Is anyone else feeling like this fun little experiment called democracy in this country is over? Now I’m reading that congressional Republicans are being told to NOT have anymore town hall meetings. How else do we voice our displeasure? Trump has it all, senate, congress and military. We’re screwed

Attention working-class Americans: Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security. Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

“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.”

Warren: Donald Trump ran for office saying he would cut costs for ordinary families. Remember his words on day one? Now we're in the second month and what we're watching is cuts for billionaires in their taxes, but paid for by driving up costs for middle class families

20% of Americans are on Medicaid. Many of them live in red states and are Trump voters. Republicans just voted to kill Americans to make Musk and billionaires more money.

A group calling itself the 3rd Term Project is calling for a Constitutional Amendment to let Trump have a third term in office. This move is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. We should take it seriously. The man who would be king certainly does. joycevance.substack.com/p/speaking-t...
