But consider this...
Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion β just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.
Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?
Kavanaugh recently suggested immigration stops are no big deal if you're a legal resident bc ICE just promptly releases you
That is not, in fact, what ICE does
He invents a fiction bc the reality of the policies he supports is too disturbing for him to imagine

I am so overwhelmed with my world just ending but you are all so kind and so supportive of Kaleb and I feel so inadequate to honor him with his peers. Just pass along any way that you can that you all made my suffering feel more bearable. Thank you so much and God Bless you all.

Unarmed people of conscience, abducted in international waters. This is piracy. This is kidnapping. Β The flotilla did not break any laws. What is unlawufl is genocide, the deadly blockade of Gaza, the use of starvation as a weapon of war, and the piracy of civilians vessels and abduction of all those on board.

Federal Judge William G. Young ruled today in our lawsuit against the Trump administration that the policy of arresting, detaining, & deporting noncitizen students & faculty members for their pro-Palestinian advocacy violates the 1st Amendment.

29.09.2025 22:59 β π 5 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I also have advice. Everybody loves reading advice on the computer, so I'll share it: the best thing you can do right now is log off as hard as you can. Go outside, talk to people in real life where it's actually kind of rude to talk about the news, try to actually see the friends you usually just text message. Go for a long drive and turn the phone off while you do it. Get back into your hobbies or pick one and learn it for a while. Watch one of those studio movies that reviews called "wildly miscalculated" and you haven't seen since high school. Play an album you like but find embarrassing. Go to free community events even if they sound stupid. If you take the freeway, try the surface streets. Go to a bad diner and just order some bad coffee because even bad coffee is good coffee. You can't help anybody when you're exhausted and keep posting one million college-educated rewordings of "I would love to be dead right now" on the computer. Walk away from the thing and try out some of those normal things you hear about and if you get bored that's wonderful because we're not supposed to get bored anymore. It turns out boredom is the Cadillac of feelings.

FDR won 42 states in 1932, it wasn't by pandering to Hoover voters. Then Republicans called him a socialist for 4 years. Then he ran for reelection and won 46 states
