Hey MAGA, Trump is sending $20 Billion to Argentina because it seems Milei’s cuts to government are decimating their economy.

The same cuts Elon and Donnie supported and thrust on America.

There are nearly a dozen rural Georgia hospitals that are on the verge of closing soon, including Fannin Regional that’s close to her district line. St. Mary’s just ended their L&D in northeast Georgia because of federal funding. Between premiums jumping for many constituents and hospital woes… 🤷‍♂️
👀 Marjorie Taylor Greene breaks with Republicans on Obamacare funding, saying she’s not a fan of the law but demands action to prevent a premium hike. “I’m absolutely disgusted that health insurance premiums will DOUBLE if the tax credits expire this year.” She says GOP leaders don’t have a plan.

No one is above the law. The public deserves transparency & accountability from government leaders. We'll be in court to get answers.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

Meanwhile, over on X, Don Winslow created a video that has now gone viral! Shoutout to @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social who won her House seat in Arizona overwhelmingly but Mike Johnson won’t swear her in. This is all a distraction because they want to deny her vote to #ReleaseTheTrumpEpsteinFiles

Messing with learning is a mission statement for Trump

“...Libraries that have our books that we've lent...now they can't ship them back to us because their carrier either is flat out refusing to ship anything to the U.S., or they're citing not being able to handle the tariff situation”

Libraries Can’t Get Their Loaned Books Back Because of Trump’s Tariffs
Libraries have shared their collections internationally for decades. Trump’s tariffs are throwing that system into chaos and can ‘hinder academic progress.’

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

And not a single reporter ever asks him wtf he's talking about.🙄
Trump: "I've ended seven wars. At least half of them was because of my ability at trade and because of tariffs. If I didn't have tariffs to throw around a little bit, you would have at least 4 wars waging with thousands of people a day being killed ... we're getting close to settling 8."

That’s a lot to say for Pritzker. Good for him (hope this quote is real), if it’s real, he needs to get Billionaire Angry. Imagine what Bloomberg would have done when he was mayor of NYC?

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

"When ICE grabbed Rodney, he was in the process of receiving new prosthetic legs. The detention centre is refusing to let him have a day pass to go get them, so his health is declining."
Disabled people are particularly vulnerable to abuse under fascism.

ICE has been neglecting the medical needs of detainees.

One disabled immigrant, Rodney Taylor, needs our help.

He's a double amputee who's been in the country since he was two years old. He's being held in solitary:
Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE
Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

ICE continues to assault us.

We are peacefully protesting. They are kidnapping and hurting us.
