What are blue states even going to be subsidizing once all the social programs are gone? I want my tax money to help EVERYONE, but it appears they'll only be helping wealthy twats.

I was one of the unfortunate ones where pregnancy didn't help at all 😞 It had been about 6 years since my last laparoscopy, so it may have just gotten too bad, and the organs moving can't be helpful. I hate these stupid losers 😡
The old sleight of hand. This is how they conduct business.

Hmmm... good point. I hope someone somewhere is studying this. I'm 45 and can confirm that energy levels significantly decrease with age 🤣🤣 maybe that's part of it 😂
Same! My tubes have been tied for 11 years, but I've still been on the pill for endometriosis. I actually used it as part of my fertility treatment plan when my body needed a rest/reset. These assholes don't care about any of us!
I’m 67, a grandmother, but I might go on the pill just because I hate Elon’s guts.
One of my daughters got pregnant and had a baby at 17. She CHOSE that route, but she had all the options. She hates Republicans even more now that she has a daughter.
They should be testing testosterone levels of all these male shooters. 😡
They're the same new parents this jackass is trying to take mental health meds from!!! 😡
Reminder to these fake ass "health professionals" that the only treatment for endometriosis is hormonal or surgery. Not just 1 surgery, multiple- because it keeps coming back without the hormones to control it (and with them, just at a slower pace). Regular pain meds barely touch it. They don't GAF
Yep. Because that doesn't cause hormonal madness 😵💫🤣
This or something done/taken during pregnancy, I bet. 😑
You guys see where this is going? Right?
Those "the birth certificate should match who you were at birth" people hate me 🤣 I love to point out that my adopted foster children's birth certificates are COMPLETE LIES! They say I gave birth to them and have their "new" last names. Their original birth records were basically voided 😑
Our public schools near me in Maine have vocational schools built in 💙 They graduate with a diploma and a certificate/license, usually with jobs lined up for on-the-job progress towards the master license or degree they are trying to get to. The schoolS partner with colleges, as well. OPTIONS!!🩷

I wish blue states could buy enough to cover the red states nearby, but idk how that is financially possible. This is why we need the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT to pull their heads out of their asses! THEY are supposed to make this equal among states! 😡
Same can be said about red state lunatic leaders ruining everything else positive for humanity and their citizens. Conservative leaders don't care, never have, and never will. How do we get them out?! 😭😡
*Engaged couple has to figure out how their finances will work* isn't exactly fucking news. 🙄
Trump says museums focus too much on the “negative aspects” of American history, like “how bad slavery was.” And plans to purge cultural institutions. But be clear: he’s not talking about alternately uplifting Black inventors, builders, and leaders we were never taught about…
GOP Rep Chuck Edwards is confronted by infuriated constituents at his town hall.
A lot of states have worked so hard to prevent gerrymandering that they cannot do what CA did. Good for the states, bad for this moment :(
Legalize it *more* than it already is.
You won't see this on the news. In fact, you may not see this anywhere. Residents of Washington D.C. march up 14th Street on Saturday August 30, 2025 chanting "Troops Go Home".
And the patriarchy that breeds this mindset. Don't get mental health help, don't have feelings, be a man, suppress your emotions, etc. They are ruining little boys and turning them into hateful, gross men.
The education systems in many states have been decimated on purpose by religion and conservatives. 😡😭
My ex husband is one. I feel your pain. :(
He can pretend to be dead all he wants. I still want the Epstein files released.
I was better at forgery when I was 15 creating dismissal slips 🤣

Thanks again for that, Susan Collins. I didn't even know she was connected to him. 😡
Truth.
My grocery store has bananas placed all over the place 🤣 fruit section, yogurt section, ice cream section, granola section, cereal isle 😂
I better see those news anchors at their desk, arguing on air about which one gets to say it 🤣
They did this to my local Rite Aid years ago. I didn't even know there were any real Rite Aids left!
Vance would actually be super excited if this deal includes unlimited eye makeup.
According to Bride of Chuckys own beliefs, she herself should get her ass home and watch her baby.
I feel like the right to buy medicine would be included in the 9th.
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
They said it will end up in court because of federal vs state coverage mandates. States absolutely can and do have different insurance coverage mandates/control than the federal govt.
Perhaps you should take this up with the leaders that have made the statements I'm relaying to you. They seem to think money and access, as well as insurance not paying, are all issues.
I'm not suggesting punishing anyone, I'm stating what I read about this. It's not going to be how it is right now. Nothing is going to be covered by any insurance the same way or cost the same amount out of pocket. The state leaders are expressing these concerns. I'm not making it up.
They would obviously prefer to have insurance pay for them, though. That is a LOT of money. Like I said, I just read the article, I'm not a professional 🤣
Do you happen to know what approvals need to be done? Can the governor just do it? I'm sure it varies by state, but I wonder if funding for other states would go through a process.
The concern is that red states won't buy ANY covid vaccines. The blue states are going directly to the distributors for their specific states, not the whole country. Why would Maine buy enough vaccines for their population of citizens and then let out of staters come use half of them, you know?
Since the states are buying their own vaccines, they might be limited to just residents. I hope they order extra for neighboring states, but there's no guarantee. I read that for Medicaid/Medicare, it'll likely be a court battle over which guidance to follow and if they have to pay. 😞
I'm a Mainer and love NH! Definitely still wondering wtaf they're doing 🤣
The article in the comments says when it comes to medicaid/Medicare, it would likely be a court battle over which guidance to follow. Not sure about private insurance.
It's a big ask, but I wonder if the blue states near red ones can order extra and help those people out. Not all would be able to reach access, but some is better than none :(
I've been saying for years that we should have built him a Truman Show set and let him think he was ruling the world.

Society should not be relying on religious groups for basic needs. It can be done without church money. The religious right is a large part of why Medicaid is being destroyed. They've been voting this way for decades. I don't think it's a good idea for those people to be the main support system.
Can I just note that every news organization so far, even @mainepublic.org, used a frowning photo of Destino as their cover? It garners a feeling, even subconsciously. Why not use their interior photo instead? It paints a different picture, don't you think?
Those social service programs in my area are not run by churches. The town donates and runs them, or they get government funding. Yes, some churches have those, but they certainly do not uphold the community by themselves. I've never in my life seen a public health clinic run by a church.
First autism, now any kind of mental issue, are in their sights. Gee, couch boy, maybe it’s because politicians like you suck our souls dry and we have no hope, no joy anymore
ICE GOONS forcibly removed a law-abiding man from his distraught children, despite his recent renewal of immigration documents in court. Where is the real law enforcement in all of this, and why are they allowing kidnappers to operate within government buildings?
Would you support background checks prior to men using the men's bathroom? Think of all the pedophiles standing next to little boys at urinals. Why doesn't anyone ever give a shit about boys?
RFK Jr looks like he’s been sampling the diseases at the CDC
It's unfortunate because the staff and pharmacy in my town are so helpful and kind. Sucks when good people have to work under these assholes 😡
Seems to have gone pretty well for the military commissaries.
“Give your kids an extra hug and kiss today.” Jesse Merkel spoke at a news conference outside Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, where his 8-year-old son, Fletcher, was one of two children fatally shot at a back-to-school Mass on Wednesday. Read more: nyti.ms/45HBSKN

Where are the people going to be sent to?
The cover-up involving Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell has been going on for decades. In 2007, Epstein scored a Non-Prosecution Agreement w/the Feds that now may provide a “get out of jail” free card for Maxwell. I explain that Epstein sweetheart deal. youtu.be/OH7WlcLRFcc?...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤮
We'll out breed them... then refuse to educate our offspring, spiritually abuse them and keep them brainwashed. ⭐️🖕
🤮 We won't forget. 😡
All of these Republican men are so condescending. It's disgusting and makes them look like hormonal teenagers.

SUCH A CUNT.
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

Has he ever taken kids to the airport? You don't encourage them to be social, ffs. You are on a mission, you're all tired, probably hungry, one has to pee, one forgot their headphones... it's not expected to be a fun time where the kids look energetic. He is such a LOSER and I haaaaaaate him!!
I remember reading that the voter ID way to vote was screwing Natives. Do you know if that's been improved?
It's almost like the prayer never works and it's always the action getting things done. 😬
We shouldn't be hearing a single fucking word from our government about any god. I'm so sick of pretending this is normal.
Hasn't he been on vacation this whole time?
Does the 100 miles start from the beach for coastal states?
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.

Secret Service? 🙄
I guess the kids should have specifically been praying to not get shot at that exact moment?
Gupta: Here’s why this matters: 1. Because the FDA indications have changed, if I prescribe it to you, I’m opening myself up to a lawsuit. He directly signals that… 2. A pharmacist is no longer able to prescribe and administer a COVID-19 booster that doesn’t meet indications.
I like your idea of miracles.
Ummm yeah that's why I asked the questions. If you have an answer, stand right up and share.
This is what conservatives want.
