I’ll be a vote for Medicare For All in the U.S. Senate.
Susan Collins, on the other hand, recently helped advance $990 billion in Medicaid cuts so the richest Americans could get another tax break.
We may both be from Aroostook County, but we’re not the same.
Happy 80th birthday to my friend George W. Bush!
Your friendship—and that of your father and your entire family—has been one of the great gifts of my life. It has always reminded me that long before we’re politicians, we’re fellow Americans and, above all, human beings.
And for the next month, I’m especially grateful to finally have someone older than me! Wishing you many more years of good health, happiness, and friendship.
Our country is stronger when we remember that what unites us is greater than what divides us.
🇺🇸 Donald Trump is going to lift the ban on mailing handguns directly to homes. That helps GrabAGun, the online gun store his son has a stake in. He’d rake in billions.
In any functioning democracy, this would be called massive corruption and He would have faced at least 2 years in jail.
If a nurse gives a Senator $50 to vote for Medicare for All, it's illegal.
But Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, spent $45 million to get Trump elected. So Trump is helping his family control:
CBS
CNN
TikTok
HBO
TNT
MTV
BET
And more
That’s a corrupt campaign finance system.
The Constitution barely survived today.
By a 5-4 vote, Trump’s Supreme Court declined to let him rewrite the Constitution and end birthright citizenship.
We’re hanging on by a thread. The fight to defend our democracy is far from over.
“I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation at all.” – Donald Trump
“Affordability is a hoax.” – Donald Trump
“Nobody gives a shit about housing.” – Donald Trump
“I love the inflation.” – Donald Trump
When people tell you who they are, believe them. Vote every Republican off the ballot. Every. Single. One.
Huge bipartisan majorities in Congress passed a bill to lower housing costs.
But at the 11th hour, Donald Trump is refusing to sign it into law. His policies have made your costs go up — and he doesn't care.
A man without money is a man without a voice. You could be the smartest man in the room, but if your pockets are empty, no one listens. Family and relatives are only nice when you have something to offer. Get up every single day and work like hell. The world is very cruel to a poor man.
How the fuck do we have $300 billion to rebuild Iran after we spent $80 billion bombing it, when we don’t “have the money” for pediatric cancer research?
Only the Republicans would be low IQ enough to spend $100 billion on a war with Iran to reopen a waterway that was free before you started, and then pay them ANOTHER $400 billion as an apology. Absolute insanity!
Elon Musk is a trillionaire.
There are approx 750,000 homeless people in America.
He could give them $1million each... and still be worth $250 billion.
Still don't see a problem with the system?
So he tore up the JCPOA, went to war, killed servicemembers and Iranian school children forced the entire world to pay more for gas only to end up with a deal worse than the JCPOA??
Trump is giving $300 billion to Iran. This could pay for:
— Student debt elimination for 7.6M Americans
— An end to homelessness in America
— Healthcare subsidies for 22M Americans for nearly a decade
— Medicaid coverage for 3.2M Americans for a decade
— Food assistance for 41M Americans for 3 years
— Federal cancer research for 40+ years
— Free school lunch for every kid in America for over 4 years
— Replacing every lead pipe in America
— Free pre-K for every child in America for over 7 years
