PR for Trump is all his MAGAts do.

"But a normal prosecutor who was serving in an interim capacity and hadn’t even been nominated for Senate confirmation wouldn’t scream out a press release touting herself as 'the chief federal law enforcement official in the State of New Jersey,' so YMMV."

Republicans have just proposed defunding Planned Parenthood nationwide.

In doing so, they are telling women and people across the country that our healthcare doesn’t matter and that we are undeserving of care.

It’s time to stop this bill in its tracks.

This is utter nonsense

Medicaid is a needs based program

If any American doesn’t have sufficient resources, they qualify-even if they’re working

So if Mike Johnson wants to remove employed, “able bodied young men” from Medicaid, there’s a simple fix

Raise the minimum wage

But of course-he won’t
Mike Johnson: "Medicaid is intended, remember, as a safety net for young pregnant mothers and the elderly and disabled and vulnerable populations, not for young able-bodied men without dependents. Those are the kinds of people we're taking off the program."

Donald Trump betrayed working families by enacting one of the largest tax increases in history. In the process, he destroyed the stock market, and now he’s acting like chaos was always the plan.

He does not know what he’s doing.
