Governments are not meant to pay for themselves. That’s the whole point, as learned by every 4th grader. We pool our money into a government to afford services we could not otherwise afford.

Donald Trump has reportedly spent $18 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration. This is happening as he slashes the federal workforce, guts funding for vital programs, and tees up major cuts to Medicaid to pay for more tax cuts for the rich. Hello?

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is.

During the worst measles outbreak in DECADES, we ABSOLUTELY must invest funding, time, & energy toward understanding why some Americans are hesitant to get the vaccines they need. We want people to get vaccinated so they don't die. It makes NO sense to eliminate this research.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?

In the words of a wise friend: When isolation, trauma & despair are weaponized; building community, helping people heal, & bringing hope are acts of resistance. Connect people. Resist bullies. Protect the vulnerable. Shine light on the fighters. Give yourself & others grace.
