This is unfortunately true.

Medicare Will Require Prior Approval for Certain Procedures

This is *very* bad news for Medicare recipients. (Thank Dr. Oz.) Not only will it slow down & prevent access to treatment, but it will suck resources from providers that they need to spend elsewhere.

The 6 year pilot starts next year in AZ, NJ, OH, OK, TX, & WA.

A group of global civil society organizations have placed the US on a watchlist for urgent concern over the health of its civic society, alongside Turkey, Serbia, El Salvador, Indonesia and Kenya.

A federal judge says the USAID shutdown likely violated the Constitution The judge wrote: "Musk made the decisions to shutdown USAID's headquarters and website even though he lacked the authority to make that decision." What does that mean for the agency's future?

Reminder: The shuttering of USAID this month was never approved by Congress...but they did it anyway.

(Where did the money go?)

Even a federal judge deemed the shutdown likely unconstitutional...they did it anyway: www.npr.org/2025/03/18/n....

What will this felonious regime brazenly do next?

Be wary of paramilitaries!

If some factions can do unheard of and unprecedented things to hurt people and the earth and get away with it, maybe other factions could begin doing unheard of and unprecedented things to help people and the earth.

YouTube video by MSNBC GOP Sen. Murkowski: 'We are all afraid...retaliation is real'

Reminder: This is the same senator who "didn't like the bill" and said it was "agonizing," but voted YES anyway.

This is authoritarian creep in real time, folks.

Be wary of paramilitaries.

And know your rights.

In just one week: A GOP president deployed Marines in a U.S. city, called for a Democratic governor’s arrest, the GOP Speaker called for him to be tarred and feathered, a Democratic senator was handcuffed, and two Democratic legislators were shot in their homes.

YouTube video by Rep. Melanie Stansbury Rep. Stansbury: The Trump Admin is now targetting non-profits

Targeting non-profits is the latest in a long list of illegal activities the Trump Admin is conducting to intimidate civil society.

To every non-profit and community organization worried or scared—know your rights! 

We see it. We’re fighting it. And no one—not Elon, not Trump—is above the law.

Ah yes, the Secretary of Education would like to *learn* about one of the worst racial massacres in U.S. history. Inspiring stuff.

The GOP Tax Scam rips healthcare away from millions of everyday Americans.

Yes, that’s a disgusting abomination.

substantive due process

You are correct. It's called substantive due process (www.law.cornell.edu/wex/substant...) and that's what helps protect our fundamental rights from government interference.

One was Roe v. Wade and the focus is now on the right to contraception.

Judges/courts need to start impeaching AND arresting these people.

The current administration's pace far exceeds how democracy works and that's NOT a good thing!

Reminder: we're ONLY 129 days in.

Ooof. Here's to hoping RFK Jr. doesn't try to ban them, too.

Elon Musk bids farewell to White House but says Doge will continue Musk's exit comes after he criticised the legislative centrepiece of the president's agenda.

Rumor has it that a president's pardoning power is NOT limitless... especially in cases of impeachment.

Of course, they can "offboard" all they want, but at the end of the day...DOGE is still an illegal COUP: www.bbc.com/news/article...

And a fake temporary org that has had a REAL NEGATIVE impact.

Trump attorneys draw judge's ire by saying 'state secrets' keep them from sharing details on Abrego Garcia's return U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis said the government’s refusal to provide certain information in the case has been “an exercise in utter frustration.”

Hoping the courts learn QUICKLY.

Remember when judges depended on the executive branch to enforce court decisions?

Now, the executive branch makes up whatever they want, ignores decisions and🤞until something sticks.

It's AUTHORITARIAN.

GAO rejects DOGE attempt to land at congressional watchdog agency The Government Accountability Office told the DOGE acting administrator that it is part of the legislative branch.

Apparently, getting rejected by GAO because they are "SITUATED UNDER THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH AND WORK FOR CONGRESS, NOT THE PRESIDENT.": www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Public Sector Workers: Don't get distracted or let them off your radar. They're still trying to bulldoze.

DOGE = COUP
