A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year.
The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive.

If you havenโ€™t seen this, you need to!

Trump is short-selling Americaโ€”deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them.

Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm.
Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

Grok calculates that Elon's DOGE CUTS will
KILL 3.88 Million people worldwide and 520,000 Americans.
ใƒผใƒผ
DOGE claims they have cut $130 billion, this is less than the $170 billion in unpaid taxes that millionaires/billionaires evade EACH YEAR. Biden reinstated the Non-Filer Program to collect these evaded taxes but Trump immediately shut it down. There have been 25K millionaire/billionaire non-filers since 2017. The rich could save 4M lives if they just paid their taxes.

No, Elon. 40% of people who call Social Security's 1-800 number are not fraudsters, Social Security is not a Ponzi scheme & nobody who is 150 years old is getting a Social Security check.

Stop the lies. Stop the disinformation.

Get your billionaire hands off Social Security.

Beto has the fire.
This is the fight Democrats want to see in their leaders-itโ€™s what we NEED in this moment.

Not the sleepy haze of Chuck Schumer, whoโ€™s still waiting for the conflict to present itself.

Democracy is on the line. LFG!!!

Hermann Hesse is right.
The felon admin is killing. Theyโ€™re turning away truckloads of food from food banks. Theyโ€™re deporting legal green card and visa holders. The felon ended funding for pediatric cancer research & halted free school lunches. Trump is a murderer.
