So… the very same Republicans who said they were cutting SNAP because hunger could be “addressed by food banks”, just cut $500 MILLION in funding for…

You guessed it.

Food banks.

On projected revenue:

To put $500 billion in context, the US spent ~$825 billion on the Defense Department in fiscal 2024.

The current tax gap is $700 billion. Think about almost doubling the tax gap in a single year.

The revolution will take place on pen and paper and will be easy to burn or destroy to protect everyone involved. If it is online, it is archived and traced. Don’t write anything that you don’t want read aloud in court.

He doesn't expect them to stop, he supports them.

I think Americans have to understand things won't go back to normal and no one is coming to save us. The self destructive decision to vote for Trump is going to cause long term pain, damage and weakness. We have to survive and try to rebuild something better. Generational effort sadly.

💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.

Deere shareholders: DEI is in. Bigots are out

Trump just laughing it up with his reprehensible Commerce Secretary about selling US citizenship to Russian oligarchs for $5 million. Disgusting. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Not sure if people remember that the USSR couldn't afford to keep pace with the west when the iron curtain fell. This right here is how what is left of the US will fall with the billionaires absconding with ALL the money.

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

Tim Burchett votes yes. massive cuts to health care for poor folks — all to set up massive tax cuts for the rich.

They never cared about the debt.

Murphy: "The destruction of our democracy is part of this story ... this is super unpopular, what they are doing. Nobody wants their healthcare to disappear ... so how do you get away with it? You try to destroy our democracy. You try to crush dissent. You threaten members of Congress with arrest."

Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue:

1. Don't make public lists of people who are engaging in acts of resistance
2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion
3. Don't live post resistance meetings

This is going to lead to people dying.

Hello

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?

I’m not sure the rest of the country fully grasps the panic and anger building in DC, MD, and VA.

The entire economy of this area is about to collapse. Paychecks are stopping. Careers are ruined. Taxes are about to plummet. Yet no one seems able to stop this madness.
