The “big, beautiful” bill ain’t beautiful—it’s bullshit.

House Republicans just voted for the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. history—turning their backs on their own damn constituents: the working people they were sent here to represent.

They don’t serve the people. They serve the rich.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The IRS is expected to fire upwards of 6,000 employees as early as today.

This will mean fewer audits for rich tax dodgers.

According to U.S. Treasury estimates, the top 1% underpay their taxes by $163 billion every year.

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.

Greg Abbott and his billionaire mega-donors know private school vouchers are unpopular in Texas.

So they’ve paid for a poll-tested rebrand to sell their scam.

So even if you follow the process to enter here legally, you can have that taken away?

This is a small sigh of relief from the chaos and damage caused by Trump’s dangerous actions.

But we already know that essential services are being disrupted by the confusion and lawlessness of Trump’s power grab, so keep calling your Members of Congress.

No compromise with dictatorship. Period.

President Trump overturned President Biden’s executive order on private prisons. This move will allow the federal Bureau of Prisons to expand use of for-profit prisons, known to prioritize profits over people.

Mass incarceration should not be a business venture.

#MT01 Rep. Ryan Zinke heartlessly dismissed concerns of the parents of U.S. citizens that could be deported, leaving children without their main guardian.

"Well, there's a foster care."

This will have horrible long term impacts on these children and the economy.
