Official account of the DeKalb County Indiana Democratic Party: the few, the proud, the Democrats! Likes do not mean endorsement.
Since Trump is now keen on impeaching federal judges, maybe he could start with the outrageously corrupt Clarence Thomas (seen here with his loan-forgiven $250k motorhome). #MAGA

When Trump blasts a government program as "waste, fraud or abuse" there's a good chance he's lying, exaggerating or distorting. (Actually, anytime he talks he's probably lying, exaggerating or distorting!) https://shorturl.at/xfVFO

Raise your hand if your vote for Donald Trump was because you wanted him to cut financial support for education.

Didn't think so. https://shorturl.at/wMMfd

The Big Lie, 2025 version: cutting "waste, fraud and abuse" will balance the budget. The truth: they'll never pay for Trump's multi-trillion-dollar tax cuts for billionaires and large corporations. You can't find anywhere near that amount from the 15% discretionary spending.

The MAGAs will deride this story as left-wing alarmism. It isn't. Our ecosystem is delicately balanced, and climate change is disrupting the balance in subtle ways. Butterflies (and bees) are vital links in our food chain. https://shorturl.at/aOMXS

In his 99-minute oration, Trump spent all of 90 seconds on inflation … and about 5 minutes on protecting us from transgender women in sports. #Priorities #Misdirection #FlimFlam

This foolish/stupid/dump/duplicitous decision will add untold billions to the federal deficit for making it so much easier for rich tax cheats (like Trump) to avoid paying up. But then - that's the reason they're doing it. https://shorturl.at/tTpKN
The IRS is drafting plans to cut as much as half of its 90,000-person workforce, AP sources say
The IRS is drafting plans to try to cut its workforce of roughly 90,000 people in half through a mix of layoffs, attrition and incentivized buyouts, according to two people familiar with the situation and not authorized to speak on the record.

From Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal:
"We’ve courted Mr. Trump’s ire by calling the Mexico and Canada levies the “dumbest” in history, and we may have understated the point. Mr. Trump is whacking friends, not adversaries."

It's safe to say the 2024 elections were NOT a mandate to cut spending for healthcare. But that's the "mandate" being advanced by Republicans in the U.S. House who voted UNANIMOUSLY for cuts in Medicaid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1lUHQyk_44
