As a Canadian, my empathy for America in the face of the aggression of the Republican administration comes from clearly recognize that America hasn't met the #belonging needs for a significant proportion of its populace. Recognizing this is distinct from still setting boundaries on the aggression.

Trump said in an interview with Elon Musk that he wouldn't touch Medicaid. Hours later he endorsed a GOP plan that could slash the program. Donald Trump said he would "love and cherish" Medicaid. He's endorsed a House GOP proposal that would likely gut the program.

Last night, Trump promised he wouldn't touch Medicaid.

This morning, Trump endorsed the House Republican plan to slash Medicaid.

It's smoke and mirrors: Trump and Republicans are plotting to take away health care from millions of people to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

If Elon Musk truly cares about being "maximally transparent," he should release the forms showing his financial interests.

Americans deserve to know how Elon Musk will profit from his role in the Trump Administration.

Christian theocrats and the techno-feudalists actually haven’t values in common beyond β€œthe enemy of my enemy is my friend”. freedom lovers should look for any and every opportunity to point that out to them. theocrats are β€œinteriorists” and the techno-billionaires are β€œexteriorists”.

Trump is not a β€œstrongman”; he’s a weakling.

Musk isn’t the β€œrichest man in the world”; he’s the most morally bankrupt one.

Trump is not a libertarian; he just established a new tax on his people.

Neither Trump nor Musk are patriots; their crypto schemes undermine the USD.

Donald Trump is the most unpopular president at the start of his term in modern American political history.

Don't let anyone talk to you about a mandate.

Don't let anyone talk to you about there being support for his agenda.

Don't let anyone tell you that anything about this presidency is normal.
