Kamala Harris: When this guy is talking about the economy is roaringβ¦
Whoβs it roaring for when you put a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid? You know what Medicaid funds? Families with children, pregnant women, seniors, people with disabilities. Meanwhile, a $1 trillion tax cut for the richest people
These two showed up last night, hope that they realized what they have done ....
Look at their eyes.....
Our founding fathers would be ashamed

Every time we check out at the grocery store or open a bill, working people see this economy for what it is: an everyday struggle.
Trumpβs economy works for CEOs and billionaires, but the βGolden Ageβ has not made life more affordable for us.

And to celebrate its centennial year, we're welcoming you to see all that our state has to offer along the way.

Bible verse to ponder, God speaking: βIs it by your discernment that the hawk soars, that he spreads his wings toward the south?β Job 39:26 NAB 1970 This hawk was only slightly larger than a Blue Jayβ¦ Relaxing, with one leg tucked-up, feathers fluffed out a bit, this little hawk arrived unexpectedly, resting ~ 10 minutes or so, casually gazing all around. Seen on a mild, recent February day.
A really small desert hawk,
only ~ 20 feet from my window,
peacefully gazing heavenwardβ¦
In Biblical traditions, a hawk can symbolize
the beneficial need of divine wisdom, life guidance;
than relying solely on our own sense of awareness.

The heads of Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla all joined Trump at his inauguration.
Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks β paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.
This is what oligarchy looks like.
