Trump cut nearly a trillion dollars from Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for giant corporations.
Now they're telling cancer patients and people with HIV that they need to work harder to keep their health insurance.
Unconscionable.
By passing this extreme $70B immigration bill, @HouseGOP caved to Trump yet again. In the last year and a half alone, Republicans have unilaterally given Trump’s lawless DHS nearly a quarter TRILLION dollars with no restrictions, guardrails or oversight.
@HouseDemocrats asked for basic safeguards to ensure transparency, oversight, and accountability of ICE’s inhumane, lawless actions.
Yet the GOP chose loyalty to Trump over responsibility to the American people. Because that’s what they always do.
Elon Musk, who funds the GOP, has called Social Security a "Ponzi Scheme."
Now, after passing the largest cuts to Medicaid in history, Speaker Johnson is targeting Social Security & Medicare.
All after blowing up the debt to give billionaires tax breaks they don't need.
If you think California is taking a while to count votes, wait until you hear how long the Trump Administration is taking to release the Epstein files…
According to a new report, the Social Security trust fund—which helps pay Social Security benefits—will now run out of money in 2032, a year earlier than expected.
Why? Because Trump’s “big beautiful bill” is depleting the fund faster. Recipients will see their benefits slashed by 22% if Congress doesn’t act.
Sounds like a cut to Social Security to me.

Democrats just forced a vote to put an end to Trump’s $1.8 billion slush fund.
Every House Republican rejected it & voted to support your tax dollars going to cop beaters & right wing extremists. Despicable.
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republicans just BLOCKED Sen. Richard Blumenthal's attempt to get Veterans their retirement pay WITHOUT cutting disability benefits. Republicans will write blank checks to the military, then penny pinch when it's time to support our Vets.
🚨CAUGHT ON TAPE: Mike Johnson PANICS after a recorded conversation is released exposing the House Republican plan to CUT Medicaid, Medicare, AND social security for millions of Americans.
They denied it. The recording just blew up the entire lie. EVERY American should see this.
It can be hard to imagine that there is someone who could be an even more corrupt Attorney General than Pam Bondi. And yet, my former colleague @DAGToddBlanche has proven over and over that he is willing to do whatever Donald Trump asks of him, law and consequences be damned.
Right now, we need members of Congress who can toe-to-toe with Trump and his army of loyal cronies. Our future depends on it.
We had press releases about this, we showed it all to you with their laid-out plan in Project 2025... people scoffed at us.
Well, here is Mike Johnson saying Republicans will cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security next year.
Good luck.
