THIS IS NOT A DRILL: call your electeds NOW and tell them VOTE NO on the "big beautiful bill"--YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!
Don't believe me--just read on. Check out these videos or, if you can't watch, just read the summaries I've put together for you here. This is no exaggeration and no joke--call your elected U.S. congresspeople and senators NOW and tell them VOTE NO on trump's budget bill because your life, and your loved ones' lives, depend on it. We still have time to stop it, so LET'S GO!
"Let's talk about how bad Trump's bill is...."
tillis, musk, and murkowski are NO friends to the working classes, but even they know how gawd-awful trump's "big beautiful bill" is. tillis knows that this corrupt AF bill will harm and kill North Carolinians. musk has financial interest in the bill--after musk and trump's lover's spat, electric vehicle provisions that would have benefited musk were cut. musk is right that that the bill disadvantages newer, cleaner industries in favor of dirty, obsolete industries, further damaging America's technological edge in favor of China. lisa murkowski pretended to buy a reprieve for Alaska so that she could pretend to justify voting for it, but that provision washed away in the Byrd Bath--sorry, Alaska, but you'll be suffering the most along with the rest of the red states if this project 2025 bill passes. republicans who insisted on pretending not to know what's in it are having it read to them in all its gory [sic], thanks to chuck schumer (who occasionally does something right). Everyone with more than one functioning neuron between their ears knows that this bill will disrupt, damage, and destroy the lives of hundreds of millions of us here in America. No one--not even the billionaires who expect to benefit the most from this nightmare of a bill will go unscathed by it. Never, ever forget: THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT maga VOTED FOR.
"Disabled + Elderly Americans Zip-Tied, Arrested for Protesting GOP's Plan to Gut Medicaid"
The billionaires see us as "useless eaters." Fascist regimes are always eugenicist--as trump, musk, and rfk, jr., show by their actions every single day. This is why they fully intend to murder us all--including if not especially elderly, disabled, pregnant people, and children. This is EXACTLY what maga voted for; whether it harms and kills them and their friends and families directly matters not because they'd gladly vote for their own demise again, every single time. I'm not exaggerating here.
"Let's talk about Trump's Medicaid cuts and cutting through the rhetoric...."
trump convinced about a third of the country to sign away their and their families' health care out of hatred and fear of a tiny percentage of the U.S. population--like the 12,000 transgender Americans who receive gender-affirming surgery every year and which is not covered by Medicaid in some states. trump convinced maga to hand over their earned benefits to parasitic billionaires who neither need nor earned them. trump literally told maga to vote for him and then drop dead, and maga groveled up to him and said, with tears in their eyes, "Sir! YES, SIR!"
"Elon goes SCORCHED EARTH, tries to KILL TRUMP’S TERM"
As we just said, musk isn't wrong in a single criticism of trump, the administration, or the big horrible bill. musk is in a position to do real damage to trump, and I'm here for it. A good reason to watch this video is the segment in which Bernie Sanders explains clearly and succinctly to joe rogan just how nightmarish and corrupt the big horrible bill is.
"Fact-checking 2 viral rumors about ICE: DoorDash and Tow Trucks"
Hope Core and Horror Core both lead to a lot of viral-but-false information. Although gig job employers, who frequently employ immigrants, may not verifiably be cooperating with ice, they are clearly doing NOTHING to protect their workers, especially immigrants--they protected their workers in trump's first term and have abandoned them this time. There ARE enough positive TRUE stories to share! Please fact check before sharing, friends. One thing we know is true is that icestapo is running around masked, kidnapping and terrorizing communities WITHOUT SHOWING ID OR WARRANTS. Angela warns not to tow or otherwise do anything to ice vehicles that might constitute a federal crime.
"Right Wingers FREAK OUT Over Mamdani NYC Win"
Hate costs maga everything they claim to hold dear, but they're so blinded by their hate that they can't even see what they're giving up for the sake of their hate, fear, shame, and rage. It's stupid: maga is terrified of a naturalized citizen who only wants to make everyone's lives better, but they're only too happy to put a felonious, treasonous, criminal, sadistic rapist hell-bent on burning America down to the ground--and them with it--in charge of the country. We ALL deserve better than trump--even maga deserves better than trump. I hope to high heaven they figure that out before they destroy us all.
"Republican Plot UNRAVELS As Widespread Hospital Collapse Unveiled In Medicaid Cuts"
Rural public hospitals will close if republicans cut Medicaid, just as we've been saying here. As John says, the knock-on effects would be disastrous.
"Trump Supporter RIPPED AWAY From Pregnant Wife In Unexpected ICE Consequences"
icestapo lies; fascist corporate media unquestioningly spreads the lies. Apparently, being a trump-supporting Iranian Christian with a visa--who even supported trump's illegal attack on Iran--in America is a crime...?
"SHOCK: RFK proposes the SAME 'MICROCHIPPING' they warned us about"
Every republican accusation is a confession--if not what they're doing then what they're horny to do.
"Trump Drops DEADLY Decision As Alarming Satellite Termination Sparks Massive Panic"
TL;DR: bloated orange florida man dooms florida residents to death by hurricane by terminating weather satellite programs that predict storms and help inform people at risk when to evacuate. Um, have the day you voted for, I guess?
"Let's talk about the US being left out of a world trade club...."
This is a stark reminder to madame president* trump that she's not ruler of the world, and it's a stark reminder to the rest of us that trump has ceded our leadership in the world. As I've said before, trump and republicans' actions are indistinguishable from those of enemy agents hell-bent on destroying us.
"Elon Musk PLUMMETS In Public Disaster As Staggering Starlink Scheme Unravels"
leon skum's tesla stock never was tied to reality, so it's always done better than it should. and, as usual, republicans seek quid pro quo with musk by forcing starlink into disadvantaged areas. This would be terrible because it would let musk arbitrarily turn off Internet access to these communities just because he's on some weird ketamine high. maybe that's part of why musk is still so profoundly unpopular even "out" of politics.
"Trump And Vance Could Face Immediate Arrest After Criminal Charges"
Some immigrant communities are fighting back, and I'm here for it!
"Let's talk about Trump's high interest rates...."
The Fed sets interest rates for two reasons: to keep the economy growing and stable and to help decrease unemployment. trump's policies create such uncertainty and inflation that the Fed has no choice but to raise interest rates to counter all of trump's instability.
"Lets talk about US nukes in the UK...."
Our NATO partners are arming themselves AGAINST US. I mean, who knew that putting an unstable, erratic, stupid, ignorant, weak, cowardly, treasonous, felonious, serial rapist, sociopathic narcissist in charge of the United States could, oh, I dunno, destroy our reputation as a reliable, steady, reasonable partner in trading and defense across the entire world?
"Let's talk about Trump’s win, NATO, and Monkey Paws...."
Again, NATO is arming AGAINST US. And trump's "big deal" getting them to spend 5% of their GDP on "defense" is not limited to bombs and planes--it includes things like protecting against climate change, promoting food security for those in need, and many other humanitarian causes that trump and republicans loathe with a seething passion. Nice way to flip trump the bird, NATO!
"Republicans get DEVASTATING News. They're scrambling. Let's enjoy it."
republicans are freaking out because their murderous policies are being exposed to the American people, who strongly disapprove of them. Time to get out the popcorn and watch the murderous republican thugs scramble for their jobs, money, and power--as Angela says, if you think republicans in congress do NOT expect any more elections, "you haven't been paying attention" to how they're behaving (so quit being defeatist, m'kay?). Hopefully, Americans will finally learn and remember that republicans do nothing more reliably than screw them over, and hopefully Americans will vote more intelligently in coming elections.
"Trump PANICS As Idaho Firefighter SHOOTER’S Past Is REVEALED"
TL;DR: looks like yet another violent white male maga shooter. Yet again, it's trump supporters who have trump derangement syndrome and whose preferred solution to every problem is violence because trump encourages them to be their worst selves.
"23 Things to Love About Being Autistic"
One common theme: life is already so intense for autistic people that they have no need of drugs or alcohol--they get high on life with no external chemicals needed. No heroin, brain worms, road kill steaks, raw sewage skinny dips, or conspiracy theories needed. Suck on THAT, rfk, jr.!
"Why you definitely SHOULD NOT share this JD Vance meme"
MSNBC rarely posts deliberate comedy vice news, but this is absolute gold!! XD
trump's goons ZIP TIED ELDERLY AND DISABLED PEOPLE for protesting against losing Medicaid and Medicare...one lady in her wheelchair confronted the brownshirt thugs in their bulletproof vests and full military gear, saying, "I weigh 70 pounds, and I'M a threat to YOU?"
