Pretty funny that McConnell is the most consistent GOP vote against the slate of Cabinet officials when he, more than any other Senator, is responsible for a second Trump administration.

Congress is recklessly rushing to cut $2.3 trillion from Medicaid. This will have serious consequences. Children and seniors will lose the care they need – and costs will go up for all of us. Call your member at 866-426-2631 and tell them to STOP massive cuts to our health care

For everyone who wants to argue that Americans voted for all this:
TRUMP LIED THROUGH HIS TEETH ABOUT THIS. He claimed to know nothing about Project 2025. Now he's implementing the full authoritarian project at full speed. He lied, and America is going to suffer as a result.

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging:
1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal.
2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.
