Now Trump is sending $40 BILLION to bailout Argentina.

This would fund at LEAST a year of the ACA tax credits millions rely on to afford health care.

Meanwhile, Argentina has universal health care.

U.S. support for Argentina could hit $40 billion

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said an additional $20 billion in private-sector loans for Argentina could effectively double the value of a U.S. rescue plan.

Truth!

The United States has defeated fascism before and (We’ll) defeat it again

However, in doing so, life will get much more dark before the light and THAT is a life, for which, most Americans are not prepared

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Keep your eyes on this. We can’t afford to lose because of unfair elections. Keep this on the forefront along with the other games they’re playing.
Saturday, October 18th! Let’s make a difference. Make noise and show them how many of us there really are and how small they are.

Great explainer by Reps @repstansbury.bsky.social and @repangiecraig.bsky.social 💥

❌ Trump’s $40B bailout to Argentina (with self-serving by caveats)

❌ Trump interferes with Argentina’s elections (next week)

❌ Trump’s USDA told states to hold back on SNAP/WIC benefit payouts after Nov 1st.

❌ US Farmers going bankrupt because of Trump’s tariffs

❌ Crops are rotting because countries have bypassed us and purchased elsewhere

❌ Future trade is unstable (seriously 🤷🏻‍♀️)

❌ Trump’s plan — No affordable healthcare for you

We can’t pay air traffic controllers during the shutdown, making us less safe, but we can send $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

Make it make sense.

Trump’s power depends on maintaining the illusion that he’s all-powerful, and that Americans adore him.

But that illusion is harder to maintain if millions of people are in the streets protesting.

This is why Republicans are trying to discredit No Kings Day rallies before they've even happened.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.
