“We cannot afford Medicare. We have wars to pay for.” - Donald Trump

Burn the Republican Party down to the ground.

Flush it down the toilet of history.

What Republicans call “waste, fraud, and abuse” is keeping you and your loved ones alive.

The Republican Congress is the reason that Hegseth was allowed to start an unwinnable war. The Republican Congress is the reason we are having the worst measles outbreak in decades. The Republican Congress is the reason that people are being terrorized by ICE.
