This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode deficits
3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.
4) Repeat.

Government abductions are unconstitutional.
Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional.
If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute…
They’ll get to you soon enough.

Every American has the right to know what DOGE is doing with their personal information. I submitted a Privacy Act request to DOGE, demanding they tell me why they have my Social Security number and direct deposit information.

The GOP funding bill is a direct attack on working people.

Many of my posts include ways I recommend to #Resist. In the comments many of you have great ideas on how to do so effectively.
altFWS tips for resistance:
10) Engage local elected officials you know. Encourage them to speak up for your community. This has more power than you realize.
