📖 How to ruin a nation only 250 years old.

It still has to pass the House again and they still have a razor thin majority. It's not over yet.

I’ve been thinking today about how astonishing it is that Trump’s worst impulses have been thwarted, time and time again, by incompetency and the tiniest of margins, saving us. it was almost a miracle it lasted this long. but if this passes? game over. checkmate. our luck’s about to run out.

Maybe he has a senile moment and vetoes it by accident?

😅😅🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Why is our country over from this bill?

It gives ICE 20x more funding than they have currently. It massively cuts Medicaid and SNAP benefits. Elderly and poor people who rely on those services will die. It gives tax breaks to the richest 3% in the country. At its core, it’s designed to disappear brown people and fuck everyone else.

💪

A bullet or a blood-clot would be timely right about now...

Really sad to see what's happening over there. Wake up America before it's too late.

It was too late 6 months ago

More than a third of us is Woke, another third is eyes wide shut racists, and the other third couldn’t be bothered with interrupting their streaming. My advice, be more vocal and loud instead of letting moronic snowflakes spew their temper tantrums.

Not sure what you imagine that means

And let's give the Democrats a nice round of applause for standing on the sidelines for 50+years cheering the Republicans on.

They have the exact same corporate donors. If democrats tried to actually fix the things that are popular with the vast majority of Americans, they’d lose their bottomless bribes.

I’ve just seen the cages in trumps new concentration camp 🤬🤬

It is truly a disgusting time to be an American. This country makes me sick.

Things will worsen, month by month, but your clown king will probably get away with it. If he doesn’t blow world economy to pieces with more insane tariffs, your next president will have to take the real bill. Trump really believes it’s smart to wet his pants to stay warm.

Ain't that the truth. Democracy is dying. Hitler Trump is rising.

This is not a joke. This mother fucker will have us all marching to the gas chambers. He needs to be dealt with.

Hang on, what part of what they said made you think they thought it was a joke?

Was it though?

Not really :/ maybe for like a week in 1998

Fuck America, worst country on the planet.

I say that as an American too. It does deserve to fall and it's collapse was inevitable, never thought I'd live to see it though. I won't be able to escape in time either.

WiFi for now…

Don’t say goodbye yet. It is looking like total devastation but this country will not roll over. We are stronger than you think.

Ugh

😢

THE hog, taco tits IN THE OVAL OFFICE NEEDS TO BE TAKEN DOWN.

I understand the sentiment, SERIOUSLY. But don't prognosticate the death of America. Today, we are still alive, still have agency. Tomorrow has never been guaranteed.

We were getting better. Until we weren't #aMorePerfectUnion

It ain’t over until we give up!

Isn’t this how Soylent Green starts out?

Cornlent Green

It is.

Right?

Didn't quite make 250 years, did it.

It wasn't even fun while it lasted. But yeah, thoroughly cooked

Realtime video of the constitution

Wish us luck! We're gonna need it.

It’s been gone for 6 months ☹️

You COULD move to somewhere else, like Canada or Australia or Europe, but that's just like moving to the other side of a pool that someone has pissed in ... that piss will get everywhere sooner or later. 😢😠

Spot on

Shit was over the second Propublica reported Supreme Court justices were taking bribes and not a single thing was done. Not even an investigation. If corruption is acceptable there, then nothing else matters.

Absolutely this. Have a follow.

it really wasn’t fun at all at any point

👋

😱

As I said, at the end of the day, Lisa Murkycowskiing is a Republican and did as she was told. "It was the hardest vote I ever did." No, it fucking wasn't. You do not give a shit about the people of Alaska; you only care about your re-election.

So hard to choose between good and evil

How was it fun?

*Narrator* It wasn’t.

It was fun friends, good bye 😰

Yes, this, immediately following the cartoon where one guy is calling another a snowflake, because he criticised him for axing a hole in the bottom of the boat they're both in.

THAT is the "trumpy dumpy NAZI REGIME" FULLY ENABLED by the GOP/trumper republican NAZI party members in the US CONGRESS & US sup court & NAZI MAGA goons!!!

I knew I picked this part of the simulation for a reason... It's about to get real weird!!!!

And you weren't weird to begin with alllllllllrighty then

I didn't say that at all I'm always weird....but your world is about to join 🤪

The US died at the hands of SCOTUS last week. The bill merely ensures the demise. My hope at this point is directed towards building something better.

No longer asking for 26 million. We need to be 74 + million on INDEPENDENCE DAY. House members need to be respectful of the voters. Us, We the People. Find a protest. Large cities might have to do it by city blocks to get around permits. youtu.be/WcGQy6Vt6hY?...

We have a long way to go. Enjoy the ride. Stories for the grandkids in a better world.

Trump said he would lower trade deficits. Killing a good portion of your countries consumers should help with that.

And killing people who rely on social security will put more of that money in their pockets. It’s all a grift.

🎶 Life is sad, America is sad, life in America is very very sad... 🎶

It really is.

😭

i've been here a long time, it wasn't really fun most of the time tbh

Agreed. :/

Yep. It is a maga tomorrow for sure.

The road to hell is paved with cowards.

You can roll over. Millions of us still won’t

What happened now ? It must be bad , cos no mention of anything on the eastern side of the Atlantic ....

A terrible bill that’s going to kill millions and make the rich richer. More Trump bullshit.

I cant say anything in case i need to go to the USA in the future... 🤐

Don’t. Avoid the USA at all costs. Make sure the fascists don’t take root in your own government. They’re coming for everyone.

IF America is so divided, then maybe make a line in the middle of America, and live on either side and create 2 countries? How in Human history can a BILL like that even reach to this stage?????? We STILL have elders alive going thru the same shit again(from NAZIS to ICE)!

1% -> If we take down America (The land of the free), then the rest of the world will FOLLOW it's footsteps. Maybe not right away, but they r in the new game the 1% created. Look at tariffs? Instead of waiting it out and see if the people accept or revolt, we instantly implemented Tariffs all over

And when blue gets in control in the future, will they return it all as it was? Think of that when you r not sure a Agenda is pushed thru in a few years from now. A agenda pushed thru!

Believe it or not, this Dollar General Regime isn’t just beatable, their collapse is impending, and inevitable.

Did anyone keep their America receipts? Maybe you can take it back to the store and exchange it for a new one.

Yup. America in a bad way.

beg pardon. BUT we sane intelligent people have PROVEN more resilient than THAT youtu.be/4Epue9X8bpc?...

They’re not bright people. In fact the only smart Americans are named Pat. As in EX-Pat

🎯

Good job America you can stop worrying about Iran and other Middle East countries chanting death to America because we just put the gun to our own head and pull the trigger.

Like everything tRump touches, Murka will be bankrupt within the year. Sad state of affairs.

Must be nice to be you cuz I've been here for 56 years and hasn't been fun for one fucking second

It’s terrible being me. It hasn’t been fun for me either. It’s probably been fun for the top 1%

I can't imagine it's any fun being anyone from what I've seen. I think I was just lying to themselves and say and they like it. I never wanted to be here in the first place. Still don't

Americans contact your Congressperson in the House tell them to say No to the Ugly BILL.

All empires are destined for collapse.

I wish this one would just collapse already. I’m over it.

Me too. I'm just tired.

Yeah :/

Now can we eat the rich?

Good luck to you. Take care of yourself and your own homie. It’s going to get pretty bad out there.

I’m preparing for the worst. :/

Same here

How are you preparing yourselves???

Taking lots of money out of my savings and just save it on my own. I don’t need a fn building to save my money anymore. Cutting expenses that I don’t need anymore. Little things like that. Can’t really prepare more tbh. And that really doesn’t do much either.

I’m currently getting in shape. That way I can protect myself and my family when the time comes to actually fight.

Hoard your medicine, both prescription or over-the-counter.

I understand hoarding over the counter medications. How do you do this with prescription drugs? The pharmacy will only allow you a certain amount.

I don’t think that option is as viable, unfortunately. A workaround for that… FishMox is perfectly legal to buy OTC. It’s literally amoxicillin… but since it’s for ‘pets’, it’s legal to purchase online. Wouldn’t be a terrible idea to have some extra antibiotics on hand just in case.

I hate this fucking country

Good asshole why are you still here then oh sorry mommy said you have to be in bed by 8 so ya cant leave

Me too, friend.

Don't worry. Your neighbors to the north and south hate America just as much, if not more.

More. Way, way,WAAAAAAY fucking more

As a Mexican I know

I would absolutely LOVE to move to Canada. But the actual process isn’t easy. I can’t afford it. :/

Does everyone have their passports! Because damn this is bad!

They used to be cool

Hahahaha. Time to storm the Bastille; people.

Might as well democratize the lawlessness.

It goes back to the house now.

May as well cancel any 250th anniversary celebrations. The Republic won't last that long.

Still has to go back to the Shit House.

"Eat, drink & be merry for tomorrow we die." Roman adage

Yeah, pretty much a failed state now. Good experiment. Discouraging result.

THANK YOU @madisonkittay.bsky.social for this PSA: IF U live in one of these states, I would suggest to start that GO FUND ME account expeditiously! IMO! IJS!

Oh for fucks sake. The bill has to go back to the house, when they change something, and they will, it will go back to the Senate and this starts all over again. If you're panicking right now you should be ashamed of how little you know about how your government works

Writing America’s eulogy as we speak

We are witnessing the tearing apart of America.

Well ... more like stepping back in time and undoing all the positive social and economic progress since the 1890s. Kinda more like deja vu. Especially if they can follow up with stripping all labor movement, new deal, and great society accomplishments.

"When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty." - Thomas Jefferson

I think our country died in November and we are just seeing the corpse.

It was always a sham, it’s just now things are clamping down after people are starting to push back..

Just like what happened in the 80s.. only much worse of course (hopefully the internet lasts out..)

I agree completely.

Like the neighbours have just started to complain about the smell.

Yes. We are rotting.

Boycott July 4th celebrations…so not proud to be an american.

It has to be voted on by the House of Representatives. It can't be signed into law...yet.

Time to take to the streets again. #resist #NoKings #July4

Europe is already training the new Amerilogists. In a few years, they can dig up the remains of the collapsed empire.

Good riddance. I hate it here. Burn it all down. Idgaf anymore.

Red states first

Yes, please.

Yup

Decline isn’t so fun—but it’s reality for the USA

Right? Hoping the house fixes it is how we got here. Stand your ground while you have the chance.

Seems like a good bill to me. Lots of upside.

I am basing my statements on what she said. Go look at the statement she made and get back to me.

Not only a coward, but traitor. After she voted yes she told a reporter it’s a bad bill and hopes the House doesn’t pass it. This coward should’ve done the right thing by voting no. Alaska needs to vote her into permanent retirement. FLM.

The issue is Alaska will vote for someone worse... SMDH... It's bad up there. Their former governor was Sarah Palin... Let's be real here.

Yes I realize Alaska is a red state full of poor and low IQ people.

It's Cold Florida.

hopefully it hurts enough people to get a massive dem majority in the midterms then we can hopefully impeach him for real

(And it’s only been 6 months.)

I want out.

I do too.

Where can we go? Any suggestions?

I wish I knew. I know a lot of foreign countries need native English speakers to teach ESL classes, and getting visas for that purpose is fairly straightforward… but I feel the window to actually leave is closing.

So for some countries I guess you need a sponsor. I have friends in Northern Ireland and Australia who say I can stay with them. But I have three young adult kids and I don’t want to leave them. Canada would be a good choice since it’s so close. If they’d have us.

I want THEM out. This is our country and THEY are the ones who suck. Why should I have to leave it?

Agreed. They can all go fuck off to Trump Island and circle jerk each other for the next 10,000 years. As long as I never have to hear from any of them again.

Or the people who were dumb enough to get tricked to vote for this.

I agree completely. But I don’t think they’re going anywhere.

Not with that attitude

I never had any doubt that the Bill would pass. Those Republican Senators that said they were against it were always going to pass it. Their resistance was just a ploy that was all sound and fury signifying nothing.

Bingo.

Yep. It was a good experiment. Anyone taking level-headed expats? We'll be good. We'll bring cookies! #DumpsterFire

For real. Ugh

Me when the riots start

🤣🤣

So glad I moved back to Canada a few months ago… This is horrific yet it's not done yet.

Yeah as a disabled person my life is about to get so much worse

😢😢 I’m so sorry for all this.

It sucks. I’m gearing up to get on disability too. Not only is it going to be WVWN harder to get on (I can’t work) but now I might have less money which might mean I will either end up living w my dad forever or homeless. It really sucks

Ugh :( I hate this

I really feel for you Americans who are being treated like shit and a fucking regime who wants to kill its disabled citizens and people with longterm illnesses.

Keep talking about us. Make sure everyone is aware of this fascism, and make sure it doesn’t happen to you.

I will do what I can. 💪🏻

I was going to travel to the states to see family but I’m going to see my family in Canada instead next month . I used to love visiting the states but even our own government is warning against travelling to the USA which has never happened before.

That’s so sad. :(

That’s INSANE and I don’t blame other countries for doing so. Don’t support this country if you can help it. Don’t buy our exports.

The UK don’t really import a lot from the USA but I know tourism is down and it’s battering your tourism industry. Remember regimes do fall and look at most of the dictators who finally meet a fatal end and this one currently in charge of your country is heading the same way trust me .

We are watching it all here in the UK and I follow it all on YouTube with the likes of Meidas Touch, Brian Tyler Cohen , Keith Edward’s, David Pakman and other liberal commentators. You have mine and our support from the Uk and it’s fucking disgusting watching your country repeat 1930s Germany

It really is the beginning of a new holocaust. It’s deeply sad, thank you for seeing and supporting the people. I know this country is annoying as hell, but we are trying our best to fight it

People with deep rooted hatred, racism and fascism. We don’t have cults in the UK as such but cults in the USA can sway and influence politics and elections.

I feel sad seeing America turning into an authoritarian country. Everything is being taken out the book of authoritarianism and that’s all being played out of the project 2025 playbook we all saw this even before that dipshit won the presidency. Unfortunately cultists like MAGA tap into the

Shameful!!!

😢😵‍💫😵‍💫

😭

Pretty much. :/

Well, now all those representatives who signed off on it and relented because people saw can unsign when it goes back to the house for review. Here's their chance to look good. Or we are all doomed

247 years. We had a good run.

eyyyyyy peace out homie, was a ride for sure✌️

And he destroyed America in less than six months … 😳 come on 2026 and the midterm elections. And before anyone else tells there won’t be elections… if there isn’t then I demand we GO FULL ALL OUT 2nd Amendment on their asses!

There’s still hope it dies in the House. At least as it’s currently constructed

🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

But the pessimistic realist in me says either way, we're fucked 🤷🏻‍♂️

ICE will win. Citizen or not. If this pos bill passes. They are the brown shirts y’all bought with your votes.

You’re not wrong. :/

I wish I was. But somehow I think it’s the greater goal. The other stuff is a sneak preview of what happens when the man(iac) in the WH steals all the power.

The USA now only exists to feed the billionaires and war.

That’s exactly it.

Yeah yeah this BB bill is going to hurt the world

Sorry i thought the meme would be funny

It’s completely accurate, sadly.

Funny you should say, The House is even More Corrupt...

Shit is so bleak here, and people are applauding for it. Never thought I'd see it get so bad.

I do not know one person applauding.

A large majority of the people on the Senate floor were applauding after the bill passed, sadly.

A fascist settlement built on indigenous mass death and stolen labor will never last None of them. None.

Agreed.

You still have a vote session on the House of Representatives, isn't it? I mean, it sure looks dire, but all is not lost yet...

The Senate is the chamber that hands *more* obstructive tools to the minority party. Because feckless Senate Dems didn't use them (no explanation provided), House Dems now have very little leverage at all. It's a silent coup. Senate Democrats have enabled the fascists for 5 months.

Ohhhh, you say the Dems are a minority on the House of Representatives? Yikes! That doesn't look good... But, still, it seems that even the Reps are not 100% on board with that BBB and the pressure is immense, so... I think there is still a chance.

The GOP is just a pack of hyenas biting over each other to get a bigger chunk of the kill they just took down. They have to message to their constituents that they fought for something. But they're already on board.

Yes. Dems are down 8 seats. They would be down only 5 but 3 of them died in office until the last 3 months. It's pretty embarrassing, but House Dems have at least attempted obstruction, though they couldn't follow through. Senate Dems have given up and now act for those who haven't caught on.

Its sad because you can read their daily betrayal in the Senate Record they publish every day. 🙃

There is a say here that says "it's best not to count the eggs inside the chicken". ^_~ Well, we will all know at the end of this week. Stay strong, mates!

It’s our last hope.

Even from outside it seems that this bill cannot pass the House due to the outcry it generated. But it's still a looong way until this presidency ends, so... hang in there, mates.

Actually, for many Americans, this country has never, not once, been 'fun'. The myth of our exceptionalism has finally been exposed.

FUCK 🇺🇸 🍊🍊🍊🤡🤡🤡💀💀💀!!$

Shithole country now

Yeah fun fun.. s*** hole country. 🤬

This 4th of July, be sure to wear black in remerberance of our democracy.

the rich get richer

That’s pretty much the entire bill rolled into one sentence. :/

*taps the sign

The exact moment that democracy fell was probably when the Supreme Court formally ruled that a President can deploy Seal Team Six on anyone at anytime and for any reason. I believe that was in July of 2024. Everything since then has just been like finding a dead body and not realizing that it's dead

It’s not the bill and it’s not the corrupt government, the real problem is America is infested with greed and hate. There’s no cure for that, at least not in our generation.

"If you can keep it."

Narrator: They couldn't keep it.

The United States was an experiment to see if democracy can survive…… experiment almost over

Democracy is surviving fine in other countries. The US experiment is something else.

I remember democracy working just fine in the US back in November of 2024.

Don’t let your guard down! Democracy disappears fast.

If the soviets experiment was Communism, the US’s experiment is Capitalism. In the end, greed wins as the rich take whatever is left from the poor

100%

I wish people who rely on Medicare could move to the UK and be looked after by our NHS .

I wish they could, too. :(

Don’t fret MilkPork The resistance is gonna need a bigger boat!! #Resist #3E #WeNeedABiggerBoat

I truly hope something happens. Anything.

I’m with you. 🤞🤞

This country died with Citizens United

Will be signed on his desk by Friday.

Yeah, seems impossible that it's gotten this far.

Nah Friday is the 4th so Trumpty Dumpty will be taking a 5 day golf weekend. You people have a slight reprieve to contact your senators and make your voices heard. You only need 1 Rep to switch.

do you really think that makes a difference?? 😂

It passed the Senate today and is on it's way back to the House.

Was it though?

Not really, tbh

bsky.app/profile/john...

See you in the camps. I'll save a stick for you.

Thank you. ❤️ I’ll need it.

Imagine selling out your Country for decades to come just to pay fealty to a 78yr/old man in cognitive decline with a statistical life expectancy of 10 years I guess we don't have to imagine anymore because that's the reality

🥺

Uhhh. He’s 79. Remember his extraordinary birthday parade?

Yup, time for all you reasonable, educated young people to get a passport & get out of dodge... I doubt the red hat will even be able to keep the lights on...

If only it were that easy to get out.

With some bits removed - the AI Moritorium is out entirely as far as reported, a load of anti-lgbtq+ got hoofed due to lack of support (though not nearly enough), not as much toward the military as expected and a doubling of funds to rural hospitals. Some other stuff, but no full reporting yet.

I mean the hospitals got double what they were going to get originally, which was very little. This is still not enough but it'll give people time to bully their reps into getting increases through.

What bill was passed?? And what does it do??

It hasn’t technically passed yet. It passed in the Senate. Now it’s going back to the House. A few of the worst parts… it adds 20x the funding to ICE. It takes away Medicaid and SNAP from millions of Americans. It allows the top 1% to pay even less in taxes. It’s all bad.

Omg 😭 wtf man, that’s messed up

Trump loves it. That’s how you know it’s bad. :/

it's not all bad news today apnews.com/article/jimm...

America will never be great again with Trump and the Republican party in charge of this country. Sorry America.!

It went back to the House. Don't panic yet. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Tbh, I’ve been panicking since January 20th.

Baby Huey will get what he wants. No one fights back, they just whine that it is against the rules or whatever. He doesn't care.

That’s what they want. Don’t give up! Do some pushups, run, jump rope, and get ready!

I’ve spent the last 6 months getting in shape. I’ll continue to do so. I will be ready to fight when that time comes. 💪🏻

I always thought that under these circumstances that this is where the Second Amendment is appropriate. If these assholes aren't traitors, then who is?

It was a pretty good run.

let's hope the house changes it again and then sends it back lmao

Cowards!

Some of y’all are giving up too easily. Yeah, we may well lose this fight, but are you really okay just rolling over like that? There’s an entire House of Representatives we need to: 1. Harass 2. Bully 3. Threaten (with donation money) Last time this passed by 1 vote. Make it 0.

It still has to go back through the House. It is NOT time to give up. It IS time to #BullyYourHouseRep into compliance. It passed the house by one vote last time. Call and threaten those dickholes with your donation money.

I’m sure the honorable members of the House will save us.

Every death needs to be a notification to their offices. "This is to inform you that 'name here,' 'age here,' passed away on 'date here' due to complications created by the Medicaid cuts you voted for in Congress."

100% absolutely!

"We're all going to die" Repub Joni "massive asshole" Ernst #workersparty

They don’t care.

Honestly some of them are saying it out loud. They do not care if people die.

You’re absolutely right. It makes my heart hurt. 😞

That's why this should be done, to make them care. They might not care about hundreds of thousands of people, but they will care about being given hundreds of thousands of notices, nonstop, for the rest of their careers.

Maybe have them read into the records of the House and Senate, too

Bro... They. Do. Not. Give. A. Shit. Cruelty is the point, death is the point. Ita to scare your asses in line, and it looks like its working, no one putting fascists to thw gun as they round folks up for the camps. Y'all being too nice to fascists implementing their plans to kill us.

Absolutely.

This is what these stupid fucking people voted for when they wanted to be “voting for the felon”…

Now goes back to House with more Fed debt? JACK

Welp, I'm dead. Great!

Keep in touch. I’ll be burning in the crevice that opened up no I’m not making a gay pride joke I’m making a god er joke. 🤣🙏

Since the bill has changed it will go back to the house, But if the house passed the bill when it was even worse than it is now for the common people then they're going to pass it again. Brace yourselves. It's coming.

“The legislation now moves back to the House for final passage. If the House cannot whip the votes to pass the Senate-passed version of H.R. 1, the legislation will need to go to conference committee.” Time to contact our House Reps again. Give them absolute hell!!!!!!! 5calls.org/issue/hr1-on...

Americans have to contact their Senators now. You have one last chance before you are all cooked.

Let’s hope this helps wake people up and they vote republicans out, up and down the ticket!

I really hope so. Sigh.

Since the Senate changed it, now it has to go back to the House for another vote. Let’s see what those “I wouldn’t have voted for it if I’d read it” Republicans do now.

Easy. They will vote for it again.

That’s what I’m expecting, too.

“The future's uncertain and the end is always near” Jim Morrison

Lets pour one out for america, And by that i mean let's piss on it's grave, because it did this to itself

We should all pray to that man god they're always raving about.

I don't feel fine myself. youtu.be/8OyBtMPqpNY

Full oligarchy.

I can guarantee that it was not fun for us down here in the third world. Nevertheless, godspeed

si.

FUK

🐀

It was a Republic, but we couldn't keep it.

Fun while it last??

American whine is getting old. We are free people & we have lightning in our hands. Let's grow a pair & exercise our Rights & Liberty. We the People are the boss in this country. We have the Right to Revolution. Why are We waiting? How long are we going to keep taking it? Revolution is the solution.

Exactly! Call and threaten a House rep with your wallet today! And tomorrow! And so on!
