Many of the cuts enacted in Trump's Big Beautiful Bill won't start hurting people until next year:

Key Timelines for Cuts and Changes:

- Medicaid Eligibility Checks: Regular checks change from once a year to every six months, rolling out through 2026 and beyond.

- Medicaid Work Requirements: The mandate for enrollees to work or do community service takes effect on December 31, 2026, though some states have windows to delay full enforcement.

- Medicaid Tax Credit Block: Individuals who lose Medicaid due to work rules are blocked from getting Affordable Care Act marketplace premium tax credits starting January 1, 2027

- SNAP Cost-Shifting: States must start covering up to 15% of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) costs themselves beginning in 2028.

Because Trump's war of choice is causing oil prices to go up week after week on average

Will we see a new record high price next week also?

Time will tell.

But the trend is not a good one.

Prices are inching up every day.

Democratic Socialists

Democracy + Fairness and Concern for average citizens and workers = Democratic Socialism

Why would anyone be opposed to that?

France, Germany, UK, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Canada, Finland, Iceland, etc etc etc

Democratic Socialist countries are consistently rated as the happiest countries on Earth.

Excluding traditionally used monarchs, the list of leaders with their own faces on coins is entirely authoritarians, including:

The Amish have had a much lower rate of vaccinations than the U.S. population.

Hopefully, this'll move them to increase those numbers. And not just for measles.

Our military will be nothing but no-talent racist hacks. Like Kegsbreath.

Seems to be their point ...

The entire point of this was to destroy our military competence which is exactly what Putin wants.

Another felon

Jailbirds of a feather flock together ...

Saw this (LOL):

"Canada has renamed the Mariana Trench the Melania Trench. Both are cold, dark, and swallowed a lot of seamen."

Trump's a treasonous scumbag.

When America and the world learn the breadth of Trump's illegalities over the coming years, MAGAs will become laughing stocks.

The CEO was convicted of felony voter fraud ...

Trump's created a Confederacy of Felons:

Originally, the task of installing a water-purification system to prevent algal blooms fell to a long-time Trump supporter and two-time felon who pleaded guilty to bribing a congressman and violating campaign finance laws.

Russian Telegram channels report that former deputy head of Center E Sergey Shalaginov fell out of a window in Yekaterinburg.

I will never refer to it but as Lake Ontario. Trump can go f**k himself!

We here in Nashville are very happy about this!

Everything Trump touches dies.

The map came back with "Lake America" in the result I got after typing "Lake Ontario" into the Google search engine

I can tell you've never been to the UK.

A dude chats up a blonde coed in a bar during spring break

"Where do you go to school"

"Misssssississsssippi State," she drawls in an accent dripping in molasses & magnolia.

She asks him, "Where do you go to school"

"Yale"
