🚨ALERT House Republicans put a poison pill in their billionaire bailout bill that could trigger HALF A TRILLION DOLLARS in CUTS to MEDICARE -- not Medicaid, but MEDICARE Trump lied to us. He said no cuts to Medicare or Medicaid www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Trump and GOP’s tax bill would force cuts to Medicare, CBO says
Some $500 billion in cuts to Medicare could be avoided if Congress instructs the White House budget office to disregard the reconciliation package’s debt impact.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) helps more than 42 million Americans put food on the table every month. But the Big Beautiful Bill for Billionaires would literally take food out of the mouths of hungry people to pay for a billionaire tax cut. open.spotify.com/episode/1hVU...

Casar: What we discovered last night, which is really breaking news, is that they’re not just robbing Medicaid—it turns out they’re also planning to rob Medicare of nearly half a billion dollars if they pass this bill.

Wait. Why are we not describing the tariffs as tax? Didn't a King once impose a tax on American consumers. The Stamp Act was imposed on citizens without recourse or representation. Congress has chosen to ignore this egregious, unfair, and unconstitutional tax levied by a want-to-be king.

On July 4, 1776, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence. Here's how the story began - with taxes, tea, and tariffs.

While I appreciate the "lock him up" and "impeach him" sentiments (and I'm with you), if Mueller, Garland, and impeachment taught us anything, its that 1) SCOTUS is corrupt and 2) We have to do this ourselves. As I've been saying for nearly 8 years: it's up to us. Always has been.

If anyone you know in ICE tells you they’re “just following orders” remind them of the following: - they can read - they’re aware of the SCOTUS ruling and numerous injunctions around the illegality of what they’re doing - feigning ignorance will not soften their place in history…or in America.
