Trump floats taxpayer bailout for Middle Eastern autocracy

On Tuesday, President Trump said he is considering a financial bailout for the United Arab Emirates (UAE), an autocratic state experiencing an economic downturn due to the war in Iran.

Doddering dipshit #GenocideJoe said he'd VETO such an effort recognizing healthcare as a right. Of course, repugniQant fascists have no morals, decency or ethics. Time to get rid of both groups of oligarch shit-eating assholes.

Mexico Is Going All In for Universal Health Care

At her morning press conference on April 7, President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that the credencialización process, or enrollment, for Mexico’s new universal health care service was set to begin. The goal, she explained, was unambiguous: “By the time we leave office, any Mexican will be able to go to any public health institution and receive care for any condition.”

To my surprise, the depths of my hatred for doddering dipshit, #GenocideJoe and his truly evil brand of neoliberal democrat has deepened even further.

"In the United States, the First Amendment explicitly protects the rights of students to protest by guaranteeing their freedoms of speech, assembly, and petition."

"Establishment media and political pundits conflated student protests against the Israeli government with antisemitism, providing a rhetorical weapon for the incoming Trump administration. But that administration was still months away. The assaults on constitutional rights on college campuses were happening under the leadership of the president and political party most people in higher education seemed to support: Joe Biden and the Democratic Party."

"The U.S. support for Israeli operations in Gaza and the clampdown on campus protest were not the root causes of the crisis. They merely exposed it as an increasingly transparent political agenda. Decades of neoliberal restructuring had already hollowed out the public mission of higher education, weakened collective bargaining power, eroded shared governance, undermined academic freedom, and transformed students into customers, all while deprofessionalizing faculty."

@Pineywoozle @maggiejk @Emerson61 You're blaming the voters (and those who did not). People won't listen to that haranguing any more. Dems have fucked over the working class, people and planet to service owner-donor 0.1% rentier parasites--THEY DO NOT REPRESENT US. Worse? That "blame them" a) deflects from where the blame belongs: Squarely on #GenocideJoe and Harris and b) results in Dems LOSING because people are sick of this shit of assholes like Fetterman, Torres, Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi and all the creepy old shits who, like Starmer's Labor and Carney's Liberals are bought fucking puppets.

BLUE needs to mean BETTER GENUINE CANDIDATES.

Or DNC Ken Martin Dems will keep fucking losing.

Getting rid of Dems like Schumer and Jeffries will be ESSENTIAL. Esp if they agree with doddering dipshit, #GenocideJoe who promised to VETO any medicare-for-all bill that came to his desk. Yes, we have to get rid of the RepugniQants first--but those useless assholes need to go.

This makes it clear HOW to frame the messages. And that's EASY. We ALREADY pay for healthcare in our taxes--and in the cruelty of the current corrupt, fucked up "system" of theft and harm/killing. And there's ALREADY PLENTY OF RESOURCES to tap to pay for it. Tax the 0.1% MUCH higher. Financial transaction tax (tiny one). Cut the bloated, corrupt and incompetently run military.

Medicare for All Is an Electoral Winner

Working-class voters already back Medicare for All. Framed like Social Security — as a benefit earned from work, not a handout — it can reach two-thirds support.

@HakeemG Dude, you already lost it with that crack about Sanders. Fuck off with your hiding behind factoids to avoid the goddamned truth about your doddering dipshit #GenocideJoe brand of Democrat.

#Gaza was a blueprint for what is happening to #Lebanon. And for those liberals who wishfully insist that #KamalaHarris would never have let #Israel’s bombing of #Beirut happen I have to ask: if she was permissive as VP of atrocities in #Palestine, why the fuck wouldn’t she allow Israel its #warcrimes of today?

And WTF has Kamala #Harris ever done — besides serve up some convenient campaign promises — to demonstrate that Lebanon would be different than Palestine? I’m talking real #policy proposals that defied #GenocideJoe. What did she ever do to earn the votes of progressives opposed to Zionist #genocide?

@greenpeace The US and Israel have been committing WAR CRIMES FOR DECADES.

And so what? Whatcha gonna do about it? Who will be held responsible? Certainly, doddering dipshit #GenocideJoe only installed milquetoast Merrick who did NOTHING against Trump for his 1st terms crimes and THEN BELLIGERENTLY SUPPORTED GENOCIDE BY BIBI THE BUTCHER.

FUCK ELITE IMPUNITY.
