I will be so sad when this little guy moves on. I planted this new garden spot this spring, and enjoy watching his visit every day. #hummingbirds #birds #nature

I have to say goodbye to my sweet girl Eartha Kitty tomorrow and my heart is breaking. She had the chance for one last time to rest on the deck today and get some sun. She's been with me 15 + years. 💔 #cats

An exceptionally dark 4th of July this year. I am rapidly losing my relative “optimism” about the short-term future of U.S. democracy and society.
Perhaps the most depressing part is that it is being dismantled so easily by a rather incompetent force.

No Independence Day celebration for me today. I'm going to watch dinosaurs eat people alive. Oh wait, I've been watching that for 6 months. #resist #4thofjuly

This is Nick Begich (R-Alaska). If he votes for the bill,
37,000 of his constituents lose access to their healthcare.
27,000 of his constituents lose access to their food assistance.
578 energy jobs in his district will disappear.

Does anyone ever get a call thru to Hawley or Schmitt's office? I am constantly screaming desperation into the voicemail void. #hawley #senate #mo #stopthebill #aargh

I keep digging new rage gardens to calm my anxiety. By the end of his term, I think my whole yard, and probably my neighbors, will be covered in flowers. #cope #gardening #flowers

Watch and listen.
Passionate and honest @replsimon.bsky.social lets the world know what is happening if this budget is passed.
Unbelievable cruelty upon those who need it most. And after hearing this, those in the committee still voted yes.
Do you think they'll go to the public to say why?

Imagine how massive the tax breaks for billionaires must be when cutting $700B from Medicaid, $500B from Medicare, and $300B in food assistance STILL leaves a $4T deficit.

Casar: What we discovered last night, which is really breaking news, is that they’re not just robbing Medicaid—it turns out they’re also planning to rob Medicare of nearly half a billion dollars if they pass this bill.

The House is getting ready to vote on a budget resolution bill that would continue tax cuts to the rich and cut Medicaid and programs for low income people. It would also create a huge budget deficit. Call LaMalfa today!

These Medicaid cuts will be extremely bad and they’re just to offset tax cuts for very wealthy people

Is anyone ever able to talk to Sen Hawley's staff when they call? Always voicemail 🤬 I know his talk about defending Medicaid will be BS.
Schmidt is all in on this cruel budget bill, had an unproductive frustrating call with his staff. Rep Wesley Bell is a solid no. #missouri #mo #hawley #schmidt

Josh Hawley voted against FEMA funding. Do not let him RUN from his record. He's standing up in a St. Louis press conference about the tornado devastation in St. Louis acting like hasn't. 🏃🏻🏃🏻🏃🏻
