🚨 The 99-Page Republican Budget Just Dropped And It’s Brutal
House Republicans just unveiled their 99-page budget, and the numbers don’t lie, it’s packed with cuts that hurt everyday Americans. Here’s what’s getting slashed:
🔴 VA Healthcare ⬇️ $15 BILLION – Less funding for medical services & private care. Veterans get longer wait times. 🇺🇸
🔴 Rural Broadband ⬇️ $50 MILLION – Internet expansion for rural communities? Not a priority. 🚜
🔴 Food Assistance for Seniors ⬇️ $100 MILLION – Cuts to the Commodity Supplemental Food Program. Seniors struggling to eat? Too bad. 🥫
🔴 Medicaid Hospital Funding ⬇️ $8 BILLION – Payments to hospitals serving low-income patients delayed & reduced. Expect closures in rural & urban areas. 🏥
🔴 Affordable Housing ⬇️ $34 MILLION – Less rental assistance for low-income families, veterans, & seniors. Homelessness? On the rise. 🏠
🔴 Border Security ⬇️ No New Hiring – No extra Border Patrol funding. So much for “secure the border.” 🤷
🔴 Cybersecurity ⬇️ No Increase – No boost in funding to combat China, Russia, & North Korea’s cyberattacks. National security? Who needs it. 💻 🇺🇸
🔴 WIC (Women, Infants, & Children Program) ⬇️ $1.5 BILLION UNDER REQUESTED LEVELS – Nutritional aid for struggling mothers & kids—not a priority.
🔴 Flood Prevention & Disaster Relief ⬇️ $500 MILLION – Less funding to protect red states from floods & hurricanes. Florida, Texas, Louisiana… good luck. 🌊
The bottom line: These aren’t just numbers—they’re real people losing healthcare, housing, and security. And yet, some in Congress will brag about this budget.
Ask them: “Which of these cuts are you proud of?” 🤨

For the ignorant Americans who don't understand what US Aid to Ukraine actually looks like, please read and share this list:
- The vast majority of the military aid we're providing Ukraine comes directly from existing U.S. military stockpiles.
- These weapons aren't brand new; they're mostly older stockpiles that the U.S. military planned to replace anyway.
- The funding approved by Congress actually goes to American companies (like Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Boeing) to build new, upgraded weapons for OUR OWN military.
- This helps the American economy:
Supports thousands of American jobs
Strengthens American manufacturing
Ensures our military gets newer, better weapons
- Ukraine gets help against Putin's aggression. From his military's horrific violations against innocent women and children.
- America gets stronger, safer, and better equipped in the process.

To all the MAGAs bitching that we don’t owe anything to Ukraine…
On December 5 1994, at a ceremony in Budapest, Ukraine joined Belarus and Kazakhstan in giving up their nuclear arsenals in return for security guarantees from the United States, the UK, France, China and Russia.
Educate yourselves on the promises our country (and others) have made and what it means for diplomacy!

I’m the dairy farmer running to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District.
Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

Republicans want to tell you what books you can read, what bathroom you can use, what words you can say, what history you can learn, what you can or can’t do with your own body and what gender you are… but tell me more about how the Dems are “coming for your freedoms”.
Idiots.

Between Gaetz, Gabbard, RFK, Dr. Oz, the WWE lady….it’s a lot. We owe it to the millions of men and women who serve in our military, to pay attention to this.

I understand the sentiment to want to disengage, but experts on authoritarian goverenments remind us that it’s at the beginning of these regimes where the people have the best chance to fight back. That’s us and that’s now.

They're finding irregularities in absentee and early voting in Texas, Florida, Georgia and Pennsylvania. Please call your secretary of state and have them look up your name and they'll be able to find out if your vote was tabulated correctly.

Trump did NOT win a little over half the country. Voter turnout was only about 65%. Trump won barely 50% of the votes cast. That means Trump won ONLY 33% of the country. Yep only one third of eligible voters! That's it!!

I agree 100% with @RadioFreeTom on this. Trump and his minions are evil, but also incompetent.

Okay Canada, Trump is President of the USA again. It’s done and it’s hopeless. Now, let’s turn our attention back to Pierre Poilievre again. Because we have a lot of work to do making sure that little weasel doesn’t embarrass our country like Trump does. Let’s get back to work.
