Trump says β€œLet ME eat” cake on my new plane as I gut Medicare, Medicaid and Food Stamps The House bill perfectly sums up the GOP

Trump is not the β€œLet them eat cake” President. He's the β€œLet ME eat cake on my new luxury jet that will cost US taxpayers more than $1 billion dollars while I slash Medicaid, Medicare and food stamps!” My article on Trump budget deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-says...

This isn't hypothetical.

The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

The Supreme Court is about to let religion ruin public education Two recent cases suggest that the era of secular schools is coming to an end.

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

No single person should have the power to do what Trump is doing right now unilaterally dictating world trade & fucking with the world economy. No person should have that power. Certainly not in this country. Shame on you Congressional Republicans for giving it to him. Shame on you.

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.
