Attention working-class Americans:
Republicans’ new budget does NOT include no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, or no tax on Social Security.
Instead it protects tax handouts for billionaires and makes way for the largest Medicaid cut in history.

Trump and Elon Musk Just Pulled Off Another Purge—and It’s a Scary One
Did Musk’s alleged effort to access the government’s payment systems have Trump’s blessing? Or was he going rogue? Either scenario is bad, but one’s a little worse.

Every Democrat should make it ABUNDANTLY CLEAR that when the right uses the codeword DEI, what we should all be hearing is “Civil Rights.”
Get in front of those cameras and scream “Folks, the right is trying to blame the Civil Rights movement for this accident. We know better.”
Rinse. Repeat.

I think it would better, instead of adopting the MAGA framing, to call out specifically what they are saying. They are not blaming “DEI.” They are blaming Blacks, other minorities, women, and people with disabilities. It’s called scapegoating.

Donald Trump nominated Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel because he wants to show Republicans that he is the boss. That he can strip them of their dignity by making them support terrible nominees.
Senate Republicans may be in the majority, but Trump controls them. That is the story.

Hegseth's background check didn't include his ex-wives or the woman who accused him of sexual assault in a police report. As it turns out, that's not an oversight—that's because the incoming Trump administration is muzzling the FBI in advance: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-fbi-ba...
