Rampant corruption by Trump, his family, and his Republican enablers in Congress are happening in plain sight. While they are making bank, millions of Americans are losing their healthcare and facing bankruptcy trying to make ends meet. In November we fight back. #TrumpsCorruptionCostsUS

Trump, his family, and his Republican congressional enablers have built an economy for millionaires and billionaires only. Meanwhile, millions of Americans face bankruptcy and have lost or losing healthcare. Sounds like Republican Death Panels to me, what do you think? #RepublicansMedicareCuts

Trump says we can’t afford to fund healthcare because we’re fighting wars (of choice). Thanks for saying the quiet part out loud. America has the money. It’s all about Republican’s warped priorities. Nearly 8 million Americans have already lost coverage since 2025. #HealthcareNotWarfare
