My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA.
I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe.
What's going on right now is not normal.

The Destruction of NASA Would Be a Blow to Our Collective Imagination
As NASA grapples with major proposed budget cuts and losing some of its most brilliant minds, America’s willingness to look outward is also at risk.

Trump and his pedo defenders have completely ignored the survivors - going all the way back to the Alex Acosta non-prosecution agreement (they violated the law by not informing the survivors), to the motions for grand jury materials, to the meeting with convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.

Todd Blanche denied the attorney representing over 20 Epstein victims to attend meeting with Maxwell
Jack Scarola, a lawyer representing roughly 20 Epstein victims, said he asked to attend the Maxwell interviews but was DENIED !!!
Why the secrecy ???

Just days after Paramount settles with Trump for $36 million, the FCC approved its merger in a partisan vote. This timing speaks for itself. This is dark and sad day for the FCC.

The "Dems run a pedophile ring" thing has always, always been primarily about hurting Dems, not about protecting children. If they gave a shit about protecting children they wouldn't harbor so many child sexual abusers at every level of their movement.

Every single story you are hearing from the Everglades Concentration Camp has been and is already taking place in hundreds of prisons and jails in the U.S. That's what PIC abolitionists have been trying to get the public to understand for decades.

Yup. No Disney, no Universal, no Space Center, no beaches. Yes, it will impact jobs, but build a community of support to help each other and let money talk.
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

It is mechanically not possible to bankrupt Medicaid.
Unlike Medicare & Social Security, there’s no pot of money for the program where spending stops if it runs out. Cutting ppl off Medicaid doesn’t leave more for others.
Republicans are cutting Medicaid because they want it to cover fewer people.
