84% cuts. This is sociopathic, unjustified cruelty. How does this make anything better?

Leaders from Egypt, Jordan and other Arab states met in Saudi Arabia to discuss alternative plans for Gaza's future than the one laid out by President Trump, which calls for displacing Palestinians.

What a sad situation. I wish she had known better. He's a sperm donor, not a father. Here's the filing iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewD...

#DontCutMyMedicaid DON'T ! I currently suffer from stage 4 Melanoma. I'm on medicare, medicaid and SSDI . My son suffers from cystic fibrosis at one point in his life his pulmonary function dropped down to a dangerous 19 %, he was on Medicaid. DON'T TOUCH OUR HEALTH CARE Many Americans agree.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Power of the people…

Polite reminder: More people voted *against* Trump than voted for him. Please don't comment on cuts to VA programs with "they voted for it!" You're making assumptions with no exceptions. You wouldn't say that to federal workers being laid off... even though some of them voted for Trump.

Here it comes. The #TrumpDepression

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

Just a reminder that Social Security is not just for elders. SSDI, Social Security Disability is also going to be affected and anyone who has applied will tell you it is very hard to be approved and can take months or years. Documents must be provided, interviews held. It is onerous already.

He nails it.

Medicare stops access to #Telehealth April 1st for almost all. [Even rural pts must drive to a 🏥 office 1st & THEN get telehealth.] This will lead to: 1️⃣ less access to specialty care 2️⃣ poorer outcomes 3️⃣ higher costs for people with cancer #Telemedicine was a step forward. Let's not fall back.

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

A lesson in how claims of meritocracy as justification for opposing DEI are often cover for the demand that we return to a system of preference for white men - whatever their qualifications. Fire a qualified Black man. Hire a statutorily unqualified white man. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

STATEMENT: “This Is The Move Of A Weak And Insecure Tyrant, Not A Strong Commander-in-Chief”

I’m for disclosure and avoidance of ALL financial conflicts of interest. What RFK Jr. ands his antivax cronies will do will be simply to shift conflicts of interest from Big Pharma to Big Supplement, Big Wellness, and Big Quackery.

THIS IS A MUST READ A NEW DOGE MOMENT LIAR IN CHARGE promised no touching SOCIAL SECURITY but cutting staff and offices WILL ONLY WREAK HAVOC

@counseloroh.bsky.social Hi there Following for excellent bio.

If you haven't yet, make an account with Social Security dot gov. See how much you've paid into SS over your lifetime. It's YOUR money that you've loaned to the government until your retirement. It's not a fucking "entitlement" beyond the fact that only YOU are entitled to it. Elon Musk is not.

While the U.S. House and Senate debate their own differing budget bills, there's one key date to watch: March 14th. If there's no budget or budget extension by that deadline, the government shuts down.

VIEWER FEEDBACK: A touching note about kindness... and then a message from X/Twitter

Kegan was fully funded in 49 minutes!!! 🎉 Thank you so much to everyone who donated to this girl’s care today. We’re keeping an eye on her and will pupdate you on her progress here ❤️‍🩹

Stealing the infrastructure we paid for. They're treating blue states and cities like we're conquered territory to be plundered.

'Danger': Secret Service reportedly alarmed over 'lovestruck' Trump aide's 'obsession': Secret Service agents have become concerned that one of Donald Trump's aides – known as the "human printer" – could become a “potential danger to herself as well as to the president,” according to a new book.…

Love this guy. He appeared on the Mueller, She Wrote podcast in 2018. Hell of an activist.

A great example of the many ways you can kill an agency without eliminating it. Pull the funding, stop paying their rent, recall their equipment for “maintenance” and slow roll replacing it. It’s death by administrative paper cuts.

Just more proof that this Administration doesn’t care if we survive it…

Trump celebrated his first month in office by declaring himself the king of the United States. Mike Pence stood up to Trump, are there any more Republicans willing to do the same and stop this lunatic? #ProudBlue #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpIsARussianAsset
