Disabled people must “prove” they’re disabled enough to receive meagre benefits.
Poor people must “prove” they’re poor enough for SNAP and social supports.
US Senators don’t even have to prove they’re mentally competent to vote.
Yet they decide who gets basic needs met.
My fellow Americans: Please direct your attention to this matter for just a moment. Allow this to sink in. The President of the United States of America just said he wants to ban the free press. He said he doesn’t want them in his office, which by the way is the Oval Office in the People’s House. This is unheard of, and we the people cannot let this be!
For the record, we have a free press in this country. For the record we should all be worried not just about this latest outburst, but by all of it going forward without permission — putting our service members in harms way, raising tariffs willy nilly, threatening buildings and institutions unless his name gets put on them. This is not the behavior of a centered leader who is focused on the good of the people. This is not the behavior of a compassionate leader focused on the millions of Americans who cannot afford healthcare, childcare, gas, or food. This is not the behavior of a man who can emotionally regulate himself.
We should all be concerned — those who voted for him and those who didn’t. The midterms are around the corner. Vote like your life and the lives of others are at stake, because they are. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
A blue wave will not happen unless you personally make it happen. Do not trust the polls. Do not believe other people will do it for you. Go vote and encourage everyone you know to do the same.
Si las personas entendieran que mientras más árboles existan, más sombra, más humedad, mas agua, menos calor habrá, entenderian lo IMPORTANTE que es comenzar a cuidar y a reforestar nuestras ciudades!!!
Trans people have historically been one of the first groups supremacists target when they get into power. They're an easy target: a small, powerless minority the majority can be convinced to think are "deviant," that can be used to acclimatize the majority to violence.
The fact that every news outlet is like...."We'll break down how Trump's $5,000 voting payout would work" as opposed to "THE 34 TIME CONVICTED FELON, DONALD TRUMP FLOATS ILLEGAL $5,000 BRIBE TO VOTERS" is a huge part as to why we're here.
They are never going to give you $9,000 to stay home with your kids. Just like you never got your DOGE check, tariff refund, cheaper groceries, $2 gas, a healthcare plan, or 600% off prescriptions.
At some point, being this gullible becomes a fucking choice.
BREAKING🚨 Texas just MOVED its first maternal death report since Roe fell from September 1 to December 1, so voters won't see how many women DIED under the abortion ban before they vote.
Trump offers a bribe of $5,000 in exchange for votes, the bribe is promoted as a dividend and would cost $1.2 trillion dollars. This is a felony under 18 U.S.C. § 597, bribing someone to vote a certain way is a federal crime punishable by prison.
I think the left should get very good at saying "every day, the people who control the government are producing what is basically nazi propaganda, and every second the media chooses to focus on a random person with no power instead of that is actively aiding that nazi propaganda"
Please when you talk about Israel and Palestine talk about Lebanon as well the death toll has now reached at least 8,948 recorded deaths and 30,638 injuries Israel is committing genocide there too and none of us should be silent while innocent people are being killed
so basically everyone has no money because of reagan, has no education bc of bush, and is about to have no healthcare bc of trump. and somehow democrats are unable to turn this information into a win for them
