RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history
BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

In 2023, the United States budgeted $12.8 billion to build new affordable housing. We’re about to spend nearly four times on detention centers what we spend on housing. https://trib.al/hHq48nP
Are We About to Have Labor Camps in the United States of America?
If you think that’s far-fetched, then you really haven’t been paying attention to what the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress have been up to lately.

ICE is soon to become the highest-funded federal law enforcement agency in US history, with more money than the federal prison system, the FBI, and the Drug Enforcement Administration combined.
Here's what that will logistically look like.

We asked Trump’s former prisons chief how $45 billion will reshape immigrant detention
We also asked an ACLU attorney, a private prisons expert, and the ex-commissioner of New York City's jails.

it beggars belief
If you don’t think this moment of symbolism is 100% deliberate, you haven’t been paying attention.
The Speaker surrendering his gavel is purposeful, self-subjugation to the “King”. Congress betraying its role & yielding its power.
All on #July4th too.

This president cares nothing about real people. He only cares about getting richer and helping his friends and family get rich.
Hundreds of communities are struggling after Trump canceled $4.5 billion in local projects designed to protect neighborhoods from flooding, hurricanes and other disasters.
Cities lose hope for restarting disaster projects killed by Trump
The president canceled $4.5 billion in FEMA grants that helped communities prepare for rising disaster damage.

This is not Fallujah, Iraq. It’s a Walmart parking lot in LA. Look at how many heavily armed, masked men (on our dime btw) come for a young guy in a Walmart uniform. This is obscene.
