I feel for the millions of Americans who will lose health care coverage because of this bill. They have been betrayed and misled by their leaders and deserve better.
The fact that all these Republican lawmakers are running around trying (& often, failing) to get specific carve outs in their own bill so THEIR community isn’t subject should tell you all you need to know.
If they think it’s so great, why don’t they want it as-is for themselves?
Bukele’s prison system has become a right-wing fantasy.
No trials. No lawyers. No due process.
Just barbed wire, muscle, and silence.
Florida Republicans visited CECOT earlier this year and called it “inspiring.”
Just one lifetime ago in the United States, our grandfathers could buy a home, buy a car, have 3 to 4 children, keep their wives at home, take annual vacations, and then retire… all on one middle-class salary. What happened?
McGovern: "So I say to my Republican colleagues -- what's wrong with you people? In this bill you provide a $2 billion tax break for gun silencers, but you cut SNAP benefits for vulnerable families. Jesus Christ!"
It costs taxpayers $89,425 to incarcerate one person at Trump’s “Alligator Alcatraz” per year.
That’s more than what 95% of Americans spend on housing and food.
Republican priorities: Waste tax dollars torturing immigrants, while cutting support for working class families.
People are always repeating the "Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by ignorance" line. But lowkey, I'm starting to believe that a significant number of people are being malicious and hiding it behind feigned ignorance.
We sent hundreds of people, including more than 50 people who came here legally and never committed any crime to be beaten, tortured, and threatened with death and all the rest are still there with no recourse at all

This is beyond disturbing for so many reasons, but the biggest one is that 65 million is the total number of Americans who happen to be Latino.
They are saying the quiet part as loudly as they can- they want to eradicate them all.
Alligator Alcatraz was built in 8 days
It took just over a week to create a massive concentration camp
Remember this the next time those in power claim they can't house the homeless, feed the starving or provide medical care to the poor
They can, they don't want to
