Jack, it’s happening again. Republicans, with help from billionaires like Elon Musk, are quietly trying to gut Social Security and Medicare—programs that millions of Americans rely on every day. They’re calling it the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) but make no mistake: it’s just an excuse to cut the support that helps older Americans stay afloat and and line the pockets of billionaires.
Meanwhile, Trump is once again flirting with killing the Affordable Care Act, even though most Americans want the government to ensure everyone has coverage. Check this out:
🤬 GOP and Musk want to slash Social Security and Medicare.
🤬 Trump tries again to kill the ACA.
We tried to warn them: If you hand the keys to billionaires and self-serving politicians, they’ll come for the very programs that keep us safe, healthy, and secure. And here we are, watching these leopards continue to feast on their own faces, threatening our dignity, our health, and our future just to line the pockets of their wealthy donors. This is exactly why we can’t stay silent.
Thank you for fighting with us,
