  6. Red States are in general the ones hardest hit both by "austerity" measures, and outright #plunder like these parasitic tariff scams.

  8. The change would create the only federal subsidy to pay #parents to stay home & raise their children, one of the most significant efforts to date by the #Trump admin to harness federal funds to promote a #traditional view of #families.

    To do so, officials are seeking to use a #HHS fund that was created in the 1990s to help #LowIncome & #WorkingClass parents afford #childcare so they could work or go to school.

  9. #Money, the interesting thing about it is if you #exist in #poverty, you desperately need it for your day to day survival, then if your on the opposite end as in being a multi million or billionaire in reality money means nothing, because everything you own and do is leveraged off of debt that you one don't actually own and second can never actually satisfy, and the rules of the game are very different for those in poverty, and the rules are slightly different if your in the middle, but if your on top, the rules don't apply to you unless somehow your generation and hoarding of wealth imposes upon another top income holder, basically if your in poverty all the way to the bottom end of double digit millions, your beholden to the entire state if it where, and beyond that the entire state apparently is beholden to you and your ability to leverage debt, it is a rigged system of epic inequality and strongly embraces prejudice against the rest of us whom simply would appreciate the basics in life to be readily available without so much turmoil, and stress to our mental and physical wellbeing, money is an illusion of power and has left far to many of us going hungry, literally;

  10. A NYT review of #securities filings from nearly 500 companies showed that they avoided taxes by attributing hundreds of billions of dollars in earnings to low- or no-tax foreign locales like #Cyprus, #Bermuda, #Switzerland & the #CaymanIslands. Often, #corporations funneled profits through subsidiaries in places where they had no employees, offices or customers.

  11. Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a true victim of #weaponization

    > "The government isn’t targeting Abrego Garcia for punishment because they think he's some sort of master criminal. They want to punish him *because* he’s an everyday guy who somehow managed to force the regime to bring him home."

  12. In one email, a #Trump appointee at the Department of Housing & Urban Development [#HUD] described decades of #housing #discrimination cases as “artificial, arbitrary & unnecessary.”

    In another, a career supervisor in the department’s Office of #FairHousing & #EqualOpportunity [#FHEO] objected to lawyers being reassigned to other offices; the supervisor was fired 6 days later for *insubordination*.

  13. An affiliate of the exchange Crypto.com gave $10 million, while the #crypto services company Blockchain.com donated $5 million. The venture capitalists #MarcAndreessen & #BenHorowitz, who are heavily invested in crypto, gave $3 million each.

    #OndoFinance, which has a partnership with the #Trump family’s crypto company, donated $2.1 million to #MAGA Inc., on top of $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

  14. States often use the federal money generated through the taxes to pay the institutions more than #Medicaid would otherwise pay. (Medicaid generally pays the lowest fees for care, compared with #Medicare & private #insurance.)

    #Hospitals & #NursingHomes say they use these extra Medicaid dollars to expand or add new services & improve #care for all patients.

  15. The #Senate plan to slash #Medicaid & #ACA marketplace #funding could lead to nearly 12 million more people without insurance by 2034, the #CBO estimates. That in turn would harm the finances of #hospitals, #NursingHomes & #community #health centers—which would have to absorb more of the cost of treating #uninsured people—& may force them to reduce services & employees, as well as close facilities.
