Get ready. Trump is going to fire most of the VA workforce, 70% of which are Veterans, then to "fix" the problems he created, he's going to privatize the VA and send our veterans to expensive, shitty corporate health mills after he slashes health benefits so he and his buddies can get richer.

They were already short of health professionals. Tons of vacancies and then a hiring freeze. Now that those are eliminated and hiring freeze is in effect… vets are not getting the care they deserve.

😲 They’re going to destroy VA healthcare so they can privatize it.

VA plans to abruptly eliminate tens of thousands of health care jobs
Strains on the Veterans Affairs system could grow with the elimination of as many as 35,000 mostly unfilled health care positions, including doctors and nurses.

I disagree.

This is when it started. I do believe the GOP lost its way and its cause after this monster was sworn in.

As one of those Democratic attorneys who was camped out in West Palm Beach - taking depositions from inconsolable grandmas swearing they hadn’t voted for Buchanan, I still have trauma. 🥺

It's been 25 years since a blatantly corrupt SCOTUS decision changed the world.

We may never know who actually won, because they made sure we could never find out.

Imagine how different the world would be today.

This is a fault line I wrote about for @liberalcurrents.com.

The right is united in their bigotry but divided over the best way to express it.

“The more I hit these people the more they fight back. I don’t get it.”
David Ellison appears to be mortified that CBS/60 Minutes is “going rogue” by covering the news and by keeping him “in the dark” about a segment critical of Trump.

Because Ellison doesn’t realize that’s how it’s supposed to work.

3/ Congress gave us independent agencies; the Court is about to give us Kelly and has already given us PCAOB, Seila Law, etc. Congress gave us broad delegations of certain powers; the Court gave us the major questions doctrine.

2/ First, when Congress has legislated in response to national problems, the Roberts Court has repeatedly either struck it down or interpreted it into a nullity. Congress gave us the Voting Rights Act and its reauthorizations; the Court gave us Shelby County, Brnovich, etc.

After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family.

No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I sent those deaths threats directly to him in a text message & informed him of what his name calling & words were doing - it was a direct assassination threat on my son. And he was extremely - I won't repeat what he said - but it was extremely unkind. No sympathy. No care"

Wow: Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named for Holocaust survivor Raphael Lemkin, who coined term "genocide") calls Clinton's remarks "genocide denial."

"Young people in the US are not stupid or gullible. They simply reject genocide – something the Secretary might consider doing as well."

"In the days following the event, the woman says she hasn’t been able to sleep, is in physical pain from the way she was handled by the agents, and keeps reliving what happened. “The way I was treated left me feeling traumatized, humiliated, degraded, and unheard.”"
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”

The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.

It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.
