If we’re removing tax-exempt status from any non-profit institution that teaches anything “political,” what do you think will happen to churches that preach about the “right to life”? Oh, you don’t like it when your BS logic is applied back at you?

All of a sudden, the tariffs were *never* about “bringing back manufacturing” and it was always to stick it to China, huh? MAGA should become pro gymnasts—the way they twist themselves into pretzels every day to match their talking points to the bullshit excreting from Dumptruck’s mouth.

🚨Please call your house representative today and tell them no to slashing $800+ billion from Medicaid. This call to action is ESPECIALLY important for people who live in Republican districts. Please share far & wide and encourage everyone you know to call. 202-224-3121. Cuts to Medicaid are deadly.

‼️ RED ALERT!!!: REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO PASS A BILL THAT CUTS MEDICARE AND MEDICAID TO FUND STIMULUS CHECKS FOR THE RICH. THEY ARE VOTING NEXT WEEK! CALL YOUR REPS!! ESPECIALLY REPUBLICANS! DO NOT STOP. TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW.

text from 5calls.org. Highlight includes "the budget proposal mandates that congress partially offset the cost of these tax cuts by cutting $2 trillion of mandatory federal spending, a budget category that includes Medicaid, Medicare, and SNAP.

According-Activity87 posted 7h ago:

“I completely disagree, it's clear that he's taking a proactive approach to addressing the country's energy and economic challenges. His ability to think outside the box and push for change is undoubtedly an asset in his pursuit of making America more competitive globally. Trump's capability to wheel and deal definitely exceeds that of the average Redditor and I am sure he's considering multiple angles on this while consulting with experts on the matter. This was part of the platform he ran on and what the American people voted for, have a little faith.”

“We don't have to pretend that Trump is some 4D chess player. These tariffs make no economic sense right now when people want a better economy and lower inflation.
He'd be a better negotiator if he used the threat of tariffs (see Columbia) to get a better deal. But then again no one even seems to know what he wants from

“Sure, but the economic orthodoxy here is that when supply is constrained, prices go up. (If it were cheaper to buy these things in the US, supermarkets would already be doing so.)
Three months ago, before the election, the electorate was frustrated at high consumer prices during Biden's term. People felt - and I agree that food had become far too expensive. These measures will make food more expensive, not less.”

They’re coping now. Checked out the conservative sub-reddit, which is criticizing him too now. But the die-hard MAGA are still coping with “you just gotta trust him, bro. He’ll take care of us. He knows what he’s doing and he probably knows stuff we don’t so just have faith.” LMFAO.

This is effectively the Trump administration’s attempt to repeal all the laws from the last 100 years that benefit the middle class. They knew they couldn’t actually repeal them, so they tried to find a slimy loophole to skirt the Constitution: replace everyone at OMB with law-breaking loyalists.

Below is a link to the spreadsheet of all programs they are freezing. It is massive. Notice: most on the list help the middle class. It’s clear what they’re trying to do: gut all the programs that help us to make way for stimulus checks for the rich. Shameful. www.politico.com/f/?id=000001...

We need to stop calling them “tax cuts” for the rich. Call them what they actually are: a stimulus check for rich people.

School lunch programs and food stamps for needy families are likely going to be affected by this freeze. Kids will go hungry because of this. It’s nauseating and it reminds me of that evil thing Elmo said about how there’s going to be a period of suffering. Here it is.

The Trump administration is destroying the federal government as we speak. Federal employees are panicking. All job offers have been rescinded. The fed workers subreddit in chaos. And all of this? To pay for a stimulus for the richest of the rich. A direct transfer of wealth from us to them. Filth.

Been so upset about the fires and the disinformation spreading about them that I’ve been responding to MAGAfucks, even though I know I shouldn’t. I foolishly thought that even ~they~ might have some shred of decency when talking to someone who’s living through them… but they don’t. Don’t bother.

Met a man at my hotel who lost his home last night in the Palisades fire. He said he wished he’d taken the evacuation orders more seriously because he was not prepared to leave for the last time and lost so much. Even so, he still had words to spare for the ill and elderly who lost even more.

Zoe @myzoe.bsky.social · 08/01/2025

Spend all of last night in a 12-hour long extended panic from my hotel room. Woke up to see the fire has grown so, so much larger— with smaller fires breaking out everywhere across the county. The fear we’re all feeling is palpable. Please let the winds calm. #palisadesfire

Dumpster Fire saying he’ll end the Ukraine-Russia war in 24hrs is hilarious. He hasn’t even started his term, and he’s already getting played by Putin. Putin is like “~maybe~ I’ll meet with him.” Dump gave himself an arbitrary deadline that only hurts HIS ability to negotiate. What a moron.

It’s not about Democrat or Republican. It’s not about left or right. It’s about all of us in the working class versus a small group of billionaires that steal from us, try to control us, and want to destroy us. It’s about all of us versus them. And there’s a lot more of us.

There is no such thing as “objective” or “unbiased” media. Choosing to (or not to) cover a story IS a form of bias. Presenting both sides as “equally valid” IS a form of bias. Corporate media calling themselves “unbiased” means they’re actually just biased in favor of the corporate establishment.

Corporations only goal is to maximize profits for shareholders. Most take this to mean “we have to do the shadiest crap possible” to maximize profits—even if it hurts customers, employees, the economy, and even their own long-term success. They won’t stop until something prevents them from doing it.

Republicans proposing an amendment to raise the age of social security to 70 should tell you how they really feel about the working class.

Costco is an example of a corporation that’s a shining spot in a world of trash.

Trump wants to raise the debt ceiling so he can spend 4.6 trillion dollars of our money on tax cuts for the rich. Meanwhile, average working people can’t afford basic healthcare. In case MAGA wasn’t sure who’s side he’s on: it’s definitely not yours.

Republicans justify our corrupt for-profit healthcare system with “we have the most innovative treatments.” You know what’s better? Preventing the disease in the first place. People can’t even afford basic preventative medicine NOW. And you want them to pay millions for “innovative treatments”?

Classic Republican talking point: “Our healthcare is the best in the world!! We have innovative procedures and advanced healthcare.” What good is a 5-star restaurant if you can’t even afford potatoes and butter?
