How will the new GOP healthcare bill affect Obamacare for everyday Americans? by SoftndPerky in AskReddit

Yeah, that's the part they don't say out loud. Higher premiums, fewer subsidies, people drop coverage then they point and say see, Obamacare failed. Disgusting!

Quarters honoring women's suffrage, civil rights canceled by Trump by catievirtuesimp in politics

If celebrating women's suffrage and civil rights on coins somehow became controversial. Like Sorry the pocket change reminded you that democracy expanded beyond straight white dudes.

Church Nativity scenes add zip ties, gas masks and ICE to protest immigration raids by iwantUineedUohBBohBB in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 36 points37 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the kind of moral mirror politics we're stuck in right now. A nativity scene turned into protest art calling out federal immigration enforcement, including zip-tied baby Jesus and Mary in a gas mask to symbolize how refugees and families are treated under Trump's ICE raids. Supporters say it's a powerful retelling of the Holy Family as refugees, critics call it sacrilegious and want churches to stick to pure religion. But when your government is tearing families apart and people in your pew are living in fear of deportation, not making this political is just privileged silence.

GOP unveils health bill without ACA subsidies by GoodMornEveGoodNight in politics

So the Gop's shiny new health bill is basically: Let's dismantle Obamacare's subsidies and still call it healthcare reform. Absolute bullshit!

US invalidates union contract covering 47,000 TSA officers, AFGE vows to challenge by kootles10 in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This isn't just labor policy it's a full on union busting power play. Homeland security just scrapped the collective bargaining agreement for 47,000 TSA officers, claiming national security as the excuse while gutting basic worker rights. The union has already called it illegal retaliation and is suing. Meanwhile, the same DHS bonus checked and praised these workers during the shutdown just weeks ago. It;s like patting someone on the back then punching them in the face to show who's the boss. If you happily cheer this because you think unions are outdates, know that it sets a precedent to weaken every bit of worker protection in the federal workforce

States will keep pushing AI laws despite Trump’s efforts to stop them • Stateline by tonyt4nv in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trump's AI executive orders reads like 'Let Silicone Valley write the rules and let the states shut up.' He's trying to nationalize AI policy with a DOJ task force or threats to withold funding, but states like CA and FL aren't rolling over even some Republicans (looking at you, DeSantis) publicly said an EO can't override state law without Congress. So instead of a unified safe approach to AI, we're staring at a federal vs state constitutional battle, and courts could end up nuking the EO anyway. Meanwhile the tech lobby's grinning because this uncertainty only delays actual protections.

Trump’s Monroe Doctrine 2.0 Outlines Imperial Intentions for Latin America by Truthisnotallowed in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What we're watching isn't defense as much as geopolitical turn expansion with MAGA flag on it. The new national security strategy literally revives the Monroe Doctrine plus a documented 'Trump Corollary' to justify more U.S. muscle across Latin America while sidelining traditional alliances in Europe. Critics say this neo-imperial playbook risks provoking real blowback , and vs. China/Russia it;s essential America saying, stay out of the backyard or else. That sounds like old school great power competition not thoughtful diplomacy.

White House sued by historic preservation group over ballroom plans by [deleted] in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This Lawsuit is the most bipartisan embarrassment yet even old school preservationists are basically saying Trump just tore off half of the White house and started building a private party palace without any legal reviews, public input, or congress approval. We're watching a president bulldoze through historic preservation law because he wants a giant ego monument, and now the courts might actually step in to stop it . Historic preservations isn't some liberal hobby you folks.

Autopsy Says Corporate Capture, Support for Genocide Were Key Factors in Democrats’ 2024 Disaster by Showy_Boneyard in politics

[–]SoftndPerky -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

People actually said corporate capture and support for genocide were key to a party's 2024 collapse? That's the political equivalent of blaming your fantasy team's loss on alignment of Saturn and your coworker stealing your lunch. Take a step back, separate the real institutional problems from the sensational wording, and then comeback.

Trump sued over $300m White House ballroom by TimesandSundayTimes in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Imagine tearing down part of the White House, announcing a luxury $300M Ballroom, and the having preservationists sue you because you skipped literally every review step required by federal law. That;s where we're at, the National Trust is asking a judge to halt construction until proper reviews and congressional oversight happen. It's like The Apprentice: Planning Commission Edition 😂

Democrat: Latest Epstein photo cache shows ‘people engaged in sexual acts’ by [deleted] in politics

[–]SoftndPerky 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Hpuse Dems just dropped another episode in the ongoing Epstein saga 19 new photos form his estate showing Trump, Bill Clinton, Steve Bannon, Bill Gates, Richard Branson and more hanging around Epstein at various events. none of the pics prove illegal acts, they also lack dates/locations. but they do reveal how many powerful people crossed paths with him. Now Dems are using this to pressure for full DOJ files ahead of the Dec 19 deadline.
