Beware of incorrect memes attacking some Senators who voted NO, including Gary Peters (MI) & Brian Schatz (HI). They often exclude Tim Kaine (VA) who did vote YES.
These are the 8 people who voted YES. No Vote Schumer is to blame, too, for allowing it. Let's spank or thank the correct Senators!

This video attempts to answer the question everyone is asking: “Can a president remodel or demolish the White House? Technically no.”
Kind of late now. Trump already turned a National Historic Landmark into a pile of rubble.

Trump has decimated funding for Medicaid, SNAP, and crucial agencies like FEMA and the CFPB.
Now, he's demanding his cronies at DOJ give him a ludicrous $230M in taxpayer funds as "compensation" for past investigations.
He's picking your pockets to line his own.

We must go into the streets.
Trump will push the boundaries and go as far as we, the people, let him.
WE CANNOT LET HIM GO ANY FURTHER.
PLEASE find a local No Kings event on Oct. 18th.

Uh oh. Sounds sketchy.
The government’s “sell or be banned” edict on TikTok was always a threat to our free speech, full stop.
Vague, unsupported claims of propaganda shouldn’t be a basis for cutting Americans off from global speakers and audiences.

Dangerous and immoral
SNAP helps 42 million Americans at or below the poverty line afford groceries every month, but under Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill this food assistance risks being taken away or reduced.
Children would go hungry to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. It’s dangerous and immoral.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

So what’s happening with the Republican bill to give the wealthy lots of money and cut the working class and the seniors from food and healthcare? Do we have a smokescreen going up besides the authoritarian style authority grab?
