I'm a blue dot in a very red state, a mom of one human and one fur baby, and also the author of Wounded Souls. I'm looking for a soft landing where the skies are blue.

Someone should go there and show them the clips of Trump's Great Gatsby party. I bet they'd be so happy to know he's having fun.

Happening now in Broadviewβ€”outside Chicago:

A procession of Illinois Handmaid’s, with the Illinois Democratic Women of Cook County, walks in procession to the ICE detention facility.

β€œEven though we are silent, we are powerful,” an organizer told the group before starting.

What happens to Medicare in this plan? Does he think seniors can go out and purchase insurance for a few thousand dollars?

TBF, health insurance companies are the reason our healthcare sucks so badly in this country so I'm all for taking away their money. But c'mon...he's clearly lost his marbles. His staff needs to take away his real phone and get him into dementia care.

I was paying BCBS $1,600 a month plus copays because of my age & preconditions (osteoporosis)
Does anyone believe insurance companies will now approve policies for the elderly or anyone with preconditions?

Angus: Well, Donald, the whole world watched you and your grotesque Great Gatsby gathering with all these barely clad young women and creepy old men atβ€”what is itβ€”the Mar-a-Lago Roach Motel where you liveβ€”and thought, this man doesn’t care about his own people.

The gop are being paid with tax payer dollars, as they do nothing but middle school mean girl their way around social media instead of proposing an actual clean CR.

Americans stand in bread lines at food pantries while the gop are the definition of lazy welfare queens.

Surprise Appearance
My Dahlia was all done blooming and I have been waiting for the first frost to store the bulbs. I just came back from a walk and saw this new baby #Dahlia that bloomed. I do not have any this color so not sure what happened but what a nice surprise! #BloomScrolling #Photography

I’m so fed up with this propaganda that’s been shoved down our throats for the past 50 years, about how it’s not government’s job to help people.

fuck you completely. helping its people is literally what a government is for.

FDR’s New Fucking Deal (yes, that’s what it was called in the first draft) provided a well-funded social safety net that lifted millions of Americans out of poverty and created the strongest middle class we’ve ever seen.

look, it’s nice that some churches are willing to step into the breach and feed their communities as best they can β€” but they can’t do it alone. they don’t have the resources of a federal government. I can’t believe I have to explain this to the Lieutenant Governor of an entire state. fuck you fuck you fuck you.

I'm confused. How does sending money to the people so that the people can send it to insurance companies help anybody? And the much better, much cheaper insurance is called Medicare.

So there isn’t enough money for SNAP benefits to help feed people and there isn’t enough money to make healthcare more affordable, but there is money for the orange felon’s $250M ballroom, $230M to pay himself with and $40B to give to Argentina’s dictator. I hate fascists.

Murdering humans in the Caribbean Sea. Risking starvation of tens of millions of Americans. Urging abusive federal agents to use deadly force.

Can Americans agree to never again elect a man who could not care less about human life, except for his own?

This isn’t a β€œpause in services.”
It’s chemo delayed.
It’s insulin rationed.
It’s cancer caught later instead of sooner.
It’s veterans waiting months for appointments they already earned.
This is harm by design.

We need to normalize thinking about large-scale prosecutions of this admin as inevitable.

Cabinet members on down to ICE stormtroopers are going to face justice for their rampage of criminality.

And the public needs to know details of what happened. The murders, the bribes and embezzlement.

The GOP gave tax cuts of $2.3 trillion to the rich, but believe food & healthcare is something the country can't afford.

A political party who forces people to go w/o food & healthcare, so the wealthy don't have to pay taxes, is morally bankrupt.

The 6 far-right extremist terrorists on the Supreme Court have now begun hearing arguments from criminal career bigot Kim Davis about ending same-sex marriage. She’s the scumbag known for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

It’s always been about hate.

There is no reason to fund this government as it starves millions of Americans, invades U.S. cities, disappears people, strangles universities, acts as a pay-for-pay operation for the president, guts environmental rules, commits war crimes, kills foreign aid, and dismantles public health.

Nothing says MAGA quite like actively robbing people of funds needed to feed their families whilst trying to make everyone as sick as possible in order to force people to get health coverage they can’t afford because republicans refuse to do anything to help. Pure fucking evil.

ICE are scum. The bottom feeders of society. Preying on innocent children. Traumatizing children. There is nothing lower than people who hurt innocent children. When do we start locking them up? What are we waiting for? #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else.

Republicans said no.

So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS.
Republicans OWN this shutdown.
