During COVID, we learned the hard way that nearly all our hospital PPE i.e. masks, gowns, gloves comes from China. A 104% tariff could send us straight back to pandemic-level shortages or drive healthcare costs even higher.🫠

GRIFFIN: “.. it’s going to cost you 20%, 30%, 40% more for your groceries, for your toaster, .. for a new car. .. Even if the dream of jobs coming back to America plays out, that’s a 20-year dream. It’s not 20 weeks. It’s not two years. It’s decades.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

You’d think when you’re claiming the richest country in the world can’t afford childhood cancer research you might wait a year before throwing yourself a 100 million dollar birthday parade. But carpe diem, suckers.

This should be illegal for ANY politician.

Marielitos selling their race.

When billionaires lose even half their stock value, they still sleep in mansions and fly privately. When regular people face even a 10% drop in income or a spike in expenses, they struggle to put food on the table for their kids. This is the reality of the world we live in.

For fucks sake. The Supreme Court is no longer the peoplE’s anything. It’s been bought as a tool for the king.

“We had literally 5-7 times as many people show up as RSVPs in most of the places where we held marches. What we were hearing throughout the day was the biggest problem that organizers of these marches were having…was that too many people were showing up.” - @leahgreenberg.bsky.social on #handsoff

Veterans getting fired, social security is at risk, and Elon is telling you what you don’t need in govt, all while he just got a $6billion space x contract today! He makes money on you!

Here’s the real reason why DOGE is gutting the IRS. (Hint: it has nothing to do with “efficiency.”)

NEW: The Supreme Court took 6 months to decide immunity, but just 6 days to effectively strip the rest of us of due process. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-corrup...

Texan yall need to get LOUDER

Tepid anger?

The SAVE Act is a slap in the face to our military heroes and Native American communities. Military IDs and Tribal IDs won't be accepted as proof of citizenship, making it harder for these groups to exercise their right to vote. #HandsOffHerVote social.demcast.com/s/pGaB4hLI

MMR vaccine doesn’t just prevent measles, mumps, and rubella. It also prevents RFK Jr. from showing up at your child’s funeral to exploit your grief at your most vulnerable moment.

What makes this visual even more stunning is that it was made possible by people who said their #1 concern when voting was the economy. What idiots.

This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode the deficit. 3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat. They're trying to get away with it again.

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

This really made me laugh.

YES!!

Absolutely all of this with a side of GOP enabling

Campaigning on Ed rights back to states (the never left btw) then requiring all state ed departments to cut DEI initiatives, w/o specifics to what that means, in 10 days or lose fed funds is insane. These people are horrible
