That’s the entire budget of Medicaid. They’re killing this vital service.

Shut the government down, Democrats.
BREAKING: House Republicans have released their budget resolution. They are aiming to cut Medicaid by at least $880 billion, and cut SNAP by at least 20%.

Curious. Reddit is very full of relatively active and correct information. Keep an eye out for this, we'll see how it pans out.

Blue Sky needs to create a verification system for politicians and real journalists so more will migrate to this platform.

America is in BIG trouble and about 35% of the population is denying it. It'll hit their pockets but they'll still blame Democrats despite us holding no majority power. And WW111? They went w/ the axis of evil. Enjoy.

I don't remember Jimmy Carter as President, my first memory of that office was Reagan (bleck), but may he rest in peace. He did a lot of good in his after Presidency to deserve the respect of everyone. I hope he banned Trump from his funeral like McCaine did.

Elon Musk thinks he can control the world, not just the US, it's time to stop him even if it means donating something as small as $3.00 to Wikipedia, a site he's trying to destroy.
If you've never donated to Wikipedia, now's the time. Elon Musk is attacking it because it's one of the only sources of honest, curated information that he can't control.

I had no idea Musk was targeting Wikipedia when I donated yesterday, makes me feel happy I did so. It was a small sum but something is better than nothing.
Just did the same.
I’ve never donated to Wikipedia before but I set up a small monthly donation as a fuck you to the world’s richest psychopath.

South African billionaire Elon Musk has endorsed a far-right political party in Germany, connecting some of the worst influences from two of the most hateful countries of the 20th century.

OTD in 2021 my parody foreign ministry denied any preparations against Ukraine or aggressive intentions.

She was half right. We weren’t prepared.

Fascism was bad in the 1930s and 40s. Could it be better this time?

Another brilliant piece by @timothysnyder.bsky.social.

Previously, he dubbed the incoming regime #Trumpomuskovia.

Here he explains why we need this special term for the rulers we face.

Words matter.

Prepare to be absolutely not shocked.
SCOOP: Tim Ryan, a former U.S. Congressman, was paid $250,000 last year by a fossil fuel lobbying group to promote methane gas as "clean energy"

Ryan promoted gas on MSNBC as recently as last week, with no disclosure of his position with the lobbying group

From me and @ariellesamuel.bsky.social
Reminder: Tim Ryan is a paid fossil fuel mouthpiece
The next time you see this man on MSNBC giving Democrats advice in a football sweatshirt, remember: he’s paid $250,000 a year to hype up methane gas.
