash. I'm praying for the families of the victims & people of Arizona. It's vital the government thoroughly investigate this tragedy to bring peace to the victims and families and protect everyone flying in the US. abcnews.go.com/US/2-dead-af...

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to have Pete Buttigieg's salary reduced to $1 in November 2023. Does she think Sean Duffy should keep his job if planes can't manage to stay in the sky?

Electing him once was bad enough but might have been chalked up to a bizarre mistake. Having re-elected him, nobody can assume any sort of stability or consistency necessary for partnership from the US ever again. Credibility is destroyed and rightfully so.

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.
