Got rid of my Tesla. Had it since long before we knew Elon was a fascist psychopath and it was paid off. But just couldn’t advertise for Mr. DOGE anymore. Now driving a Polestar 3 and loving it. Also happy I can say to hell with Musk without fearing he might hack my car and kill me.

Looking back over the day’s events, I found it interesting that my reflexive response to the Trump/Vance/Zelensky debacle was not to post on Bluesky but to call my Congressman. Good. That means I’m learning. Making that call should be our ‘new normal’.

The House GOP passed a horrific budget blueprint that would cut $880 BILLION from Medicaid and SNAP—all to pay for huge tax cuts for the rich. To make matters worse, it would add TRILLIONS to the deficit. SIGN HERE to demand the Senate reject this plan!👇

Residents across Florida’s 1st CD depend on Social Security, Medicare, & Medicaid. We can’t let the GOP cut these programs while billionaires get tax handouts. This moment calls for a fighter to represent FL & the country. @gayforcongress.bsky.social is that fighter! #DCFL

Every single Democrat voted against this week’s budget slashing Medicaid. It would have taken just 1 more Republican to join us and kill this dangerous resolution. We must keep putting pressure on Republicans – Medicaid helps all of our districts.

In FL-06, the extreme GOP budget plan threatens: ~154,432 people on Medicaid-including 99,843 children under the age of 19 & 31,000 seniors over 65. ~130,000 who count on SNAP to put food on the table. Vote for Joshua Weil, FL-06! He will work for you, not rich donors.

I called my Republican member of Congress today and told him not to vote for any bill that cuts Medicaid, and not to vote for any procedural vote that could potentially allow cuts to Medicaid. I suggest you do the same, regardless of your Representative's party affiliation. ☎️202-224-3121☎️

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.
