This is what oligarchy is about.
While planning massive cuts to Medicaid, the Republicans are proposing to provide another $235 billion in tax breaks to the top 0.2% of households through an increase in the estate tax exemption.
The very rich get richer. The poor lose health care. Outrageous.

The war in Gaza has killed or injured 170,000.
Children are starving to death.
Trump is encouraging the ethnic cleansing of 2.2 million people.
Why is there no discussion in the US government about why we are spending billions of taxpayer dollars starving children in Gaza?

NEWS: The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) analysis of various Republican plans for Medicaid spending reveals that, under every scenario laid out by the GOP, millions would lose insurance. The GOP's plans would have a disproportionate impact on low-income and elderly populations.

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect.
This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus.

64 days with no aid reaching Gaza. No food, water or medicine. Children are starving.
Netanyahu’s extremist government now says it will occupy Gaza & put mercenaries in charge of distributing aid, instead of the UN and other aid groups.
Despicable. No more US support for Netanyahu’s war machine.

1. The Arizona legislature passed three anti-trans bills... but they did not become law.
That is because Governor Katie Hobbs has just vetoed all of them.
They would have barred birth certificate updates and banned colleges from mentioning gender identity.

Russian communities are facing a surge in crimes from both returning veterans and criminals using the war to get out of jail. But in Vladimir Putin’s new Russia, soldiers are the new heroes, and tough wartime censorship laws leave little room to criticize them.
Criminals go to fight for Russia and then return home to kill again
In a country with little provision for those suffering from PTSD caused by the horrors of the front, some traumatized veterans return to commit crimes.

"Trump lost against the Maine governor. He lost against Perkins Coie. He loses 80% of cases in court. Which makes those who’ve capitulated look that much more foolish, because if they’d just fought back, they would've retained what they thought they'd lose and their dignity would still be intact."

Renaming Veteran’s Day and the planned “Trump Military Parade” is a playbook straight out of North Korea. Draft-dodging Trump is now flexing the might of the US Military, but its not for our enemies to fear. It’s for you. The administration wants you to fear their Dear Leader.
