Replacing workers with ppl sent to detn camps or removed from the US? The AG Sec: BBB mandated that recipients of #Medicaid be employed -some of them to work in the fields!
MCDC isn’t a welfare program, it’s a health INSUR prgm.💰: not going to dudes loafing on their couches💰➡️going to Drs treating those dudes for MED conds.
Polling found that most Americans understood: it's not a welfare program *with the exception of Trump’s R party.
>1/2 of MDCD recipients: Rs.

This spring, #Trump appointed a council of Cabinet members, governors & #emergency management experts, tasked with recommending changes to #FEMA. #GregAbbott & the top emergency official in #Texas, W. Nim Kidd, are both on that council.
"FEMA is slow & clunky & doesn't solve the needs of those who need it the most," Abbott said at the first meeting of the FEMA Review Council in May. "States have proven that we can move more nimbly, more swiftly, more effectively."
[oh really?]

Yeah, nah — @gavinnewsom.bsky.social is right, Republicans pretending to care about “states rights” is officially over Kristi You can’t occupy and invade a state then claim to care about states rights, sorry
The Superman radio show devoted a remarkable percentage of its episodes to storylines involving anti-racism, anti-anti-Semitism, respect for immigrants, etc. If the president had listened to it growing up, we might all be better off. https://www.arcdigital.media/p/why-maga-hates-superman
A really helpful few posts from a Junior Doctor who is paid £20 an hour explaining her pay and conditions.
In all of this we should remember that since 2008 pay for junior doctors has fallen by 20.8%. Over the same period from 2008 to 2025, the basic salary of MPs climbed from £63,291 to £93,904, an increase of 32.6%. Not including all their expenses.
Seems to me that they worth way more than 20 quid an hour.
***ADVICE FROM WILDFIRE LAND: DO NOT EVER call 911 to ask if you should evacuate. If you are unsure or feel unsafe, EVACUATE. Dispatchers know nothing about your situation and have near zero situational awareness of where you live, the terrain, nearby dangers. Just GO.
Just a quick reminder for all voters, regardless of district. City Council is a nonpartisan position. Anyone mentioning the party affiliation of any candidate does not have the voters' best interest. #Alabama #BaldwinCounty
@DemocracyMattersALot almost no senators read bills (yes, that includes your favorite one), it would be physically impossible, please everyone stop believing that they are lawmakers. They're the public face of corporations and powerful private interests, which now run at the behest of the executive branch. We don't have the luxury of living self deceptive lies anymore.
