I am unable to "get angry" over what happened today, because I've "been angry" since January 20th.

I'm guessing the people who are not angry are:

1). The voters who are like the Republicans that french kissed Trump's ass and signed it without reading it

2). The Americans who take it for granted when they just go to their doctor when they need to, and have no idea that things are going to dramatically change

3). The MAGAts who couldn't find their own assholes with a flashlight, a mirror, a funnel, and a Sherpa, who live only to praise Trump and own the libs and see this as one more situation where they think that only libs will get hurt

I've been pissed off since NOVEMBER.

I saw this coming. I saw the Stephen Miller bullshit coming. There is literally nothing happening right now that was not promised / threatened.

So yeah, it pissed me off when I saw the headline. And preparing for it for the last two hundred and forty fucking days didn't make it any better. And, because I expected this EXACT result, it didn't make it any worse.

Trying to think of next steps that Republicans cannot sabotage. They clearly do not see pissed off Americans as any kind of deterrent.

Let's hope we can make them feel the truth of FAFO.

Today, the fucking assholes celebrated like they won the World Series. May each and every single one of them fucking rot in the absolute fucking hottest of hells. They sold this country out so they can keep their precious power and god emperor king gets everything he wants. Fuck all of them.

If today wasn't a wake-up call...between that bill and "Alligator Alcatraz"...I don't know what it's going to take. What's left? Doing the same to Social Security and Medicare that they did to Medicaid? Deporting American citizens? Arresting and imprisoning journalists? What will it take?
