We’re giving $40 billion to Argentina.

This is $5 billion MORE that the entire USAID budget that DOGE cut.

It is the people’s house. It isn’t a palace. The decor and the renovation have to go with the next administration. We are the landlords and they are the temporary tenants. #ThePeoplesHouse #Forget47

Has anyone thought that neurodivergence is an evolutionary advantage in our current environment.

So let me get this straight, the party of limited government is using its power in the government to restrict actual constitutional freedoms. How is this not raising red flags in the mainstream GOP?

I have only read a few articles about the CR that needs to be passed by the 30th to avoid a government shutdown, but all of them mentioned over $80 million dollars in additional funding for security for political figures in the three branches. Seems a bit excessive. Are they making cash body armor?

Someone needs to hear this: The government was created to serve the people; not to operate like a business profiting from us……. It’s meant to work for us, not exploit us. Read that again until it sinks in.

I know if I need to hear it, then someone else probably does too. Cutting off friends and family for voting for Trump is hard. In the end, they don't have the same morals and values that you hold dear. It may get lonely but there are other people who can and will care for you

Really tired of being anxious to look at my phone in the morning.

Really sick of avoiding people because they might be a bigoted, white, conservative nazi.

Really disgusted I now have to think about what I say out of concern I might be persecuted by my own Government.

None of this is normal.

I don't even know what to say about the stupidity seen in the Signal chat. I wouldn't share that information with anyone who wasn't on a need-to-know basis, and I don't even have a security clearance. This is the dumbest timeline of the marvel universe. #MakeItStop #SomeoneNeedsToResign

Unique to America, our health care system is designed not to make people well, but to make CEOs & wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. The result: We have the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy country on earth. How cruel, how immoral is that? We need Medicare for All.

The Only People Who Will Benefit From Slashing the Federal Workforce Are the Rich.

What is being sold to the people as an exercise in efficiency is no more than the deliberate erosion of state capacity to pay for new tax cuts.

It is all about making a better oligarchy.

Cannot be more disappointed in Democratic leadership in the senate @schumer.senate.gov . As someone who would have directly been affected by a shutdown, I now fear for my job more that you passed cloture than if you had voted against it. #ThanksButFuckYou #shouldhaveshutitdown #listentothepeople
