Republicans know their agenda is unpopular with the American people.
It would decimate health care and Social Security for so many people.
And they're doing all of this to pay for tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy.

The decision by who, Mike?
This is really great advice!!
"What can I do?"
That is the number 1 question I get asked. And at this time in our democracy -- or what remains of it when public servants put their loyalty to a person above their oaths of office— I am grateful that people are asking that question.
Below is a video with my answer:

I thought I’d look up what other sources of foreign aid the US has other than USAID. The PEW article I was reading is below. It’s interesting that the percentage of the federal budget that we spend on foreign aid is smaller than the amount we borrow each year to cover our expenditures.
What the data says about U.S. foreign aid
The $71.9 billion in foreign aid that the government spent in fiscal year 2023 works out to 1.2% of that year’s total federal spending.
