My ex is 3 months behind. Project 2025 will give him the tax credit for her. Really all they want to do is punish single mothers and force women to marry. IMHO

Trump and Musk are going after Social Security, Medicaid, the VA, and public education.
In what universe, in what world, in what religion is it morally acceptable to cut programs for hungry children in order to reward the wealthy?

I have talked to veterans all over the country. They’re not happy that, when the VA is already understaffed, Musk wants to dismember the VA by laying off 83,000 employees.
A commitment has been made to those who put their lives on the line to defend us. We must not betray them.

Trump on NATO: "If the United States was in trouble and we called them. We said, 'We got a problem, France.' Do you think they're gonna come and protect us? Hmm. They're supposed to. I'm not so sure." (Literally the only time NATO Article 5 was invoked was after 9/11 on behalf of the US.)

Musk says millions of dead people get Social Security. That's a lie. Here's the truth: 30,000 people die a year waiting for an understaffed Social Security to approve disability benefits. Musk's plan to cut Social Security's staff by 50% will make this tragic reality even worse.

Democracy is burning, and we need sites like Bluesky more than ever. And Senator Durbin wants to repeal 230, which would massively stifle the ability of sites like Bluesky to exist, while massively empowering X and Meta.
Why?
It seems that someone in his office doesn't understand 230.

It’s time to repeal Section 230. We must be able to take social media companies to court for addicting kids and enabling drug trafficking on their platforms.

Someone needs to explain to our Sec of Commerce how capitalism works.
America has a GLOBAL TRADE SURPLUS on services. Services have the highest margins and profits of our exports. That is where capital and expertise focused.
It is why we dominate in tech globally.

More detentions will lead to more deaths, but the Trump Administration has options to conceal the losses.
