The wisdom of Pete Buttigieg & similar

Here and READY FOR @petebuttigieg.bsky.social !!!!!!

Rural Virginians need to wake up and realize their local hospital will close. And cuts to Medicaid mean that transportation to the now much further away hospitals simply will not happen - rural folks will die. Hope you have your personal helicopter full of fuel and ready to go.

Virginia Dems point out thst Wittman and Kiggans lied when they pledged not to cut Medicaid

They lied, of course. That's what they do! bluevirginia.us/2025/05/at-d...

Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

Republicans just passed a budget that guts Medicaid, SNAP, veterans’ benefits, and free school lunches.

They swore they'd fix the economy—but this sure as hell ain’t it.

This account is using block lists to trick people into blocking progressive accounts. Their “Far right accounts” block list is filled with pro-Harris pro-Dem accounts.

I’d recommend blocking them and unsubscribing. (And avoiding block lists all together).

In Virginia, Medicaid is handled via 5 HMOs. Those plans are: Aetna Better Health of Virginia, Anthem HealthKeepers Plus, Molina Healthcare, Sentara Community Plan, & UnitedHealthcare Community Plan. If you or a loved 1 have these call your Rep. NOW & say U will be effected by these cuts!

In Virginia, all Medicaid is handled through HMOs. Those plans are: Aetna Better Health of Virginia, Anthem HealthKeepers Plus, Molina Healthcare, Sentara Community Plan, and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan. This isn’t on the website provided above.

#handsoff protest today in Harrisonburg today! Proud and loud!!

This made me smile. 😁 #TeamPete

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Right!? Does she only serve with her left hand? So performative and dangerous at the same time.

Hey NBC and Seth Meyers, y’all need to book the largest possible venue in D.C. on April 26th and do a competing fundraiser and comedy show that actually celebrates the First Amendment. Televise it. Make Amber Ruffin the central act. Send a message that free speech is non-negotiable.

To paraphrase @petebuttigieg.bsky.social - they come for the health tips and comedy and leave with alt-right ideology.

Just a Wednesday night thought. #transrights

Trump right now is huddled with Howard Nutlick trying to figure out a way to sell spots in the next DOD group text.

Who DID they think they were adding to the group chat?

I'll be on CNN at 9pm ET with Kaitlan Collins to discuss today's news of the astonishing security failure at the White House.

I'm looking forward to catching up LIVE with Stephen Colbert tonight. Feels like there will be plenty to discuss!

Tune in to the Late Show at 11:35 pm ET.

Pete Buttigieg said this in September:

"It's especially concerning that in JD Vance you really could not have found a running mate more visibly aligned with the anti-Ukraine side of the party."

Pete Buttigieg will be LIVE on the Late Show Tuesday night after the State of the Union. #TeamPete

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity.

You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.
