What Fundamental FREEDOMS Do We Support?

The SaddleBrooke Democratic Club (SBDC) is an organization within our 55+ community below Southern Arizona’s beautiful Santa Catalina Mountain range just outside of Tucson.
Our organization is open to anyone who supports the fundamental freedoms due to all Arizona residents. We strive to educate voters and elect candidates who stand up for freedom through our monthly meetings, bi-annual social events, and ongoing activities.
Welcome to the SaddleBrooke, Arizona Democratic Club

OUTRAGES OF THE WEEK:
What's goin' on, people? This never gets old!
The Argentine Peso continues to DROP today by 10 percent,
so the $40 Billion of your money sent to Argentina by Trump
has FAILED! The overnight interest rate in Buenos Aires is now 157%.
Israel is voting now to ANNEX Gaza! Over 50 Gazans have been killed
since the great "Ceasefire." Way to go Trump!
Former US Rep. George Santos was released from prison, after
President Trump commuted his seven-year sentence for wire fraud and identity theft. He had served just under three months. Grifters are gonna grift.
Trump is suing his OWN Department of Justice for $230 Million to pay him personally for … whatever… justified pain and suffering?… from the many criminal cases brought rightfully against him by the once non-political DOJ. He wants $75 Million alone for the Mar-a-Lago raid that found secret documents in his golden bathroom.
Two Gulfstream G700 jets for Christie Noem for $172 Million…. Aircraft preferred by billionaires.
Total US Federal spending is up 7% in 2025 over 2024. So much for Belt-Tightening Trumpistas.
Colorado Insurance Commissioner estimates the state's Marketplace premiums will go up soon by an average of 160% with some seeing increases of $22,000 a year. That's not the only state.
Trump's net approval rating on the economy is down to -19%, the worst ever in either of his glorious terms.
Children's cancer research is being cut, women's and children's food assistance is being cut, "administration officials have been gutting services that keep children alive and well. These include programs that feed kids, teach them the alphabet, provide them medical care, guarantee their rights and shield them from abuse." - WAPO
Meanwhile, at the White House, the demolition of the East Wing, and democracy in general, continues unabated.
Have a Good Week!

Ciscomani voted for the "Big, Beautiful Bill" which rewards the ultra-wealthy while cruelly punishing the poor. This should cost him his seat next year, DON'T YOU THINK? TAKE ACTION !
