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.

Israel supported Russia against Ukraine, now it’s trying to invade Syria. What more do you need?
Ukraine resolution at the UN called Russia an aggressor and demands the full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders.
The United States, Israel, and Russia voted against it.
Every free democratic country around the globe voted in favour. #EndImpunity

Update: Elon Musk has now posted several times in support of Georgescu; Trump has also threatened Romania in the last few days trying to pressure them to allow the Russian operative to run for presidency. JD Vance specifically went to Europe to add pressure on this issue.

Update: Prosecutors have recordings of Georgescu's right hand man telling billionaire Frank Timis, that he has Donald Trump’s backing to open up Romanian gold mines. Trump and Musk are connected to Georgescu’s kremlin operation to takeover Romania. Trump also backs the Tate trafficking ring.

Hey everyone. It’s Feb 3rd, and the Democrats have been at home since Jan 24th because the house is out of session.
They should have come back, the place is on fire.
Get suing, messaging, demonstrating, speaking, everything and ANYTHING

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

If you offer an across-the-board buyout to 2 million people, the best have outside options and will take it; the worst have none and will stay.
Either (1) Elon Musk is an idiot, and he doesn't understand adverse selection or worse yet (2) he isn't, he does, and he wants the best gone.

So trump is going to hold funding for things like Medicaid and head start. They really are cruel. While we die and the children starve, the rich are getting richer by not being taxed. You do know their money makes money just sitting there, right? It’s beyond apprehensible.

Why the fuck did the reporters ask IF the Medicaid payments were impacted.
Question should have been:
"What do you say to the tens of millions of Americans cut off from healthcare as a result of the Medicaid shutdown for which Trump is responsible?"

PSA: Take a break from the doom scrolling. One of the most important things you can do today is CALL your elected officials and voice your concerns.
Every call matters as staff keep count of how many care about an issue, which gives officials justification to speak up and fight.

It was shut down in every state.
It means hospitals and doctors won't get paid for services rendered to medicaid patients.
Depending how long it lasts, some hospitals won't be able to pay staff or even stay open long.
