This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.
Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds.

We have spent trillions to posture against Russia over the years.
Now we have a chance to send them into the ash heap of history by supporting Ukraine.
It’s a good deal, unless you want Russia to win, in which case god help you

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

More accurate, fewer words;
"There are plenty of contractors going under".
A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.
PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

I’m embarrassed for America today after Trumps distasteful treatment of Zelensky today. With help from Europe, Ukraine destroys Russians economy. Ukraine wins in a year and Trump loses all influence in Europe and Ukraine.

💯 agree.
Without going all Martin Niemöller here, I do think that it's bad not to speak up for immigrants, transgender Americans, civil servants, women, Ukraine, and everyone else the MAGA bullies are going after. We're beyond picking and choosing whom to defend. It's time to stand up and speak out.

Are any Republicans going to stand up to this? We will come back from this and the Republican Party and their members will no longer win elections going forward.

The problem with calls for “discourse,” is that MAGA isn’t interested in an exchange of ideas. It wants to leverage the rules of polite to destroy discourse. It wants to walk in, shout us all down, spit lies, and thumb their noses at us.
Shout “if you’re so tolerant why don’t you tolerate my hate?”

Musk made it impossible to prosecute any Social Security or Treasury fraud. A defense lawyer will bring up that Musks unauthorized access ‘could’ have modified the data. There is no continuity of evidence. All cases will be tossed.
