@ArmyAFMom @ToriatheistTori I worked for a health insurance company. They constantly looked for, and found, reasons to deny health care. Our system already has people deciding what doctor we can see, what treatments we're allowed to get, etc. What we need is a fairer system that cares about people.

@ToriatheistTori Maybe because we don't want government beaurocrats deciding what doctor we can see, what treatments we're allowed to get, when we can get said treatments, or when we're no longer worth their "investment".

@CDennis87357 @ToriatheistTori The wealthy should be taxed appropriately. They often pay less proportionally than the poor in the system we have. If the wealthy had to pay correctly, we could afford a good healthcare system.

good for you... however someone who is already taxed more than they ever thought they would be and is now looking at losing their home or farm because they cannot afford the real property or inheritance taxes on it should not have to watch so much of their money going to cover the healthcare of others.

@pinkwillow83 @LastTrueRoman @RpsAgainstTrump This isn’t a ballroom. It was a beautiful garden and grassy area. The ballroom will be elsewhere and probably make things look even worse than this concrete monstrosity.

@LastTrueRoman @RpsAgainstTrump What an amazing ballroom to the White House one everyone can use

My God. This is the White House Rose Garden after Trump’s “overhaul.” Stripped, paved, lifeless. Everything Trump touches dies

@S_DOT326 @LastTrueRoman @RpsAgainstTrump I was about to say basically the same thing. He didn’t even have to pave that much of the grass. He just wants to destroy everything good others did.

@manthonyk76 During a funeral, no less!!!

Yep… in a church.

This will not end well.

Very true Republicans/MAGAS only know how to get played because they can't tell the difference between a lie and the truth, they only follow can NEVER lead. They walk and talk with NO spine, they bow when TACO lies.

URGENT BREAKING: Fired Epstein and Maxwell Prosecutor, Maurene Comey, just issued this following statement: "Yesterday was unexpectedly my last day in the Office. I was summarily fired via memo from Main Justice that did not give a reason for my termination. Every person lucky enough to work in this office constantly hears four words to describe our ethos: Without Fear or Favor. Do the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons without fear of retribution and without favor to the powerful. For the majority of my nearly ten years in SDNY, the hard part seemed to be acting “without favor.” That is, making sure people with access, money, and power were not treated differently than anyone else; and making sure this office remained separate from politics and focused only on the facts and the law. Fear was never really conceivable. We don’t fear bad press; we have the luxury of exceptional security keeping us physically safe; and, so long as we did our work with integrity, we would get to keep serving the public in this office. But we have entered a new phase where “without fear” may be the challenge. If a career prosecutor can be fired without reason, fear may seep into the decisions of those who remain. Do not let that happen. Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought. Instead of fear, let this moment fuel the fire that already burns at the heart of this place. A fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power. Of commitment to seek justice for victims. Of dedication to truth above all else. It has been an honor to fight for those principles by your side. Maurene"

History will see that he manufactured chaos because he had nothing good to offer. No vision. No ideas. Just tearing down what others have built, and blaming them for his shortcomings. Generations will be taught he was nothing but a pathetic failure. Propped up by his enablers

@RonFilipkowski OMG How insane!

I guess they thought we weren’t enough of a laughingstock to the rest of the world already.

@OccupyDemocrats I was shocked it passed the Senate. I hope we won’t see a repeat in the House, but I don’t have much hope.

BREAKING: Democratic Congressman Maxwell Frost drops a bombshell on Donald Trump and reveals that "about 20 Republicans" oppose the disastrous "big, beautiful bill" that MAGA is desperate to pass by Friday. This could spell disaster for the White House... "They can only lose three or four [votes], and it’s done," Frost told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. He explained that both so-called moderates conservatives as well as far-right Republicans have serious issues with the bill. The legislation simultaneously guts Medicaid and skyrockets the debt — meaning that it hurts average Americans while also violating the concerns of fiscal hawks. Frost observed that despite their hesitation to vote for this bill, Republicans at both end of the conservative spectrum seem to "always fold." He hopes that in this case, they can be persuaded to stand strong. "They put up a little fight, so that way they have some footage that they can put behind their ads during election time, and then they fold right away," he said. "Sometimes they stick to it, so we’ll see.” "But the most important conversations, the most impactful ones, are actually [with] constituents and the people reaching out, and that’s why the big strategy right now is delay,” he continued. Frost stressed to Psaki that Democrats must harness growing public outrage to kill the "horrible bill." The more that we fight against it, the more the public learns about it, and the more unpopular it becomes. The only thing that can ultimately convince Republicans to oppose this legislation is fear of their own constituents. At the end of the day, all they really care about is their political careers. "Every minute we keep this bill from passing, it becomes even more unpopular, and every minute we keep it from passing, that means there’s more people going to the district offices, calling the offices in D.C., sending letters, protesting, reaching on social media,” he said. "When that compiles, we get to the point where hopefully many of these members will stick to it and vote ‘no,’ and that’s our goal,” Frost added. Please retweet and ❤️ to urge Congress to kill the bill!

BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen goes scorched earth on Donald Trump, calling him a "moron" and a "demagogue" who has brought about an "American tragedy." And he wasn't done there. The Truth Social response to this one is going to be thermonuclear... "I think that it was the combination of the deindustrialization of the country and then the incredible increase in wealth disparity that left so many people behind. It was ripe for a demagogue," Springsteen said in a new profile in The New York Times. "While I can’t believe it was this moron that came along, he fit the bill for some people. But what we’ve been living through in the last 70 days is things that we all said, ‘This can’t happen here.’ ‘This will never happen in America.’ And here we are," he continued. "It’s an American tragedy," Springsteen added. That said, the singer says he's holding out hope for the future of America— "Because we have a long democratic history. We don’t have an autocratic history as a nation," he said. "It’s fundamentally democratic, and I believe that at some point that’s going to rear its head and things will swing back. Let’s knock on wood." Springsteen previously enraged MAGA world and drew the ire of Trump himself when he kicked off his "Land of Hopes and Dreams" tour with a brutal takedown of the president, calling him "corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous." "In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration," Springsteen told a crowd in Manchester, England. "Tonight, we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experiment to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring!" he continued. Later in the show, Springsteen hit his anti-Trump stride again— "The last check on power after the checks and balances of government have failed are the people, you and me," he said. "It’s in the union of people around a common set of values now that’s all that stands between a democracy and authoritarianism. At the end of the day, all we’ve got is each other." "There’s some very weird, strange, and dangerous sh*t going on out there right now. In America they are persecuting people for using their right to free speech and voicing their dissent. This is happening now," he went on. "In America, the richest men are taking satisfaction in abandoning the world’s poorest children to sickness and death," he continued. "In my country, they’re taking sadistic pleasure in the pain they inflict on loyal American workers. They’re rolling back historic civil rights legislation that has led to a more just and plural society," Springsteen said. "They are abandoning our great allies and siding with dictators against those struggling for their freedom," he said. "They are defunding American universities that won’t bow down to their ideological demands. They are removing residents off American streets and without due process of law, are deporting them to foreign detention centers and prisons. This is all happening now." "A majority of our elected representatives have failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government," he continued. "They have no concern or idea for what it means to be deeply American." "The America l’ve sung to you about for 50 years is real, and, regardless of its faults, is a great country with a great people," he said. "So we’ll survive this moment. Now, I have hope, because I believe in the truth of what the great American writer James Baldwin said. He said, 'In this world there isn’t as much humanity as one would like, but there’s enough.’ Let’s pray." Trump was infuriated by Springsteen's words and launched several Truth Social attacks, calling him a "dried out 'prune' of a rocker" who "ought to keep his mouth shut." He also threatened to launch a “major investigation” into the singer over his support of Kamala Harris and called him "highly overrated" and a "pushy, obnoxious JERK." Clearly, Springsteen is not intimidated by this bully. None of us should be. Future generations are counting on us to to fight for our democracy. Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Bruce Springsteen for speaking out!

@planethank1 @krassenstein Stop spreading lies.

Leftists are cheering for Iran because they hate Donald Trump, it’s really weird energy. Imagine cheering for an actual dictatorship and the largest sponsor of terrorism because you’re mad you lost an election, and pretend the rightfully elected president is a “dictator”. Get it together democrat party.

BREAKING; Iran has just launched a ballistic missile toward Israel, and it’s essentially ICBM-class. Believed to be the Kheibar (Khorramshahr-4). Specs: - Range: ~2,000 km (intercontinental-class) - Warhead: ~1,500 kg - Fuel: Hypergolic liquid — allows rapid launch in ~12 minutes - Speed: Mach 16 outside the atmosphere, Mach 8 inside

🔥 MASSACHUSETTS GOV. @maura_healey: “Trump wants to tell Harvard who they can let in, what they can teach, who they can hire… It’s dumb. It’s stupid. Trump is making 🇺🇸 less competitive, and putting American interests last.”

BREAKING: Congressman Ritchie Torres just went on offense and accused Donald Trump of putting America on decline. This is how you fight back. Let’s go.

This is beautiful. Credit: @other98

I don't care if you're Christian. In fact, I will fight for you to have your religious liberty & practice your Christianity. But you do not get to dictate how I live my life, or what I decide to do with my body. I don't care about your goddamn religion. — Ana Kasparian

If you are not horrified, you're not paying attention. This indoctrination of children is straight out of the Nazi playbook. 😳👇
