Facts. And it's frankly getting old
“Health care for illegal aliens” is the new “immigrants are eating cats and dogs in Springfield.”
The Republican playbook is simple: make up a baseless lie, repeat it every chance you get, hope and pray that everyone blames Democrats for the crises you created.

Trump says Republicans should "probably not" increase taxes on the rich in their forthcoming tax bill.
Meanwhile, his tariffs will hit poor and working-class Americans the hardest.

Republicans in Congress are exploring ways to make Medicaid recipients pay higher fees and co-pays for insurance.
They want to make the poorest Americans pay more for healthcare.

If you're a billionaire, then you'll barely notice a few thousand dollars a year in higher prices at the store from these Trump tariffs - plus you can count on him to get you another big tax break for the wealthy.
But for everyone else, this is a big deal, and a bad one.

The Social Security Administration is now wrongly informing some SSI recipients they are no longer receiving benefits.
This comes as agency cuts have led to repeated website crashes and overwhelmed phone lines.
This is what DOGE's "efficiency" looks like.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.
Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.
