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.

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!"

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?

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.

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.”

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?

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.

Stephanopoulos: “The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher health care premiums. Why are you against that?” Johnson: “That's an absurd statement.” Stephanopoulos: “Here are

Aaron Rupar Physician here. ER wait times are a systemic issue that has NOTHING to do with illegal aliens. Illness complexity is up, preventative care is down (eg vaccinations, etc), and you just passed a bill guaranteeing smaller rural hospitals close which will increase all of that.

If you're the Qatari royal family worth $335 billion, Trump gives you an Air Force facility in Idaho. If you're the President of Argentina, Trump gives you a $20 billion bailout. If you're an American whose health care premiums are about to double? Tough luck.

Trump wants to DOUBLE Argentina's bailout to $40 billion to save his political ally. Yet he is doing nothing to prevent 15 million Americans from losing their health care and 20 million from seeing a doubling in their premiums. Is this what Trump means by America first?

So instead of helping the entire world with USAID - we are sending the whole annual budget to one country for no specific reason at all? Seems legit. So much for America First.

So we have $40 billion dollars for Universal Healthcare in Argentina but $0 dollars for healthcare here in the USA? We have $174 billion dollars for Universal Healthcare in Israel - but $0 dollars for healthcare here in the USA? I was told 'America First' but I'm not seeing it.
