My feelings about the news this week and for the next are bringing flashbacks of how I felt as a teenager-all ragey, rejected, and wound tight.
This image keeps coming to mind. God, I miss the Brat Pack.

Let's see if I understand the thesis that bluesky/P2025 posits.
Remove all the workers and those poor enough to qualify for Medicaid.
With tariffs and the world refusing to do business with us, we are forced to build our own factories using machines not workers to make what we need.
Great.

Politicians are liars. Isn't that what the MAGA voters have been saying for decades?
And now they believe their Republican representatives that say it's a good bill for them?
Politicians are liars, MAGA, don't believe yours.

I wonder if Republicans would notice if their social media accounts blew up with follows and unfollows, just to show them that they are being watched more closely than usual.

The BBB is not pro-life. But is pro death.
It is not pro-choice because you cannot choose life.
If you qualify for medicaid because you have no money, you can't pay doctors out of your own pocket.
If you get sick, you can't work nor find a job with health care benefits.
Pro-lifers are liars.

Chris Jansing asked the right question -
"If R's know this bill is bad for the people, won't their voters remove them? Isn't this as relevant a threat at Trump's threat?"
Do R's think elections are rigged in their favor, so they don't have to worry about the people's vote? Only the primary? Yikes.

So we may lose rural hospitals. Will rural doctors set up local ER's to treat the uninsured, so they are not medevaced out and bankrupted?
Or will they continue to bill at full price?
Will doctors take a turn at sacrificing? They do benefit from the BBB, yes?
I haven't heard docs protesting yet.

I wonder how the recent Supreme Court ruling about birthright citizenship will affect #adoption.
I am thinking of a 15 year old who wants to place their child for adoption. Does the mom's status affect this process?
FYI - many young kids don't even know they are undocumented.

My children are still struggling their mother wasn't a perfect person, a perfect parent.
I am still struggling waiting for them to want to know me as a real person and a real parent.
Wait I will, until they are older.
And then they will love me again as when they were 2. As I still love them.

The atheists will tell you this after studying Jesus:
Jesus wanted NOTHING but to get people to help the disadvantaged and vulnerable.
Jesus would support Medicaid, Medicare for all, open borders, progressive tax code.
Proof? He overturned tables, loaves and fishes, Sermon on the Mt., Lazarus

#generalhospital is promoting anti-adoption.
Brooke Lynne's story is showing us that even a closed adoption can be a humiliating disaster.
Society and media is anti-adoption, and they are right! Thank God they are not portraying Brooke Lynne as messed up as most birth mothers are portrayed.

I can't stand RT wing media for the hate thrown at liberals.
Left wing media is now using the same ugly words.
Is BBC and David Muir all that is left for me?
If your 5 year old child was standing next to you, would you still use the same words while creating your podcast of news?

A person outside of our borders can absolutely be brought back by our government.
Our government gets Americans back from other countries all the time. This is one function of embassies.
Why isn't another country offering to take him?
I would find it hilarious if Canada would take him.

Being a young Democrat isn’t enough—I have to prove that I’m ready to fight. I believe in bold leadership, real change, and putting people before politics. I’m not entitled to your support—I have to earn it.

The court system is too slow. Lawyers and judges need to empower their profession by hearing cases and getting orders out more quickly. Get the staff in place, so all things can be expedited. Justice deferred is justice denied. Find a way to fund pro bono work, so justice is accessible to all.

Rep John Larson - Connecticut:
If the Dems appear to be rising up on mass, the Republicans may feel they are losing the people, their power, and their own re-election.
This is the only way for the Republicans in Congress to all revolt against Trump and impeach, convict and remove.
Polling needs to show they can't be re-elected.

What? America (Trumpers) have been raging against Democrats they call "socialists."

Ok, so the fed/Trump tax rate for the top brackets are probably going to pay no taxes. Gotcha.
Can states raise their tax rates on the top brackets? Let the states implement a huge progressive tax system?
I'm ok if the 1% move to the red states to avoid it.
Just an idea. Need opinions on this.
