My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA.
I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe.
What's going on right now is not normal.

The Destruction of NASA Would Be a Blow to Our Collective Imagination As NASA grapples with major proposed budget cuts and losing some of its most brilliant minds, America’s willingness to look outward is also at risk.

Everything in this is true. It’s so real and hits so close to home and I hate it.

Trump and his pedo defenders have completely ignored the survivors - going all the way back to the Alex Acosta non-prosecution agreement (they violated the law by not informing the survivors), to the motions for grand jury materials, to the meeting with convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.

Just days after Paramount settles with Trump for $36 million, the FCC approved its merger in a partisan vote. This timing speaks for itself. This is dark and sad day for the FCC.

The "Dems run a pedophile ring" thing has always, always been primarily about hurting Dems, not about protecting children. If they gave a shit about protecting children they wouldn't harbor so many child sexual abusers at every level of their movement.

Imagine being commander-in-chief of the world’s largest military and still being afraid of Rosie O’Donnell.

If you’re taking selfies in front of a sign for a concentration camp, I hope your grandchildren see those pictures in history books.

Yup. No Disney, no Universal, no Space Center, no beaches. Yes, it will impact jobs, but build a community of support to help each other and let money talk.

Do this.

“911, what’s your emergency”.

You/Caller: “I’m reporting a kidnapping in progress. There are several masked men in progress of kidnapping a woman at (street) and (street). They’re armed and over powering her. Please hurry!”

Broadacres Marketplace, a vibrant hub at the heart of Las Vegas’ Latino community, has temporarily closed, deepening fears and financial uncertainty for thousands of vendors and small business owners left without income.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

They just lie.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Here's the view of the DIE-IN in front of Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick's office building in PA-01, as seen from above.

We want him to VOTE NO on Trump's Billionaire Bailout Budget Bill!

Thank you to Ava Redmond for her drone work!

It is mechanically not possible to bankrupt Medicaid.

Unlike Medicare & Social Security, there’s no pot of money for the program where spending stops if it runs out. Cutting ppl off Medicaid doesn’t leave more for others.

Republicans are cutting Medicaid because they want it to cover fewer people.

What the big beautiful bill “delivers” for the American people is millions of people losing their health insurance

If folks are shocked by the gov't attack on citizens and green card holders - with $172 billion more - we ain't seen nothing yet, the worst is yet to come.

The billionaires who are against Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan can write off the entire cost of their private jets and yachts because of Trump’s Tax Plan.

Nothing like a little “creative accounting” to push a $3.3 trillion tax cut for the rich. Republicans are using an accounting gimmick to make it look like their tax plan doesn’t add to the deficit. Can’t pass it honestly? Just cook the books.
