The state of the union is that Trump fired cancer researchers and forest service rangers.
He's letting Elon Musk smash the Social Security Administration into pieces.
And he is pushing Congress to pass more tax giveaways for billionaires while destroying Medicaid.

Trump and Elon are destroying the Social Security Administration, and without staff & offices, there will be people who can’t get their benefits—period.
I put together a fact sheet about what Elon's decimation of Social Security will mean for YOU.
Please share it far and wide.

The threat of the bird flu is GROWING because the federal workers tracking and responding to the disease were fired by a smugly uninformed billionaire.
YOUR health is at risk and egg prices will keep skyrocketing because Elon and Trump have ZERO clue who they are firing.

worth saying again that this was a bait and switch. if trump had openly announced he was running on allowing companies to discriminate against women and minorities he would not have won wapo.st/43aVQg1
Trump officials start dismantling civil rights offices, as part of DOGE’s secret plan
Legal experts said that unwinding a civil rights-era bulwark designed to safeguard employees’ rights removes a crucial check on institutional power.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

It's past midnight, and Senate Republicans are voting NO against every Democratic-led amendment to PROTECT HEALTH CARE for our families.
Pay close attention: Republicans are working to push kids off Medicaid to pass MORE tax cuts for billionaires.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

And most importantly, imagine if Biden asserted that he alone controlled which funds would be spent, overturning the Constitution and the law, and blocked all payments to military contractors, law enforcement agencies, private prisons, energy companies, and faith-based service providers
Imagine if
-prosecutors who brought cases against Hunter Biden were purged
-Soros employees took control of govt. payment and personnel systems
-Executive order redefined 2nd Amendment by fiat
-Every violent crime during a BLM protest was pardoned
-People paid Biden millions for favorable treatment
