Every once in a while I tell people from other countries about how the health insurance system works in the US and they are aghast. Yesterday a guy straight up didn’t believe me when I said people can die because of not being able to afford medicine. He was sure I meant in the distant past.

The bill is so much more than taxes & cuts. Not surprisingly, it's not being covered enough. It cements every aspect of P25 for the next 10 years. Huge increases in military. More money on "immigration" (really more deportations). IRS changes to small businesses. And so on. Horrible.
Do any of those "ways to persuade women to have more children" involve maternity leave, subsidized childcare, strict child support enforcement, increased SNAP benefits, paid pregnancy care, researched into improved maternal/fetal outcomes, and housing subsidies? No? HOW ODD.
Fuck Stephen Miller and Tom Homan to hell. Goddamn bastards, both of them.
This is horrific 😡😡😡
When you don’t have to worry about where your next meal is coming from sure otherwise this is moronic.😡😡😡😡

This really begs the question: Is this how Trump and Musk keep their company books? Money lost intentionally or due to incompetence? Have either of them as private citizens ever been seriously and thoroughly audited?

I'm a teacher who got financial aid. Sadly, now, Trump & the DOGE dipshts are destroying the Dept of Ed.
They cut the specialists responsible for reviewing financial assistance programs at colleges & an outreach student aid team on financial literacy eliminated.

Exactly!
What kind of blithering idiot destroys a booming economy in just 5 weeks? For the second time!? The Trump kind.
You may not care, but I do. Is Trumpism driving a generation to leave this country? My daughter will study abroad next year and is already researching where to live and work internationally after graduation because of Trump.
Same with some of her classmates. It breaks our hearts, but I get it.
you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.
We know some Tennessee folks that might take @timwalz up on this offer 👀

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
Russia could release a weaponized version of any disease and end us right now. We have never been weaker.
So much winning
DOGE is a waste of taxpayers' dollars. Pass it on...
DO NOT BAIL THEM OUT, Dems!!! YOUR CONSTITUENTS DEMAND YOU GROW A SPINE!!
