Never been more ashamed of my country in my life honestly
There’s always tomorrow’s atrocity.
This is the most ashamed of my country I have been, so far.
Not looking forward to finding out why I’ll be even more ashamed next week.
Yet.
Making ICE the 3rd largest paramilitary force in the world, after China (better funded than the entire Russian army) means your future will be filled with constant nightmares.
July 4th?
Unfortunately shame isn't going to make anything better. Your politicians 'slamming' the other side isn't going to change anything either. Those opposing the fascist cult need to organize and have a plan, or it's only going to get worse. I realise however this is easier said than done.

Democrats should give everyone killed by this bill a public face:
Tom Smith, 45, died because Republicans withheld his medication.
Anne Miller, 78, starved because Republicans struck her food stamps.
It could be a memorial.
Lol... Chuck Schumer actually celebrated getting the bills name changed procedurally as Trump toured the first concentration camp
Democrats should have a non-stop parade of victims telling their story already. Instead, they're making speeches to empty rooms on cspan
That's because Democrats are Republican Lite. Don't vote dem, vote progressive. Fuck every single Democrat till they hurt.

We need like 75 AOC’s and a whole army of Luigi’s.
We will only get one of each.
I wouldn't recommend putting yourself through it, but if you watch Johnson's speech, every Republican looks positively giddy about killing grandma. CSPAN did us dirty by not zooming out to show their faces as they rubber stamp the American Nazi Enabling and killing the poor act that rendered their jobs useless.
There is hemming and hawing to the public, but make no mistakes, they're proud of themselves and think nothing bad will happen to them. So far they're right.
I’ll laugh at every dying MAGAt.
Turns out that like so many other things, all of the noise about "replacement theory" was just conservative projection. They claimed that there was some sort of determined effort to eliminate whites because they were right in the middle of a determined effort to eliminate non-whites (and non-cis, non-het, non-christian, etc.) and as they do, they assumed/pretended that everyone else is as evil as they are.
This is the way it's going to work, by design:
- Companies will not only avoid DEI hires, but will avoid hiring minorities broadly, for fear that they'll be accused of following DEI policies and punished by the Trump regime. So minorities are going to end up even more discriminated against.
- Without sufficient Medicaid funding, employer health insurance will be the only way that most in the US will be able to get healthcare.
- Denied employment and denied Medicaid, people - and disproportionately minorities - will die.
No wonder the Republicans are giddy.
As much as I agree with your analysis, living in a rural town in a red state, it's mostly poor, white people here. It's a healthcare desert now. They will die just as fast as minorities in urban areas.
Oh absolutely. Minorities will disproportionately suffer and die, but nothing close to exclusively.
More broadly, disadvantaged people will suffer and die. Minorities are already overrepresented among the disadvantaged and under the overtly bigoted policies of the Trump regime, they will be even more overrepresented, but that's just something of a bonus to the would-br oligarchs. They're excited at the prospect of culling poor people, pretty much regardless of the details.
My experience is that a lot of rural people are in healthcare.
May they have the day they voted for when they face losing employment and the few remaining rural providers.

Don’t forget women. DEI bans unintentionally will force them back into the kitchen.
Fuck this timeline.
unintentionally
Yeah, no. It's definitely intentional.
This is the party that is rubbing one out over denying women the right to vote.
Unintentionally?
Whelp there goes my health insurance. Guess I'll just die!
Yeah. I'm not shocked or anything, but there's a very nonzero chance that I'll be vomiting blood on the floor of my kitchen in the coming years until I exsanguinate.
At least I won't be a drain on the taxpayers anymore. Thanks, abstainers, for saving a poor wretch like me the immense burden of continuing life.
I'm just saying, Luigi got screwed out of health care too.
Our state reps response to losing healthcare was "we're all going to die someday" with a fucking smirk.
That was them telling you straight up you should kill them.

They branded it as christian because that is exactly what it is. Christianity is historically the group of people who rape, pillage and enslave humanity. It's about power, cruelty and forcing their sick religion on us. They are not victims, they are the victimizers. They do not care for & feed the poor, like "jesus" did, they let humanity die, like in noah's flood, that their "god" created. Evil!

"Votinft to starve babies"? I don't think there's anything that can make a Republican more erect than that.
