Republicans have been ordered by their billionaire Puppet Master to end Medicare as we know it.
Democrats have 215 members in the House who can stop this extreme effort.
All we need is three House Republicans to join us.

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.
