So did DoGE finally identify one of the criminals responsible for defrauding Medicare? Looks like DeSantis took a page from Senator Rick Scott’s playback. Something about Florida GOP politicans and Medicare fraud. Is Marco Rubio next?

The value of the dollar is declining. Even ignoring the “import tax” aka tariffs this makes the cost of importing more expenses and our exports less valuable. Well played MAGA! 🤬

We need EVERY DEMOCRAT in Congress to vote against the continuing resolution. What MAGA has put forward is anything but a CR! It is 99 pages longs and zeroes out a lot of agency budgets that DoGE wants to get rid of! Make the GOP own this even if it means a shut down. Show strength for once!

Make no mistake about this, their target is NOT 80,000 people…their target is to end the VA. Reducing staff by 80,000 will make the VA so dysfunctional the GOP will move to end it and hand out vouchers to Veterans. Their plan to end Veterans getting the private care they deserve. FAFO!

GOP won a majority in the House of Rep in 2022. However, the CR they want to pass next week, is a continuation of the 2022 Budget passed by PELOSI. They are incapable of passing their own budget despite a claim of a mandate. Why can’t they do their damn jobs???
