House Passes Bill 😔
House Passes Bill 😔
Disgusting. GOP is the Reverse Robinhood.
Ball licking cult clowns, you mean?
Grrr
This time last year all republicans were screaming that the sky was falling due to our fiscal issues. They get in power and first thing they do is put us 30 trillion dollars deeper in a whole by shoveling cash to the top 1% pockets.
The consequences not only here but for the USA using Moody’s are going to be atrocious, now the USA can’t get loans from anyone. They were very clear about it. Plus now without allies is going to be worst for the country
I don’t think anyone in the GOP realizes how bad this will be and won’t realize it until it’s too late to save their careers. Their fault for being such pathetic spineless cowards
Sure, they realise how bad it’ll ne for the citizens, but they want to be part of the King’s court.
This!!
They don’t realize that once the king croaks (or even before then if he decides to cast them out), they’ll have no way of denying everything they’ve done. It’ll be their legacy and the citizens of America will make sure they always remember that
And we should make sure their children never know a moments peace
Sorry for the typo, it should read “…they realise how bad it’ll be for the citizens…” And since they don’t have any experience with Kings, autocrats and the likes, and maybe not even with narcissists, plenty of them will get seriously hurt, maybe not physically but otherwise.
Weird how "patriots" stopped calling themselves "constitutional originalists" the moment their rallying cry became "Screw Due Process!" What Cons say is different from what they do. "Clean" and "single issue bills are only demanded when Dems are in charge. Same with blowing up our deficit.
😡😡😡😡, selfish, greedy
Disgusting 🤢
They're gonna lose votes.
Disgusting!!
Just disgustingly gross that they chanted “USA” at it’s passing while they ignored 70% of ALL of their constituents in order to give Trump more power & please the top 1%, while the rest of America shoulders the burden.
Was there ever any doubt? Fingers crossed the Senate has more sense and will reject this bullshit.
What are we even doing anymore?
Ultimate manipulation... bsky.app/profile/that...
Shout "Section 70302" all the way to the mountaintop. And to your representative.
🤮🤮🤮
And aren’t they proud of what they have done. Who cares about the detrimental outcome for average people
Sorry America, you're fucked.
I mean do we really need to be healthy and educated?
Sad
🙏 Please call your senators!
My senators don’t care. Bernie Moreno and Jon Husted are the fucking worst.
Call them to make their lives hell until they DO care?
They don’t answer their phones. I’ve had staff hang up and reached full voicemail boxes. They don’t even pretend to care, honestly.
Ugh my senators are fetterman and mccorm-yuck
My senators are so far up trumps crapper, we haven’t seen them in years 😞
It won't matter my senators @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov lost their backbones when they shamefully voted for the CR. They will fold like a wet napkin again.. then send out a fundraising email blast the next day claiming they need help to "fight trump".
Too bad my Senators are Blackburn and Hagerty. They couldn’t care less, but I’ll still voice my concerns.
Sadly I know this feeling as well. I’ve already called my rep John Rose this morning to call him a coward. Between the federal government and TN GOP everyday feels like you are fighting off the government from actively hurting you and your family.
Rose will receive an email from me this morning.
Calling Florida Senators? Moohahaha!
Their voicemail is full apparently....
Calls to corrupted cowards is not working. It was checked after "revolution" by Russians
Be careful, Schrumer panics at the slightest hint of missing bipartisanship.
He needs to be replaced in that role.
Anyone from N. CAROLINA? Apparently Sen. Tillis wants to keep the clean energy manufacturing credits-- tell him you agree... From ALASKA? Both Senators aren't happy with the medicaid cuts. If we get those 3, Rand Paul and ALL the Dems there's a chance to scuttle this madness...
Mine is Hawley, the insurrectionist supporter; and Schmitt, whose head is so far up the ass of the felon, no one knows what he looks like.
What’s the point? They haven’t listened to us in years.
Why? To waste your time? Like they give a shit?
Won't help...have you met mine? Rick Scott and Ashley Moody. They are as dirty as they come. Since I wrote to Moody a couple months ago, I've been getting spammed with her maga crap. Wish I could help. Floridians leaning on other, more reasonable states to help please.
done, left message for Thom Tillis this morning
Done ✅
When does it go to Senate Committees?
To contact your senator, visit the Senate website ... www.senate.gov/senators/sen... Under "Senators of the 119th Congress" ...use the menus to "Find Your Senators" ...to locate their contact information.
Or just call (202) 224 3121 and ask for any Senator by name. www.senate.gov/general/cont...
My Senators are Josh Hawley and Eric Schmitt…
Hawley has been vocal against cuts against Medicaid. Still want to see the No vote but he’s not a lost cause. If you want that come to my state of TN.
(202) 224-3121
thirdact.org/act/no-kings...
Called and emailed mine. Also contacted the house reps to tell them their job is not done. Now they need to examine the bill in detail and put the info out to their constituents. No reason the House can't help the Senate.
Lindsay Graham and Tim Scott? I email and call them all the time. They. Don’t. Care. All they care about is their own power and staying in office. The House could pass a bill nullifying the constitution, and my Senators would vote for it if it meant they could keep their seats.
That's effectively what they just did by nullifying the courts ability to enforce contempt. That means their rulings are basically meaningless and everything they're doing to stand up to the executive branch falls flat, and with the legislative branch not standing up at all...
we're left with just the dictator... constitution be damned.
It’s horrific, I know. My only hope is that the courts will rule that provision unconstitutional, as they should. But that would take years, if it ever makes it that far. In the meantime, the courts could be cowed and do nothing.
The problem, as you said, it can take years, but not only that, even IF they take it up and rule it unconstitutional, the fact that the bill kneecaps enforcement of contempt, if people disregard such a court ruling, it circles back to not being able to enforce the contempt.
There is no point in calling anyone. The GOP Senate is passing this by a simple majority vote. No Senator is going to stand up to Trump. They literally fear for their lives.
“The result is a $10,000 gain for Americans in the top 20% and a $800 loss for those at the bottom.” Steve Rattner
My senators are Ted Cruz & John Cornyn, so we know calling them won't do anything!
I have Baldwin and Moron Johnson. Baldwin will vote against it but Moron doesn't care as it will make him richer and he is nothing more than a checkbox to vote party line.
Unfuckingbelievable.
😔
Call your senators! 5 calls app has a script! Call call call! This is a crisis.
It was always going to sadly. Now we just have to fight it and vote these mofos out.
Anytime I call my Republican member of Congress I just get lied to by his staffers about him not supporting cuts to Medicaid. And then he goes ahead and votes for it anyway I’m tired of the bullshit. There’s only one way they’re gonna pay attention.
It's not hard to understand. All the concealed hate, bigotry, and elitism they've hidden from constituents has been given permission to reveal itself by this administration. It's no different from people overlooking what Hitler did to kill millions. Today's Republican is the latest form of Nazi.
Knew those cowards would anyway. Closer than I thought tbh. Maybe the senate can kill it but I bet they won't. Reoiblicans days are numbered.
So many will suffer and that is not a question anymore. It is a statement of fact.
3 Dems died in office which contributed to this. Hogg was right.
The f*&king problem is that we already got democratic senators on record saying that they'll vote "yes" no matter what, if it'll avoid a shutdown. It's disgusting and disgraceful.
It feels so strange clicking on the heart on all of this awful news! Thumbs down to it all. A very sad day in America!
Emailed.
Is it time now!?!?!?!
www.senate.gov/senators/sen...
Also did any Democrats also vote for it?
No democrats voted for it. Three non-votes from reps initially opposed allowed it to pass.
hopefully dems stay unified in HELL NO and show the few republicans afraid of consequences from the president (the fact there even IS fear of reprisal is just fucking nuts and the most obvious evidence that this IS already a dictatorship) that they are not, in fact, alone in their objections
👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Wtf. Democracy is dead. My grandfather had 2 purple hearts in WW11. My dad faught in Vietnam. Sadly he voted MAGA like most brainwashed boomers. They voted for this shit. Now they will watch their kids and grandkids suffer a racist dictator. So much fascist shit written in this bill.
5calls.org/issue/medica...
Every gop lawmaker needs to be hounded. Post addresses phone numbers family members etc. No peace for these fuckers they need to face angry citizens everywhere they go, dinner out, events, wherever they are they need to be told what pieces of shit they are. Never forget what republicans are doing.
Because what was the need for basic human rights. The rich stay on top, and the rest of us get walked on over. Long leave freedom behind and making America great again or something like that. We are in new dark times.
🤬
Markets will crash today in response.
Theres’s some people who will only be touched by this happening , so 🤷🏽♀️
You act surprised. We knew they could, we knew they were going to. The things Ds have been doing are too little, too late, too ineffective. Calling representatives, getting arrested at their town halls, doesn’t do much. REAL organization is necessary!
😢😡!
‼️🚨 Calling all US Citizens 🚨‼️ If you live in one of these states: Find out where your senator will be this Memorial Day weekend and tell them you will not elect them in 2026 UNLESS THEY REJECT THE HOUSE’S ‘BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL’ These Senators will be up for reelection! This bill makes Trump King!
i just received my first EVER non-auto response email from one of my senators; ” After conversations with Ohioans and listening to extended debate on the budget resolution from both sides of the aisle, I voted in favor of moving the budget process forward.” lying jerk.
water is wet
rules.house.gov/sites/evo-su...
The representatives who voted for this to make it through the house need to be pulled up HARD by their constituents - our futures and the futures of our youth are being damned in exchange for the empty promise of political power for these corrupt goblins.
😡
And that socks I keep thinking they are going to let us breathe between bullshit 😒
Sign and pass it on. Our Big Beautiful Strike. It’s time. generalstrikeus.com/strikecard
Please sign the strike card and share. We are at the point and need to prepare.
House are a bunch of fucking cowards who HATE America. Fuck them!
Aaaaahhhh *my face falls into wall
😢
💔
💔
I am beyond disgusted
Devastating! How can we show up the Senate and what can we do if it goes through. This will allow the Trump to do whatever they want and give him the power over this country. I don’t know if this can be undone.
WTMFH🤬
Hey @altnps.bsky.social last time guy won ALL 7 swing states was 40 years ago..Reagan won 49/50 states. When are we going to talk about the election NOT being organic. THAT is the CORE story behind EVERYTHING happening. 4,143 counties in the US..88 flipped blue to red.ZERO flipped red to blue..ZERO
The two party system only serves the 1%
Crooks just like their leader. They need to be removed at midterms
I work as an instructor at Job Corps and we're on the precipice of being completely shut down. 30k young Americans that will be put back out onto the streets or worse. To say nothing of the thousands of staff that will be facing unemployment during this economy.
but, BUT . . . according to the repubs, the economy is BOOMING so they all should have absolutely no problem finding another job immediately that pays them enough to actually survive on riiiight?
Write to your senators NOW! Tell them to reject this bill. @resist.bot resist.bot/petitions/PX...
SHAME ON OUR HOUSE REPUBLICANS
🙁😢
Ugh
This terrible news😞
If Schumer votes yes on this, would anyone actually be surprised?
I wish I could trust the Senate parliamentarian to fix this, but Schrumer has made it clear that bipartisanship is the only thing that matters to him. Also have any provisions in the bill been scrapped?
absolutely tragic 😞
We will not be ignored any longer there are to many lives at risk
Rise! youtu.be/m02W2kYSwYE?...
Blood 🩸 on republicans hands!
Jesus just died a little inside.
bsky.app/profile/sact...
Very worrying
The ability to charge contempt has been eliminated. The last thread of "checks and balances" is gone.
That is the worst part, and it's mostly being ignored. The press and the Democrats should be shouting that from the rooftops.
Not if it dosent pass the senate.
It'll get rubber stamped.
Unlikely. It was already questionable. Then in this dead of night session, it moved further *away* from where the senate has been indicating they would want
Trump has some super secret jedi mind power trick over the GOP. They refuse to push back against him.
Nah. Noind trick. Just his bog standard, tried and true mob boss bullying. They fear him more than than constituents. But thats less the case in the senate. Because they need to win entires stats, not just small gerrymandered hyperpartisan districts, the senate tends to swing a lot more moderate.
They absolutely could rubberstamp it, but for many, they arent sure or worse, know thst doing so means they lose their seat. If i were a betting man, my money would be on the bill failing, and being punted back for reconciliation. And with a LOT of notes for "corrections"
They really don't care. My two republican senators stopped answering their phones in February. They know the MAGA have brain damage and will vote for them regardless of how heinous they act.
But maga makes up only 1 in 5 americans. Which in most states, isnt enough to win on. Especially if theres strong negative turn out which is at this point, is all but assured to be.
Texas is a very backward state.
My two republican senators won't even answer their phones anymore, since February. They could not care less about their constituents.
Some dont. You may be among the unlucky ones. but most do. Because they care about keeping their seats, and have the advantage of representing kansas or alabama. The only ones im aware of that buck this trend are from PA, and im pretty sure its because one is to arrogant to believe his seat is
vulnerable, and the other im pretty sure wont be finishing his term due to questions of mental fitness
The senate will carve it up like a Christmas Turkey and send it back.
Boo!
Trump and MAGA are terrorists. It's past time we stand our geound and defend ourselves from these fascists
🤬🤬🤬
bsky.app/profile/redl...
Section 70302. Needs to go.
And we are surprised why?
Eat the rich
The big beautiful betrayal bill act got passed 215-214. MAGA, you did this.
🤬
The only proper response!
Honestly, I don't know how it could reasonably have been stopped. Desperately hoping we can maintain enough control over our election process to have one last shot at voting in a full Blue Congress (and I mean a True Blue, not a wolf in sheep's clothing)
My heart is broken for you. This is madness and so cruel.
And we're surprised?? The entire GOP are corrupt. Their only goal is power. Their biggest tool is hate...
Hold them accountable. Point to specifics. Don’t let them talk around you.
"It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these time and time again" youtu.be/cEiIN3e_QW0?...
Like passing a kidney stone.
They are behaving as if they know they won’t have to face reelection in the future. The passing of this bill is very concerning on so many levels.
Either that or they feel this won't be exposed in the media. They're terrified that if it is, they'll become pariahs in their own cities. The truth should be told.
They don’t want any reelections in the future and are doing everything to ensure that 😳
They're behaving this way because they don't believe there will be a fair election.
Not necessarily. The most destructive things have me thinking this is being done with full expectation of Dems sweeping into power. Why? Because so much of this would take years or decades to fix, and damage to the economy means Dems cannot repair/create or, worst case, may preside over a default.
Meanwhile, Dems will not be able to spend much due to blown up deficit levels and tax revenues will be low due to IRS evisceration, state bankruptcy, and widespread cratering of key industries/employment sources.
That's what really worries me.
the cynical view of “it’s because they won’t hold fair elections” needs to give way to the more likely view of “they think dear leader will protect them and they’re too stupid to consider how it’ll backfire on them.” But backfire on them it will. We all need to make sure of that
👿💩 stinking across America!
well...people gotta learn i guess
The Ball is in the Senate's Court now. Let's see if 20 States' Republican senators stick to their guns to not let it pass. Sadly, I'm not surprised my State is all for it, because a huge part of the bill is allowing public land in Utah and Nevada to be sold.
😮💨
😒
No budget is better than a bad one
ReThugLican Murder Bill
The Krazy Kongressional Krap Act.
Man bites dog. Man has rabies.
with the trans care for adults being removed from Medicaid, private insurances will most likely drop trans care as well So fucked. Literally panicking cause you know they will start with detransition or get deported Terrified. Need to escape this country
It's not done yet, but preparing is a good idea.
When was it, a couple years ago one of the republican governors said “if you take away their help then they will be forced to go to work” It’s inhumane to treat people this way.
We need to hit each congressperson in the wallet. Find out their Achilles heel.
🤬🤬🤬
🤬
🤬🤬🤬
Actions speak louder than words. After months of lies, Republicans show who they are. Don't let them off the hook.
Of course they did.
How can we get the word out that our congresspeople just voted to kill their constituents?
🤬
There is more than Medicaid that will die from this bill. He will have no check and balance.
So we are now under dictator no check and balance ?
“The result is a $10,000 gain for Americans in the top 20% and a $800 loss for those at the bottom.” Steve Rattner
🤬😭
Passed by 1 vote and Democrats have three vacant seats from members dying. Stop voting for old people!
This isn't the time for criticizing! Have some respect! Just kidding. This is the perfect time for that exact criticism. This isn't the first time a dem refusing to leave then dying has caused a major problem There needs to be upper age limits for so many reasons
So evil
How did the house move past Bill?
All they cared about was getting out for the holiday weekend. Absolutley spineless.
After seeing that horrible bill passed I keep thinking of the French Revolution and the Storming of the Bastille for some reason 🤷🏼♀️
Its the only thing that will stop this 🤷🏽♀️
The French have a lot more balls than Americans. And most of the people in the resistance are women— we need some militant feminists leading the way. Peaceful protests clearly do not work.
It seems clear that this administration cannot be shamed by non-violent protests!
They’re pushing our hand.
For sure!
Vile inhuman traitor fucks
I guess, there need to be more citizen action
Woohoo. Come on Senate let’s get my president’s agenda going!
Guess I’ll just die once my Medicaid is taken 🫠😞
I think that may be the idea. I'm terribly sorry.
It definitely is the idea, along with maximizing their profits. It really doesn’t make me feel any better to know that, either. I suffer too much every day to deal with even more bs.
They want people using the private hospitals creating in people debs they can’t paid.
Yep. And that’s also why they love forced birth/no abortions. Birth is expensive, and they can charge for it.
Same, just started chemo.
