Why would any elected official vote for legislation that saddles the country with massive amounts of additional borrowing while simultaneously making most Americans sicker, hungrier, and poorer?
Anyone who voted for this bill should be ashamed of themselves.

They vowed to “Make America Healthy Again.”
Instead, they:
Kicked millions of people off health insurance
Closed hundreds of hospitals, nursing homes, and reproductive health clinics
Cut billions of dollars from science research
Fired government scientists and replaced them with antivaxxers

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

There’s a big lawsuit everyone should know about. It’s the one that could boot Elon Musk and the DOGE dudes out of Treasury and kill their access to our payment systems. Learn about it in my write-up: https://buff.ly/4jMI4pO

Elon Musk, an unelected, fascist oligarch, has bought the presidency and is carrying out a swift coup to consolidate power.
We need to have a frank conversation about what has happened, what it will mean, and how we must resist this as individuals.

I wrote about the fascist nightmare of recent weeks, the entirely insufficient response by those who should be in opposition, and how I think we can be our own leaders. Embracing a diversity of oppositional method to face down a gang of thugs who hate all diversity. www.the-reframe.com/its/

Five directional thoughts to align ourselves for the fight ahead. Notice direction, fight upward, ladders downward, look inward, grow outward.
