This is what House Republicans voted for tonight.
Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Why? Economic stress can have a major impact upon your body, your mind & how long you live.
Iβd love to hear from you: How has stress affected your heath?

Without the CFPB, giant financial institutions β like banks, mortgage lenders, credit card companies, and debt collection companies β will have an easier time picking your pocket.
Itβs clear who Trump and Musk serve β and itβs not you.
Let's say there's "waste" and "fraud" in the government.
Well thatβs why every department had an inspector general to find and stop it.
But guess what? Trump fired most of these independent auditors who should be insulated from politics.
None of this is about waste and fraud.
Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
Republicans want to slash Medicaid β a death sentence for thousands of Americans.Β Medicaid provides health care to more than 37 million kids, funding for 2/3 of seniors in nursing homes & is 40% of the revenue for community health centers.Β
We must EXPAND Medicaid, not cut it.
NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately. The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Now, union-busting corporations can exploit their employees with impunity.
Last I checked, that's not standing with workers the way Trump promised.
Happy Black History Month, Colorado! Let us come together to celebrate our diversity, reflect on the past, and continue the fight for justice for all.

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.
They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.
The tariffs Trump is unleashing tomorrow on Mexico, Canada, and China β our biggest trading partners β are estimated to cost households an extra $1,250 annually.
DCA staffing on Wednesday was reportedly not normal β with one air traffic controller handling the job of two people.
These shortages will only be worsened by federal budget cuts and Trump's hiring freeze.
We should be investing in public workers, not attacking them.
This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.
they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

It is a dangerous move towards authoritarianism.
Last week, Trump's FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson shut down requests for public comment on corporate surveillance pricing and other exploitative tactics.
So much for all that economic populism, huh?
Trump's priorities are out of line. They align with his ego, not the American people. Silence is compliance.
