My son uses Medicaid. He is a physically and cognitively disabled child. I am a single mom with two jobs. Not surprised we are the first people the GOP comes to for a handout when billionaires don't want to pay their taxes:

House G.O.P. Floats Medicaid Cuts and More to Finance Trump’s Huge Agenda

What Republicans Could Cut to Pay for Trump’s Tax Cuts: Medicaid and More (Gift Article)

Yes I believe in single payer healthcare, but Republicans are trying to cut ACA funding right now.

PRIORITIES: “Your taxes are coming down! See? Everyone’s happy, honey.” 💰

It's more than that, though. She's lying to Congress, lying to get funding.

The amazing thing about the SNL sketch last night was not that Ashley Padilla wore a scarf nearly identical to mine. It’s that I trust Amy Poehler as AG more than Pam Bondi.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Here's Pam Bondi with Trump talking about EXECUTING "antifa" supporters, i.e. taking care of American protestors like they did the cartels 👀

What?!! This is not normal.

Trump is not going to stop until the country is on fire. He wants violence so he can invoke marshal law and declare himself king.

Trump is now trying to break the law so he doesn't have to pay federal workers.

With all of these workers fired and services cut, where's our tax break? What exactly is Trump doing with all our money?!

White House looks for a loophole in the law ensuring federal workers get paid after a shutdown

The memo suggests furloughed workers are not entitled to back pay, Wpress secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed.
