Hands Off - #100DaysUke2025 - Day 22/100
YouTube video by RobinLeaf

Here's my #HandsOff #protestsong from last Saturday.
(I tried to post a vertical video that I made but it needs to be under 3 minutes so I'm going to have to record it again without the double chorus at the end so it fits. I'll post that here later!)

LET THEM EAT EACH OTHER
We should not congratulate Tucker for this. But if the far right thought leaders are fighting amongst themselves, this is a good thing. Trump will slowly get more of the far right to deviate from his agenda, which will bog down the awful things they want to do with infighting

There’s nothing beautiful about a bill that slashes health care, increases hunger, and lowers the income of every American earning less than $51,000 per year.

What. The. Fuck.
Under Trump's new rules, veterans can be refused care by individual doctors just because they are unmarried, are registered Democrats, or identify as LGBTQ.
VA is for ALL veterans, not just whoever Trump says.
Every Senator needs to demand that this policy be reversed.
