 Why are we celebrating Independence Day? I've been getting responses to my posts and blogs from MAGA supporters and others. They're echoing what Trump and the GOP are saying—that the Big Ugly Bill won't strip Medicaid, SNAP, Medicare, or Social Security, but will instead target freeloaders, immigrants, and able-bodied people who should work. I just wish people would do some research or educate themselves before speaking. From experience, I can tell you that they already require work to receive Medicaid and SNAP. Immigrants aren't receiving Medicaid, SNAP, or Social Security because they aren't citizens yet. Other aspects of the Big Ugly bill include over $40 billion in ICE funding, allocations for the wall, funding for illegal concentration camps without access to water, bathrooms, or food where millions are already being spent, and provisions allowing Trump to bypass the judicial system, granting him power over all branches.

  “This Is Why We’re Here — And Why We Can’t Be Silent Now” To the MAGA crowd. To those who stayed home in the last election. To those who protested the Democrats but let democracy bleed. And to the so-called Christians who turned away from the hurting— Let me be clear: you are the reason we’re here.  The Heart of the Message: You are the reason Donald Trump rose to power. You are the reason his administration and party enacted policies steeped in cruelty. You are the reason families were ripped apart, children locked in cages, and barbed-wire detention camps rose from dust with no food, water, or toilets. You are the reason 17 million Americans now face losing their Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP. You are the reason millions of children are hungry and more will die needlessly. This is the legacy of apathy. Of complicity. Of silence disguised as strategy. We can’t allow it anymore. Trump and the extremists clinging to him aren’t just running a party. They’re dri...
