Trump Funding Cuts Endanger Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Survivors

This essay is part of a series by Lawyers Defending American Democracy where we demonstrate the link between the administration’s sweeping executive actions and their roots in the authoritarian blueprint, Project 2025, and show how these actions harm individuals and families throughout the...

Call it the "Virginia Giuffre Memorial policy."
 
No no no, you guys have it wrong.

Women are important, for making babies. Their actual health or welfare, nope. And those babies are super important to them, "God's little gift" and all, until they are born, then not so much.
 

Further evidence that MAGA condones rape and sexual assault.

Your source says, "Even before this administration’s draconian cuts, the hotline has been woefully underfunded, with resources to answer only about half of its calls and messages." And yet you are eager to blame "cuts" in the Trump budget for causing a lack of help for victims of abuse.

Why aren't you blaming the Biden administration for conditions that existed, "Even before this administration’s draconian cuts,?"
 
The GOP controlled the HOR in 2024.

Perhaps because some folks don't live their lives through the lens of partisanship.
 

Gotta pay for that deficit-ballooning Big Ugly Bill somehow.

Oh, in that case, by all means, carry on!

I just hopped in to bemoan the partisanship that's apparent in the "but Biden" deflections to seemingly every bad thing that Trump does.

"Trump did this stupid shit."
"Yeah but where were you when Biden did stupid shit."

Being partisan like that is just not a great way to go about it. In the meantime, stupid shit is happening to the country and they have us attacking each other instead. Not everyone is just attacking Trump because of the R. Sometimes Trump actually does objectively stupid shit.
 
MAGA does not care as long as the 1%ers get another massive tax break.

Same as you. You'd either vote for the Democrats or their Republicans only two options should really have unless you vote for a third party and they would be the same.

It has been like this since Mesopotamia.

It's not Democrats making huge cuts to social programs and social safety nets in order to feed the 1%ers.
That is Republicans.
This old MAGA meme that 'both sides do it' lacks any punch in the current regime.

Squeezing money out of people it doesn't really matter which way you do it.

It's not a mega mean it's been the case since Mesopotamia. The Democrats just buy you off with cheap trinkets so you don't care.

It's a MAGA meme when "both sides" involves Trump being one of those sides. Because it's always like comparing a sink with a toilet.

The President signs bills into law. The President in 2024 was Joseph Robinette Biden.

The President can only sign into law bills which have passed in Congress, I thought you would know that.
 
Rather pathetic and transparent BS for more Republican destruction of the poor and middle class.

Well when the other party does it and you vote for them it's the same thing. It's hypocritical to criticize what you do when other people do it.

That's why 98% of this stuff just doesn't affect anybody that's because it's coming from people who are guilty of it themselves.

It's not because people that think differently than you have worms in their brain or whatever other crap. It's because you're the same.

Well the toilet that kicks illegal aliens out of someone that gets my vote. The one that steals less money from me through taxes they get my vote I don't care who else they're stealing it from or if they're going into debt that's a spending issue I can't do anything about that.
