Donald Trump is going after small donor fundraising platforms that support progressive candidates, because he knows that while he might have the billionaires, we have the people on our side.

TAX BREAKS FOR BILLIONAIRES = CUTS TO SOCIAL SECURITY The MAGA Republican plan is a slap in the face to everyone, who has worked their whole life for a comfortable retirement. Stealing our hard-earned benefits to reward corrupt billionaires like Elon Musk will hurt them on election day in 2026.

For many years, my friend, @lisaloe.bsky.social has been a fierce advocate for healthcare & now, the trump administration canceled Medicaid for her son who is 100% disabled. He needs another surgery ASAP. Pls consider donating any amt to help cover his medical costs. THANK YOU💙 gofund.me/ff8b1a97

Kamala doesn’t owe us. She was an exemplary Presidential candidate. She offered us a bright future & ran an inspiring campaign. Yet, many couldn’t be bothered to vote-even to save us from THIS. W/ that said, I so hope we will be seeing more of her in the future. We need her voice & leadership.

USA is on the brink of recession due to felon/GOP’s economic RUINATION of the nation! Stocks tanking; price of goods increasing; stagflation + greedflation! Musk’s DOGE federal employee layoffs led to the worst month of layoffs only behind the height of the pandemic! (amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/04/...)

I’m glad he wasn’t there. His hatred and disrespect towards our American military and veterans is well documented and revolting. 🤡 doesn’t deserve to breathe the same air as the grieving families.

It is because @barackobama.bsky.social signed the Affordable Care Act 15 years ago that for the last 9 years I have had the life saving immunotherapy drugs that fight my Chronic leukemia. A drug I will have to take for the rest of my life and I will defend the ACA for the rest of my life.

15 years ago today, President Obama and Democrats signed the transformative Affordable Care Act into law, providing quality health care to nearly 24 million Americans. It remains a lifeline for families across the country, and I’m committed to protecting it from any Republican efforts to repeal it.

Thanks to the Affordable Care Act's Medicaid expansion, millions of Americans have better access to health care. Now, 15 years after the act was signed into law, we are fighting to protect their coverage.

Today the Affordable Care Act turns 15!!! For me it means everything, because I live with incurable leukemia. My medication cost 246k a year for the rest of my life if not for the medicaid expansion I would not be here.

Trump and his Republican enablers in Congress talk big about supporting veterans, but their budget tells the real story: cuts, delays, and broken promises. Republican cuts hurt veterans!

I beg you to share this story because it's a travesty! Vivi, less than 3 months away from graduating, lost her commission to the military under President Trump's bigoted purge of our armed forces. Vivi was in my best friend's son's ROTC detachment & is his friend. www.laloyolan.com/news/she-wan...

Multiple wildfires are forcing evacuations in North Carolina and South Carolina. I don't see any Republicans screeching that they should have raked their forests.

Trump hasn’t done squat to lower grocery prices—he’s not even trying. Barely a month in, and it’s obvious his top campaign promise was never genuine. Families are feeling the squeeze! So this begs the question: did his voters really care about the price of groceries?

We need to keep up the pressure - it's WORKING! Republicans are worried that the people are rising up in their quest to strip Medicaid, while funding tax breaks for their billionaire friends. Republicans need to decide: whose side are they on?

I will not be watching MSNBC anymore, they have fired my favorite broadcaster, @joyannreid.bsky.social. I was furious when they unjustly fired Tiffany Cross. I will no longer be a viewer of a network that has deep racial issues.

I’m pissed extremist republicans have a crazy budget that cuts almost all of MediCaid. Cutting access to my Leukemia drugs just so billionaires have more write offs on their taxes is nuts. Hands Off My MediCaid.

Trump's billionaire donors already pay a lower effective tax rate than the rest of us. Now they want to take away our healthcare to fund their tax cuts? Fuck that BS! Hands off our Medicaid!

Elon Musk is the single biggest beneficiary of U.S. government contracts. Taxpayers are subsidizing the “fire hose of hate and falsehoods” that now appear on X that Musk bought for $44 billion two years ago. Do you see a pattern here? Does this make you angry?
