Democrats would be crazy not to make this comment super-famous tomorrow when the Senate debates health care. Republicans don’t want you to be cared for as a patient when you’re sick. They think of you as a “consumer”—and tough luck if you don’t have the money for the care you need.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

Ossoff: "She got her new insurance quote & it's $700 more per month than what she's paying now. She's diabetic. She had surgery a few months ago for something else. She told me she cried again bc she realized she's gonna have to cancel her insurance. She believes she might die bc of a policy choice"

I don't see anyone talking about this on Bluesky.

Vulcan Elements backed by Donald Trump Jr. is getting a $620 million loan from the Pentagon.

Our government is essentially a slush fund for Trump and everyone in his orbit.

Trump says it's an A++++ economy. He's right. His billionaire friends have never had it better.

If you're a working class person:
👉60% live paycheck to paycheck
👉Grocery prices at record highs
👉Premiums to double for 20+ million

The economy must work for all, not just the 1%

The only thing that I will say about the speech from the Current Occupant of the White House last night, other than him seeming old and in poor health, is that it just doesn't work anymore.

For my Happy Days friends who know the phrase, he has "jumped the shark."

Despite differing backgrounds, I found a lot of my colleagues from the first Trump administration ended up with roughly the same view of the president:

He’s a terrible person. A wrinkly-suit slop tart, incapable of empathy or rational thought.

His speech last night showed it.

Hell yes, Democratic candidate Eric Gisler just won the HD-121 special election in Georgia and has officially flipped the seat from red to blue in a district that the orange felon won by 12 points, a major surprising upset. Much more of this please. 💙👊

So, Trump’s plan is to give a $2K one time payment to Americans instead of to insurance companies, but Americans are supposed to use the $2K to buy insurance from insurance companies.

Did I get that right?

Not only is it willfully insufficient for people’s healthcare needs, but it’s nonsensical.

Trump has repeatedly put farmers out of business. Has driven up their costs for everything, including labor. Has them begging him for welfare every year. Tells them he knows more about their business than they do. Lies to them. And they still vote Republican and send him money.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.

Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

Corruption on display.

Trump is using your taxpayer dollars to fix a mess he created after his tariffs nearly put so many farmers out of business.

And meanwhile, his tariffs are still inflating your grocery bills. The American people deserve better.
Breaking news: President Trump plans to announce a $12 billion relief assistance package for farmers, a key segment of his base, according to a White House official.

Trump's reckless tariffs have been crushing farmers.

He found $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

But only $12 billion to help the farmers hurt by his policies.

You deserve better.
