A threat to put immigrants in Guantánamo Bay really means, the first American concentration camp. Wake up America, Democrats you need to be better at putting pressure on your Republican counterparts.

I read today there is a clarification this does not include Medicare, Medicaid and Social security. Remember the saying, “when there is no one left who will fight for you!” Fight together rather than against one another. Welcome to Oligarchy!

In Illinois, Medicaid has been frozen due to the funding freeze.

MAGAts who voted for him are in for a rude awakening. Here comes the “Find out” part…..

Unfortunately (& that’s an understatement), this will take down many others who are in desperate need of assistance who didn’t vote for Felon47.

"Everything this administration does is within the confines of the law, so we're prepared to fight this battle in court”

They are not backing down on the funding freeze. This is very intentional. Cruelty is the point. I just hope their base starts to see these monsters for who they are.

White House will defend Trump's funding freeze in court

The White House said on Wednesday it was prepared to fight in court after a U.S. judge temporarily blocked part of the Trump administration's sweeping directive to pause federal loans, grants and other financial assistance.

But keep your eye on what else is going on while trump is creating these smokescreens. There are already so many lawsuits, holding up his executive orders, with some exception of course, that one has to be wondering what he’s really up to.

Brad Heath @bradheath.bsky.social · Jan 28

A new @reuters.com poll finds Americans have a dim view of many of the Trump administration's blizzard of executive actions, including the Jan. 6 pardons and his effort to limit birthright citizenship.

But they *really* don't like the Gulf of America thing.
