The dems biggest fukk up was the border.

it's really messaging at that point and people who hate immigrants are going to hate them no matter what


I'd say both parties are to blame for the immigration situation, we've been locked into this situation for decades, but the majority of it really falls on Republicans who have refused to do anything because it benefits them.

for youths. The same way all western countries have.

I’ve got threads against this. But if dems had pivoted on immigration and trans issues we could have protected book bans.

Republicans made inroads because dems were defending books with degenerate bullshyt in them and now we’re out of office and can’t protect ANY of them.

What law has been passed to erase trans people from public life?

Your rights are abrogated because you’re told to use the bathroom of the sex you were born as or you can’t cheat against women sports with out of range hormone levels
Get the fukk out of here. You don't care about book bans. Admitting you'd happily throw trans people and immigrants under the bus if it meant protecting them isn't a real stance, let alone a moral stance. It is cowardice. You don't actually care about civil rights, you just want to cherry-pick which ones are convenient for you. You've already admitted this.

And fukk off. Republicans didn't make inroads because of "degenerate books." They won because Democrats let people like you set the terms of the debate instead of standing firm. Caving to bigots is how Democrats lose elections. You are not winning anything by capitulating to the MAGA misinformation machine, you are just emboldening them to demand more. Even now, they're still attacking that idiot Gavin Newsom.

As for erasing trans people from public life, Republicans have:

Banned trans healthcare for youth *and* adults in some states.
Banned trans people from using public bathrooms.
Banned trans athletes from competing at *any* level.
Passed laws trying to take trans kids away from supportive parents.
Criminalized gender-affirming care for doctors *and* parents.

That's the definition of using state power to erase a group from public life.



I’m down to argue down this trans shyt to the gills. You hoe ass nikkas can’t defend the science, history, or politics or even the laws on the books about it.

Yall can’t say dems were wrong on immigration issues AND POLICE issues then be wrong on trans issues.

YOU LOST THE POPULAR VOTE. YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY RIGHT TO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. CHANGES WILL BE MADE AND YOU WILL ADJUST. OTHERWISE, GET THE fukk OUT OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

DEMOCRATS WILL NO LONGER TOLERATE ISSUES THAT HURT US AT THE POLLS.
Listen to this idiot. :laff:

Why are you trying to act like an authority when all you're doing is arguing for Democrats to appease right-wing bigots? That didn't work in 2024, and it isn't going to work in 2026, 2028, or ever. Goofy bytch, if you really think Democrats don't need to change other than by dumping vulnerable groups and principled stances, then you're not as smart as you think.

Johns Hopkins to Cut More Than 2,000 Workers Funded by Federal Aid
The university, a leader in scientific research, has been hard hit by the Trump administration’s cuts, which will slash at least $800 million from its budget.

March 13, 2025Updated 5:29 p.m. ET

Johns Hopkins University, one of the country’s leading centers of scientific research, said on Thursday that it would eliminate more than 2,000 workers in the United States and abroad because of the Trump administration’s steep cuts, primarily to international aid programs.

The layoffs, the most in the university’s history, will involve 247 domestic workers for the university, which is based in Baltimore, and an affiliated center. Another 1,975 positions will be cut in 44 countries. They affect the university’s Bloomberg School of Public Health, its medical school and an affiliated nonprofit, Jhpiego.

Nearly half the school’s total revenue last year came from federally funded research, including $800 million from the U.S. Agency for International Development.


Johns Hopkins is one of the top university recipients of the funding that the administration is aiming to slash. And it appears to be among the most deeply affected of the major research institutions that are reeling from cuts — or the threat of cuts — to federal money that they depend on for research studies and running labs.

In a statement on Thursday calling it a “difficult day,” Johns Hopkins said it was “immensely proud” of its work on the projects, which included efforts to “care for mothers and infants, fight disease, provide clean drinking water and advance countless other critical, lifesaving efforts around the world.”

In a statement last week describing Johns Hopkins’s reliance on federal funding, Ron Daniels, the university’s president said, “We are, more than any other American university, deeply tethered to the compact between our sector and the federal government.”

Of the school’s total operating revenue in 2023, $3.8 billion, or nearly half, came federally funded research. About $800 million comes from the U.S. Agency for International Development, which the Trump administration is in the process of dismantling.

The Trump administration has said that it wants to make the government leaner and more efficient by, among other measures, dramatically cutting financial support for the program, which promotes public health and food security in low-income countries.

In ordering cutbacks in the agency, which amount to a 90 percent reduction in its operations, President Trump said that it was run by “radical left lunatics” and that is was riddled with “tremendous fraud.”

Critics of the decision, however, have said the cuts are ushering in a new era of isolationism that could prove to be dangerous. Sunil Solomon, an epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins, said the cuts would lead to a resurgence in the spread of H.I.V., the virus that causes AIDS.

“What true great nations do is help other nations, but now, it seems, we’re America first,” Dr. Solomon said.

The administration has also sought to reduce the amount of money that the National Institutes of Health sends to university for research, cuts that have been blocked for now in the courts. If they go into effect, those cuts would reduce federal payments to Johns Hopkins by more than $100 million a year, according to an analysis of university figures.

The university, which receives about $1 billion a year in N.I.H. funding and is currently running 600 clinical trials, is one of the plaintiffs in a federal lawsuit challenging those cuts.

Separately, the Trump administration also has targeted specific schools for cuts. It slashed $400 million from Columbia’s budget last week based on accusations that it had failed to protect students and faculty from antisemitism.

Johns Hopkins and Columbia are on a list of 10 schools that the administration says are being scrutinized by an executive branch antisemitism task force. The administration has threatened to reduce federal funding for schools on the list, and others, that it views as being noncompliant with federal civil rights laws.

In addition to the more than 2,000 employees whose jobs have been eliminated, the university said that an additional 78 domestic employees and 29 international would be furloughed at reduced schedules.

The cuts at Johns Hopkins involve programs funded by U.S.A.I.D. through which American universities have worked with global partners, largely to advance public health and agricultural research. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said this week that 5,200 of the agency’s 6,200 contracts had been canceled and that the remaining programs would be operated directly by the State Department, eliminating the need for U.S.A.I.D., which is under the State Department.

The reduction in the agency’s funding has resulted in program terminations at several departments at Johns Hopkins, including the medical school and the Bloomberg School of Public Health, as well as a nonprofit affiliated with the university, JHPIEGO.

Research projects that are being eliminated include international work on tuberculosis, AIDS and cervical cancer, as well as programs that directly benefit residents of Baltimore.

Dr. Solomon, the epidemiologist, runs a $50 million, six-year program to improve H.I.V. outcomes in India. He said the budget cuts in his program alone would result in layoffs of about 600 people in the United States and India. The program had led to, among other things, the diagnosis of almost 20,000 people with H.I.V. through contact tracing.

“It’s heartbreaking,” Dr. Solomon said. “Stopping funding isn’t going to kill you today, but in six months you’re going to see an impact around the world.”

Dr. Judd Walson runs the department of international health at Johns Hopkins, which oversaw a five-year, $200 million program to diagnose and control tuberculosis in 20 countries funded by U.S.A.I.D.

In Kampala, Uganda, he said, the program was the only way children were diagnosed.

“That’s just one example of how the sudden withdrawal of support is having real impacts on survival,” he said.

In addition to the loss of jobs at Johns Hopkins, he said, the loss of the programs will lead to a spike in communicable diseases worldwide.

What is essentially a shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. has had significant effects at universities around the country.

An organization called USAID StopWork, which is tracking the layoffs, said that overall, 14,000 domestic workers had lost their jobs so far, with thousands more anticipated.

Research by the Federal Reserve shows that universities serve as major economic engines in many agriculture regions, from Iowa to Florida, meaning that the impact of the administration’s cuts to science research will be felt in both red states and left-leaning communities like Baltimore.

The elimination of a $500 million agriculture project called Feed the Future, which funded agriculture labs at 19 universities in 17 states, means many of those labs must shutter.

At the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, 30 people have lost their jobs at a Feed the Future lab that worked on improving soybean cultivation in Africa, according to Peter D. Goldsmith, a professor of agriculture who ran that laboratory.

At Mississippi State University in Starkville, Miss., a fisheries laboratory was shut down, according to Sidney L. Salter, a university spokesman, who did not disclose the number of jobs lost.

Economic ripple effects of the funding cuts are expected to spread through the Baltimore area. Johns Hopkins, which enrolls about 30,000 students, is also one of Maryland’s largest private employers.

@Loose What is the point of your stance? You attack dems like crazy. You claim you're not a Republican, but all your points are rethug based. Do you have a solution? You just hate everything, which is cool. I hate everything too, but you have no point. You are promoting anarchism. Maybe that is the answer, but you have no points. You just promote nothing. Are the rethugs better than the dems in your opinion? I think you might think they may be. You have no points. You can shyt on people left and right, and that's cool, but you have no solutions. You just shyt on the left. I get your point, but you have no solutions. You are about chaos and anarchy. What is the point of you?

Yes replace the current leadership they aren't build for the moment

You are promoting anarchism. Maybe that is the answer, but you have no points.


What? I'm telling us we should not be throwing marginalized communities under the bs tf you talking about:laff: opposite of anarchism
.Are the rethugs better than the dems in your opinion? I think you might think they may be.
No that doesn't mean the current party that represents me is above criticism and change. We just went through an election of them offering nothing but conservative values, I do not want that again. How about democrats stop basing political positions based on consultants and polls? How about they actually do what we send them to Washington for in 2020? Like fixing health care , waiving student loans ,and raising mininum wage? Or they can continue losing and doing popularity poll governance

@Loose argument is that dems can lose the popular vote and electoral college and experience a right wing shift totally and not change ANYTHING.

not constituents

not values

not platforms

not issues

not content

not strategy

He doesn’t want to change ANYTHING. He doesn’t listen to polling or data or interviews or research.

Thats why I keep slapping his stupid ass with data.

Cost of undocumented healthcare in California is billions over estimates, pressuring Democrats to consider cuts
Summarize
By Taryn LunaStaff Writer March 13, 2025 11:47 AM PTMarch 12, 2025

Gov. JB Pritzker proposed a $330-million budget cut last month to scale back an expansion of healthcare coverage for undocumented adult immigrants in Illinois, where a state audit found that services for certain age groups exceeded cost estimates by more than 280%.

California soon may face the same financial pressure to reduce coverage.

California became the first state in the nation to offer healthcare to all income-eligible immigrants one year ago, which gave Gov. Gavin Newsom another liberal achievement to tout when lauding the Golden State as a national trailblazer.

But the $9.5-billion price tag of California’s program is already more than $3 billion above the budget estimate from last summer and is expected to grow even higher. In Sacramento, the governor and Democrats in the state Legislature now are under pressure to reduce coverage to bring down costs during a budget crunch.

“We should not bear these costs. Period. But especially in a budget crisis,” said Assemblymember Carl DeMaio (R-San Diego).

California’s expansion of healthcare coverage for all residents, regardless of immigration status, has made the state a ripe target for conservatives as President Trump pushes a nationalist agenda in Washington, which includes his aggressive push for deportations.

Billionaire Elon Musk, a top Trump confidant, has also weighed in, alleging to Fox that healthcare is “a mechanism by which the Democrats attract and retain illegal immigrants by essentially paying them to come here and then turning them into voters.”

“Democrats are pushing hard to maximize payments to illegals, e.g. free luxury hotels in New York and free medical care for illegals in California, as that is their current and future voter base,” Musk said on his social media platform X.

It’s illegal for undocumented immigrants to vote in California, but the Republican attacks on free state-sponsored healthcare has morphed a policy conversation about medical care into a highly politicized talking point about immigrant rights.

The potential for cuts to Medicaid, the federal government’s health insurance for low-income residents, could also leave Democrats at the state Capitol forced to decide whether they should maintain coverage for immigrants if services for legal residents must be significantly reduced.

The scale of the funding reduction to Medicaid is still unknown and it’s impossible to project the severity of the cuts for California with any certainty. Republicans in the House have suggested cutting $880 billion across the federal government, a significant portion of which would have to come from Medicaid.

“If you pull $10 billion out of California healthcare annually, that’s a lot of dough and that’s going to have very serious impacts that would ripple across every sector of the healthcare delivery system from hospitals, physicians, home care, nursing homes and to services that millions depend on,” said David Panush, a healthcare policy consultant who worked in the state Capitol for decades, about potential federal cuts.

Healthcare advocacy groups are banding together to campaign against Medicaid cuts in Washington, arguing that seniors and disabled people stand to lose the most if Medi-Cal, the state version of Medicaid, is gutted.

Absent federal cuts, California’s financial footing already was so shaky that Newsom proposed taking $7.1 billion from the state’s rainy day fund, which acts like a savings account to buffer the budget during an economic crisis, to cover the cost of state programs next year. DeMaio has argued the state wouldn’t need to break open its piggy bank if Democrats cut healthcare for undocumented immigrants.

The California Department of Finance said $8.4 billion of the funding to provide healthcare to undocumented immigrants is paid by state taxpayers through the state’s general fund. The remaining $1.1 billion pays for emergency room visits and pregnancy care, which the federal government covers under a federal law that requires hospitals to stabilize and treat uninsured patients in emergency departments.

The governor’s advisors have warned lawmakers the state has a lot to lose if federal funding is slashed by the Trump administration.

Federal funds typically make up about one-third of the state budget. Medi-Cal relies on $107.5 billion in federal funds in the current budget year, nearly two-thirds of all federal dollars received by the state. Roughly 15 million Californians, a third of the state, are on Medi-Cal and more than half of the children in California receive healthcare coverage through the program.

“The possibility of a dramatic decrease in the federal workforce, or a decrease, pause, or termination of funding, would have a detrimental impact on California’s ability to provide services that its residents rely upon, such as Medi-Cal or highway safety,” said Mary Halterman, who works for a unit within the California Department of Finance that tracks federal funding to the state, during a recent budget hearing. “California does not have sufficient resources to backfill the gaps in programs that California residents rely upon that would be created by the withdrawal or reduction of federal funds.”

Despite the current political polarization, support for state-subsidized healthcare for immigrants hasn’t always been divided by party lines in California.

In 1988, a bill authored by former state Senate Minority Leader Ken Maddy (R-Fresno) and signed by Republican Gov. George Deukmejian provided prenatal care for undocumented pregnant women and nursing home care for severely disabled immigrants.

Former Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s failed push for universal healthcare, which started in 2007, included state-subsidized coverage for all children regardless of legal residency status.

Daniel Zingale, a former advisor to Schwarzenegger who worked closely on the proposal, said Democrats didn’t like the plan because it forced Californians to buy health insurance.

“It was controversial,” Zingale said. “I remember at the time there was Republican resistance to covering anyone who was undocumented, including children, which was among the reasons that we drew Republican opposition.”

Gov. Jerry Brown, a Democrat, signed a bill that offered Medi-Cal coverage to all children under age 19 in 2015.

Newsom grew the Medi-Cal coverage pool to include all income-eligible immigrants in California under a multiyear expansion by age categories that began in 2020 and concluded in 2024.

But the program has been plagued by cost overruns since it started.

The cost estimate to provide coverage to all-income eligible undocumented immigrants was $6.4 billion in the 2024-25 state budget approved last summer, which marked an increase from earlier projections.

In February, the Newsom administration told lawmakers at a budget hearing at the state Capitol that the cost of expanding coverage to all immigrants for the current year had ballooned again from $6.4 billion to $9.5 billion. The California Department of Finance attributed the increase to “higher-than-anticipated enrollment, and higher pharmacy costs.”

On Wednesday, the finance department sent a letter informing leaders of the budget and appropriations committees in the Legislature that the state took out a $3.4-billion loan to cover Medi-Cal expenditures through the end of March. Democrats are expected to need additional funding, beyond the loan, to get through the fiscal year that ends in June.

Izzy Gardon, a spokesperson for the governor, said Newsom’s January budget proposal outlined the need for more funding to support Medi-Cal.

“Rising Medicaid costs are a national challenge, affecting both red and blue states alike,” Gardon said. “This is not unique to California.”

Pennsylvania, Colorado and Indiana are among other states that have experienced an increase in the cost of providing state-sponsored healthcare coverage.

The governor’s office attributed the cost increase in California’s program to higher-than-expected enrollment, an aging population and rising healthcare costs across Medi-Cal, not just for the undocumented community.

But that didn’t stop Republicans from criticizing Newsom for overspending.

“Newsom has literally become that degenerate brother-in-law who squanders his money and then comes back asking for a loan,” said Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher (R-Yuba City) on the social media site X.

In a statement, Senate President Pro Tem Mike McGuire (D-Healdsburg), Majority Leader Lena Gonzalez (D-Long Beach) and Budget Chair Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) said they will be working with the Assembly and Newsom’s office to “develop commonsense, responsible, and long-term solutions to deliver both a balanced budget in the months to come, and the best possible care for every Californian.”

“Here in the Golden State, we remain steadfast in our commitment to ensuring millions of Californians have the healthcare coverage they need to thrive,” they said. “That access to healthcare is being threatened by skyrocketing healthcare costs across the nation, and even more by the dangerous cuts threatened by President Trump and Congressional Republicans that will impact the lives of tens of millions across this country.”

Among the more traditional routes to cut Medi-Cal is by reducing eligibility or rates, establishing enrollment caps, or adding co-pays, though there are other options.

Carlos Alarcon, a health and public policy analyst with the California Immigrant Policy Center, said all of those options eliminate access to healthcare to immigrants that need coverage. Expanding access to care improves the entire public health system, he said, and reduces strain on emergency rooms all over the state.

“The Medi-Cal expansion is something that Gov. Newsom has really been proud of, has really campaigned on over the years, and it would be a shame to see such a triumph of the governor and of the community really be taken away from us, especially given all of the fear, all the grief, that members of our immigrant undocumented community are experiencing with the Trump administration,” Alarcon said.

No YOUR argument is that trump won on culture issues, my argument has always been he won on the first and foremost economy.

Bidens approval rating was in the 30s because of the economy, not trannys not Israel( a genocide didn'thelp) , not the border but because of his dog shyt ecomomy for anyone that isn't wealthy. Same reason trumps approval rating is tanking and the same reason republicans will get smoked in 2026. You seem to think some weirdo culture issues is why they lost and NOT cost of living which has been dog shyt since 2022
