You may be fearing your 401k is no longer enough for you to retire. But with all the cuts to NIH and Medicare you also won't live as long. So the policies are integrated.

We spend tens of billions on defense of America.
But if we spend nothing on education, the arts, science, museums, and libraries, what are we even defending?
What is the American way of life without those things?

Trump, Rubio, Musk and the his DOGE employees, Luke Farritor and Gavin Kliger, collectively chose to kill these people.
Through orders, indifference, and through pushing buttons that meant that some of the most vulnerable people in the world would have their lives sniffed out.

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:
“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

The bottom line? Trump and his GOP allies are running the government like a Ponzi scheme for the ultra-rich. Working Americans get higher bills, worse health care, and no relief—while billionaires get handouts. That’s not leadership. That’s theft. #JointAddress
