He keeps talking about how there's a tiger, an elephant and a giraffe in an early question. The problem is that in the sample test I've seen, that's a lion, not a tiger. Did he screw up on the first question?

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

The first time the Confederate flag ever paraded through the US Capitol was on January 6, 2021.

The first time the White House was damaged in over 200 years since the US rebuilt in the 1820s after the British burned it in the war of 1812 was mid October, 2025.

He hates American values and principles. He hates democracy. He despises the Constitution and its constraints. He hates most Americans. All he desires is money, power and staying out of jail. Am I missing something?

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

Federal immigration officers wear masks, no name tags β€” now some drive cars without license plates The Sun-Times has documented four unmarked cars carrying federal officers without required plates, offering another way to shield their identities. Federal officials say they’re meeting regulations.

Illinois law requires all registered vehicles to display front and back license plates, without exception. But to evade accountability, masked federal immigration agents are driving around in unmarked cars without plates.

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

CNN: β€œAn older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 β€” 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

The wealth of the richest 1% in America just hit a record $52 trillion. These are the people getting huge tax cuts β€” paid for by cuts to health care for millions of Americans. Every lie Trump and Republicans are telling right now about the shutdown is meant to distract you from this.

This is due to a law signed by Ronald Reagan and has nothing to do with this shutdown fight.

But consider this...

Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion β€” just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.

Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

My god.

β€œWatson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Pentagon plan would create military β€˜reaction force’ for civil unrest Documents reviewed by The Post detail a new National Guard mission that, if adopted, would require hundreds of troops to be ready around-the-clock.

Trump is planning a rapid response military force to deploy domestically against Americans to crush their First Amendment right to protest.

Suppression of civil liberties, politicization of the military, and a disregard for laws are hallmarks of authoritarianism.

Pay attention.

It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.πŸ‘‡

Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

β€˜Parishioners excused.’

That’s how bad it is. A Catholic bishop lifted the obligation to attend Mass because ICE might raid the church.

Mass isn’t required β€œif a member of the faithful has a genuine fear of immigration enforcement actions.”

The feds should be ashamed. Terrorizing the faithful.

Yes; to say he's not my favorite person is an understatement. Heidi Hall is running against him in 2026 (I've seen nothing about a contested primary), and I'll work for her if she's the candidate.

Just called my congressman, Kevin Kiley, and urged him to change his "yes" vote to a "no" in order to preserve Medicaid for some 17 million people. Got voicemail, of course, but maybe there's someone there still counting phone calls.

This is Nick Begich (R-Alaska). If he votes for the bill,
37,000 of his constituents lose access to their healthcare.
27,000 of his constituents lose access to their food assistance.
578 energy jobs in his district will disappear.
