@CultureDesk @AssociatedPress Knowing Trump and Republicans in Congress, the new murals will be an homage to the January 6th mob.
@GottaLaff @3x10to8mps I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if Joe and Mika negotiated this purge when they crawled down to Mar-a-Lago.
@Nonilex Handwriting on the wall — DOGE is going to take money from the bank accounts of people who had their student loans forgiven during the previous administration.
@GottaLaff @nicolesandler I think it will get even worse as the FCC launches more investigations into news outlets that aren’t bowing down to Trump and Musk. They are already investigating Comcast/NBC Universal for supposed “DEI” violations and I think it’s only a matter of time before the FCC starts attacking people like Rachel, Lawrence and Katie Phang.
@TucsonSentinel “ Immigrants have long flocked to caregiving jobs. While the foreign-born make up 17.7% of the US workforce, they account for 42.4% of home health care aides, said Steven Hubbard, senior data scientist at the American Immigration Council, citing 2023 Census Bureau data. Some 6.4% of them are undocumented immigrants.”
Deportations will also very significantly impact care for the elderly in nursing homes, assisted living and receiving home healthcare.

How Trump’s immigration plans could affect care for your elderly parents
Terry Hodge would have a tough time caring for the 150 or so elderly women at Bethany Health Care Center without the dozens of immigrant nursing assistants, housekeepers, dietary aides and other staffers at the Framingham, Massachusetts, facility.
@GottaLaff “I don’t recall …”
@Nonilex So they will force FBI staff to resign or be fired and then go after them when they’re no longer employees?
@charlotteclymer As an atheist, I find Jeffries’ solution to Trump’s destruction of our democracy (essentially, “thoughts and prayers”) more than a little unsettling. 😩
@TucsonSentinel “U.S. Juan Ciscomani (R-CD6) did not respond to a request for comment on the Trump administration’s decision.” Of course not, Ciscomani is a member of the MAGA cult. Indivisible should plan a gathering outside of his office.
