FIFTY PERCENT of children born here are on medicaid, which is being cut so much they will not be eligible for care. so- now that there will be no rural hospitals, no OBGYNs in these healthcare desserts, no care for infants or their mothers, no SNAP, etc, by all means let have more pregnancies.

It will take a generation for us to recover from what this lout has done while in office.

A screenshot of an X.com post by @Acyn

We live in such a crazy time. A few dozen people ride naked on some bikes and a major party leader calls it 'the most frightening thing I've seen'. If you've let yourself get to the point where the human body frightens you more than destroying those bodies... Holy shit. Holy. Shit.

Multiple “sources” are telling Fox News the swastika in a GOP staffer’s office was just an optical illusion. That’s how fucking stupid they think we are.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Trump recently signed an executive order declaring antifa a domestic "terrorist organization." The declaration may be absurd, but Trump's endgame is clear: to allow the government to label everyday citizens as terrorist threats in order to suppress protests and silence opposition.
