Well Mary, that ballot box may be the ONLY way out of this stinky sleazy oily mess. We must protect the vote or it truly will be game over. Also, we all know that Trump will declare some kind of emergency before the next election in order to nullify that election. The sole means of stopping him will be either to elect a congress that will not allow that, or to organize truly massive protests to demand his overthrow.
I truly don’t believe we can protect the vote anymore. I believe the 2024 election was hacked by Musk. If he has installed software to rig elections along with all the other damage he has done to our information systems, our ballots won’t help us. I’m not into conspiracy theories, but professional election groups, including ETA, have stated they found very suspicious evidence that votes were changed in certain places.
I like the idea of truly massive protests, but am not sure that is going to be the answer. When it comes to my Country, democracy surviving and my life, my options are NOT limited. None of us have limited options. We cannot afford to be obedient sheep. We all live by an honorable constitution because most of us agree to do so. If that constitution is seriously threatened, all options are on the table for those who do not wish to live in authoritarianism.
If you don’t believe we can protect the vote, you don’t believe we are a nation of laws. Throwing in the towel 3 1/2 yrs before the next Presidential election is not an option for me. We must not deal in mere rumors such as hacks of voting machines and much else. Instead we must remain clear eyed and evidence-based, and resist the temptation to give up. Giving up is precisely what the fascists in power are asking of us, and I simply will not do that.
Sadly, I agree. I see more and more rejection by the Republicans of the actual results, if they lose. They’ll hold it up in the courts, claim it’s“Rigged”, voter suppression will be widespread.
Why would anyone be surprised by the vile, dishonest, immoral GOP. Toss the bill out with the cover of darkness, lie early and often to confuse your constituents. Stonewall the media and hope you find a way to drag this past the finish line.
It looking like the Dems are gaining a spine and talking out about how incredibly sad this legislation is. Stay loud, stay vigilant. These GOP MAGATs are nuts!! No quarter, no surrender.
If it’s not blatantly obvious by now that tRumps only interest is to make himself wealthier by any means necessary including screwing everyone else, then there’s nothing left to say! Most of us will not last another 3 1/2 years!
Felon 47 the career criminal is making a lot of money. It’s been reported since January he’s been making $1 billion a month. 🤬 The felon and his crime family must go.
Why do All Ice agents wear mask and hide their faces and have no type of identification when they are arresting people, brown people and have no search warrants, This is horrible...
They aren’t ICE agents, they’re proud Boys and J6 traitors he pardoned. He didn’t pardon them out of the goodness of his black heart 🖤 he wanted his own personal army to kidnap and terrorize brown people. We need to rip off their masks and take photos for the world to see.
Republicans are showing how heartless and corrupt they are. Billionaires don’t need more tax cuts. They have more than enough, but they want it all. They are like Kings of Old, who taxed the poorest people to live a lavish lifestyle.
A 4 trillion debt limit increase and huge cuts are political incompetence. The rethugs are cowards and to cover up their cowardice they will resort to greed driven magical thinking. They may assume that if the people were gullible enough to elect donnie surely they are just dense enough to accept a self-destructive vote by limp lawmakers. Denial is a thing the hides in the weeds.
Each Dem should get on tv, blast this out paragraph by paragraph @ town halls , vet meetings…wherever they can address people!
I’m not betting on future elections to get us all out of this disaster. The ballot box most likely is compromised.

I agree completely, plus with Musk in control of Starlink, etc.…

These people want us to die!

The cuts SUCK, just like the majority of the GOP. Damn them!
Tax the rich
Republicans are showing how heartless and corrupt they are. Billionaires don’t need more tax cuts. They have more than enough, but they want it all. They are like Kings of Old, who taxed the poorest people to live a lavish lifestyle.
Resist Revolt and Take back our democracy
I was at the hearing today and folks, mostly disabled people and some already inside the hearing room were arrested. Let that add to the revelation of a disaster for Rs. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5298336-protestors-medicaid-arrested/

i think the Republicans will be paying for years hurting so many Americans who are their constituents. They are idots!
I love these stories of doom and ruin for the self serving Republican Law(haha)makers. I’m starting to get my faith back that democracy will prevail
Taxes on hard working people and giving billionaires and millionaires a tax break. Medicaid Medicare Social Security needs to be protected
It Stinks!
Medicaid cuts can be made state by state or would they happen to be everywhere along that US?
