Not sure who needs to hear this but bipartisanship with Trump and these extremist billionaires isn’t going to work. They want power at all costs and won’t give an inch. Democrats need to fight them with everything we got.
Did y’all know that approx 90% of fentanyl smuggled into the U.S. are not by migrants crossing the border, but at legal ports of entry. Did y’all also know that immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than U.S. citizens? The more you know…
Another reason to not work with the DOGE billionaires is that they want to redistribute wealth from working class families into the pockets of the billionaire class and the companies they own. There’s nothing to negotiate with them, we can only fight back.
We have a housing crisis, food costs are too high, and folks can barley afford to pay rent. Yet Republicans in congress scheduled 1 vote today in the House: Communism in Schools. What a waste of time. I voted no.
House vote on communism in schools passes.
Why should we work with two billionaires that are hell bent on destroying public benefits and healthcare. Democrats need to oppose their efforts with everything we got. There is no room for partnership.
