GOP politicians passed a bill to defund Medicare & Medicaid by hundreds of billions of dollars.

But don't worry about them - they'll get to keep their precious taxpayer-funded healthcare coverage. And Republican Sugar Daddy Elon Musk will get his tax cuts…

Republicans say they’re targeting just criminals and gang members.

Bullsh*t.

They’re targeting anyone who “looks illegal”. And it will only get worse. They need to make their 3,000 a day quota no matter what.

Others may have already said this, but I want to put it out there anyway.

Democrats should be sponsoring bills in these areas immediately:

1 - Medicare for all (just saw that was just done)

2 - Minimum wage increase to $15 per hour and tied to CPI

1/?

CDC insiders just told me:

RFK Jr. has now ordered California to offer $25 gift cards to push bird flu testing. Some clinics are giving them to people who get swabbed for bird flu or take a regular flu shot.

This comes after I exposed him publicly.

This is what happens when you break the silence.

I’m still waiting for the peace Trump promised to negotiate within 24 hours after being elected. So far, Putin still seems to think it’s still a good idea to attack his neighbour country.

Dear World,

I’m an American. I apologize to you all that we put a thoroughly bad, cruel, ignorant madman back in the White House. Many, many Americans apologize. Don’t appease him, don’t coddle him. Stand up to him & punch back at his stupidity.

Best,

No single person should have the power to do what Trump is doing right now unilaterally dictating world trade & fucking with the world economy. No person should have that power. Certainly not in this country. Shame on you Congressional Republicans for giving it to him. Shame on you.

I’m 26 years old and I’m running for Congress in an open seat special election!! We need new energy!

I’ll make sure we’re one seat closer flipping the house so we can be a BRICK WALL to Trump’s anti-America agenda.
