Why did Congressional Republicans jam through an unpopular budget with the largest Medicaid cuts in history?

It could be because nearly 70% of them would financially benefit from the bill's extension of Trump's tax cuts for the rich.

Medicaid covers nearly half of all children born in the country and around two-thirds of nursing home care for seniors.

The Republican Party is voting today on a budget framework with will gut Medicaid to finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.

Hold the fuck on — the Department of Government Efficiency, the entity which claims its mission is to end “wasteful spending”, was given SEVEN MILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS to cover its “expenses” in the span of a single week?!?!

Are you fucking kidding me?!?

Trump just said he’s calling for the full forcible transfer of all 1.8 million Gazans out of the strip and says “The US will take over the Gaza Strip”

Musk & Trump are now backing deporting natural born US citizens that they deem "dangerous" ... how quickly we went from criminal undocumented immigrants to literally anyone.
Trump on American citizens: "If we could these animals out of our country and put them in a different country under the supervision of somebody that made a relatively small fee to maintain these people ... we don't want these people in our country."

Just hours after taking the oath of office, Donald Trump took down reproductiverights.gov — a website to help women find health care and understand their rights.

They’re wasting no time assaulting freedom.

Americans overwhelmingly opposed this.

He did it because he wants to send a signal to far-right domestic extremists all over the country that he will soon call on them to again commit violence to keep him in power—and if they do so well enough, they will face no consequences.

The message is clear.

There’s been talk that if the Tiktok ban was a success, the next target could potentially be Tencent. Huge publisher of games & has a large share of discord.

This shake down of TikTok is Trump’s long con.

Trump started the TikTok ban, but has now flipped-flopped to play the hero while looking to enrich new owners (his donors).

There is nothing in this post about protecting American’s data, Trump’s original justification for the ban.
