Still wondering what you can do? Here’s your answer for Black Friday Week: don’t support companies that don’t support you. Stop financing your own oppression. We ain’t buying it.

Sure, narrative control is side benefit, but seems wrong to claim Trump's motive in taking over DC is to distract from his failures & crimes. That's the calculus of a politician trying to win elections. His agenda is to seize ultimate power so he need not have to bother with courting votes.

Trouble with having focused on Medicaid alone, instead of naming horror show #MAGAMurderBill, attacking it as financing fascist assault to abduct our neighbors, steal our healthcare, seize more power, is that Medicaid provisions go into effect AFTER midterms.

And it has zero senators. If D.C. had senators, the GOP megablil bill would have failed today.
Instead, Murkowski got carve-outs and money for Alaska, and then voted to subject DC to the bill
