Duckworth: "He's accepting a bribe, which is unconstitutional and illegal. And he's gonna accept an aircraft that then is gonna cost taxpayers another billion dollars at a time when he wants to cut funding for Medicaid. It's simple unacceptable."
I was reading up on the history of diphtheria and ran across this interesting fact.
Kitty bliss. Happy Friday!
This is real
They pit us against each other so that they can rob us blind while we fight over the literal scraps.
AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.
100 days of Trump 2.0 and what do we have? Mass deportations, pardons for insurrectionists, federal purges, economic whiplash, and tariffs choking families.
This ain’t leadership—it’s vengeance in a suit. He’s not rebuilding America, he’s gutting it.
Please pay attention
Shoulda known this was an omen: #United gave out Xmas cocktail napkins with the one snack on what turned out to be a 12-hour trip back from
LA.
I’m not normally a bird watcher, but I was thrilled to catch a blue suited twit sleeping away the day.
The Narcan Program Has Saved Thousands Of Lives! This Is Barbaric!
‼️Trump’s approval rating on the economy at the 100 Days mark has plummeted, with 53% of Americans saying the economy has gotten WORSE since Trump took office.
Oh but Moses Mike is ok
And the "White Christian HYPOCRITES
Offering folks $5,000 to have a baby is wild—especially when y’all are the same ones trying to slash SNAP and Medicaid. The very benefits millions of Americans rely on to survive.
Since when did raising a baby only cost $5,000?
Trump’s ICE deported 3 American kids.
One is 4 years old with stage four cancer.
Another’s mom is pregnant.
No meds. No prenatal care. No due process.
This ain’t “tough on immigration”—it’s sick.
MAJOR BREAKING: In a bold move, Michigan Congressman Shri Thanedar just introduced articles of impeachment against President Trump for tearing it down and endangering our democracy.
“Trump ignores the Constitution, Congress, and the courts.”
If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.
Phillip: But as the economy is suffering, new polls are showing that his support is in fact eroding, particularly among young men. And it's lies like these that people aren't buying anymore.
WE ARE GETTING SCREWED.
Happy Friday. #UnionsForAll
Democratic Governor Tony Evers has successfully increased school funding for the next 400 YEARS in Wisconsin by crossing out a few numbers in a bill to change it from “2024–25” to “2425.”
The state Supreme Court just upheld his right to do so.
Put aside the lies and the open defiance of the Supreme Court, as well as the cruelty, and ask yourself: who talks like this? This is the *official* account of the *White House* - is it being run by a six year old?
Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.
This!!!! Repost!!!
Tell it like it is
Justice Sotomayor, writing in today's deportation case. How many times must she write, "With fear for our democracy, I dissent," before Republicans get the point? Perhaps only when, as the poem goes, they come for them.
I wish I knew how I could edit my comments. That is supposed to read Avon Lake not twin Falls.
Absolutely. Great. News. 😎
Let’s. Do. This. ✨
