The coming political payback. And we can lay the groundwork for the headline on the AM of November 4, 2026: Republicans wiped out in historic electoral tsunami.

But ultimately, the only way weโre going to reverse these policies is by defeating the GOP goons responsible and winning back power.

Republicans just voted to pass Trumpโs Tax Scam, take healthcare away from 17 million people, kick 11.8 million people off food stamps, and rip school lunches away from kids โ all so they can shovel $4.5 trillion to the ultra-rich in tax cuts.
We're going to make sure voters remember this in 2026.
Uh, there is a lot to discuss. Please join in about an hour and bring your questions. We'll talk about this bullshit bill of course, but also about what comes next. See ya soon!

Following these escalations, we urge NY leaders to call for a special session to pass New York for All, a bill that can protect our immigrant communities across NY.

And our movement is much larger than your fake one ever will be.

But our power is heard in the stomps on the streets, in the building of our communities, in our collective voice of resistance.

The bill, which now heads to Trumpโs desk for signature, could eliminate health insurance for up to 20 million Americans, cuts critical services like food assistance, and targets Planned Parenthood and other health care providers.
House Republicans just told the American people that they do not care about you.
Never forget this day.
Next November, weโre going to vote them out of office. Spread the word.
Senate Republicans told you that โweโre going to die anyways.โ
House Republicans just expedited that for millions.
They just passed a cruel and inhumane bill that will leave millions uninsured.
Vote. Them. Out.
๐จ BREAKING NEWS: President Trumpโs so-called โBig Beautiful Billโ has landed on his desk. Among its many harmful provisions, it blocks people on Medicaid from accessing preventive care at Planned Parenthood.
This care includes birth control, cancer screenings, and testing and treatment for STIs.
Utah Republicans voted to gut Medicaid and slash food aidโturning their backs on rural clinics, working families, and vulnerable Utahns. This isnโt fiscal responsibility. Itโs cruelty with a smile.

03.07.2025 18:37 โ ๐ 496 ๐ 85 ๐ฌ 34 ๐ 8BREAKING: After their longest vote in history, the Republican-led House of Representatives just passed Donald Trumpโs budget bill 218-214.
It will take away healthcare for 17 million Americans and cut food assistance for 3 million, all to give a tax break to Donald Trumpโs wealthy donors.
The Republican Rate Hike is going to become law.
Itโs time to make sure everyone who voted for it knows that weโre going to hold them accountable for every inflated electricity bill, every polluted water source, and every sold-off public land.
Donald's allies have previously talked about denaturalizing US citizens. That's about as extreme as immigration policy can get. And the thing is, I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to take away our citizenships. Naturalized citizens like me are also under threat. youtube.com/live/DQTgFMV...
