Political extremes didn’t just divide the country, they left a massive group feeling powerless, unheard, and angry.

Many are now radical, some are just fed up with being caught in the crossfire. #50501movement

🚨 H.R.1 slashes Medicaid tools that keep EMS afloat—cuts provider taxes, ends GEMT recovery, disallows retroactive coverage. Rural & low-income EMS will collapse without help. Congress must act now. Fund EMS before it’s too late #EMSfunding #OneBigBill

Marjorie Taylor Greene really is America’s Dolores Umbridge—smiling while writing policies in pink that somehow manage to punish everyone and fix nothing. All that’s missing is a kitten plate and a blood quill. 🐈📜 #MinistryOfMisinformation

A 22-year-old is making top-level decisions in government?
Sounds about right for the Trump administration where experience is optional, tantrums are policy, and maturity is left at the rally stage door. #50501movement

Medicare pays ~$329 per ambulance run. It costs EMS ~$2,600. Now imagine cutting even that. The math isn’t just bad—it’s deadly. #FundFirstResponse #StopMedicareCuts

Last year Approximately 80% of rural America is considered medically underserved, with limited access to emergency services. Cuts to Medicare and Medicaid could exacerbate this, leading to longer response times of EMS.

Trump’s budget slashes $163B from public services—health, education, climate—while boosting defense to $1.01T. SpaceX wins missile shield contract, as NASA faces a 25% cut. DOGE claims $160B saved, but cost taxpayers $135B.

My immigrant grandparents never became U.S. citizens, no one knew why.

Still, my grandfather was a sheriff and business owner. My grandmother helped drive out the KKK.

How many untold stories like theirs are out there?

We are at the point in history where Germany is having to lecture the US on the need to fight fascism.
A post by Marco Rubio attacking Germany for tackling the alt right extremism of the AfD. The German foreign office responds. Rubio’s posts says: Germany just gave its spy agency new powers to surveil the opposition. That's not democracy—it's tyranny in disguise. What is truly extremist is not the popular AfD-which took second in the recent election—but rather the establishment's deadly open border immigration policies that the AfD opposes. Germany should reverse course. The German foreign office responds with: This is democracy. This decision is the result of a thorough & independent investigation to protect our Constitution & the rule of law. It is independent courts that will have the final say. We have learnt from our history that rightwing extremism needs to be stopped.
