$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
$40B for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
$98M for Trump's golf outings

But no money to lower your healthcare costs.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Republicans work for the billionaires.... and some dems too.

Republicans are threatening a shutdown.
Not to help working people. Not to lower costs.

But to:
👉 Take away health care
👉 Protect billionaire tax breaks
👉 Put corporations over families

That’s right, America is the goldfish.

So many people are hanging on by the thinnest of threads, treat people well. You could just be that thread.

😕 🇺🇸 if this worked we’d be the safest place on earth. Maybe it’s time to try other stuff? Like addressing the root causes, poverty, inequality etc?

Or is that too crazy?

Does this "Make America Great"? Or does it make billionaires richer?
Every time your electricity bill goes up for the next 10 years, it can be traced back to this Administration’s actions.

They are making solar and wind power illegal to build in the United States. They are artificially restricting supply while demand is going up.
The Transportation Department on Friday canceled $679 million in federal funding for a dozen offshore wind projects, the latest attack by the Trump administration on the reeling U.S. offshore wind industry.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Wild how every single day under Trump 2 is a confirmation of the worst fears of what his return to power would mean & yet everyone in a position of power to stop it from 2021 on, or leading nominal formal democratic opposition now, seems to mostly not act like this is a singular unmaking of America

PHILLY DA @dalarrykrasner.bsky.social : “Let's not get lost in his silly distraction from the fact that he doesn't want to give up information on his own involvement in a pedophile ring. Did we all forget about that? Trump is the public safety emergency.”

This is disgusting 🤮
Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice.

Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP just chose to do this.
