It has to be read in its entirety to fully appreciate the unhinged "voice" that is speaking for America right now. The countries receiving this letter have got to think we're all insane for electing this man. Here's an original: bsky.app/profile/pale...

Vance should talk to the 200 undocumented Polish immigrants who helped build Trump Tower.

Don't forget Bob Onder from Missouri 3, a DOCTOR voting to take healthcare away from his own constituents. Co-chair of the House "Pro-Life" Caucus.

"Largest Rural Declines in Federal Medicaid Spending Would Occur in States That Expanded Medicaid..." Like MISSOURI. I guess it's time to find out who our Republican congresspeople actually represent. Their constituents or Trump?

Picked also because they would LOVE to have video of liberal blue-state protesters fighting against police....ready to be played over and over again on right-wing media.

How sad that constituents can't ask legitimate questions of their congressman. Is Bob Onder afraid of what we might ask? What you recorded should be heard by everyone in his district.

The call started at 5:50pm. I got an email about it at 5:46pm, as a constituent who receives Onder's email newsletter. Sounds like I didn't miss much. The last 10 minutes I caught were bad enough.

How do you define moderate policies? Honest question. Because it seems like many blue voters may have different ideas on what it means.

Turns out voters in a very blue city wanted to hear less about things like reparations panels and having social workers replace cops and more about making the community safer and more livable.

St Louis city politics may help to explain. The progressive mayor just lost her job to a more moderate Democrat in a landslide, primarily because she focused heavily on progressive causes instead of managing basic services like trash pick-up & snow removal. And was seen by some as anti-police.

Kash really needs to up his cosplay game. Maybe call Kristi Noem for tips. If he's gonna pretend that he's qualified for a super serious important job, he should give us the full show with costume changes. Duh.

Besides the fact that this is illegal, does Trump really want to crater his support among women and be the guy who kills Hallmark movies? They're almost all made in Canada.

And to think, he could've filled 30,000 plastic eggs with tacky gold lapel pins in the shape of his head. Missed opportunity. The kid photos would've been classic.

Serious question: Would it be possible to purchase his freedom from El Salvador and then have another country (like Canada) take him in for asylum? I'm sure that money could be crowd-funded very quickly.

Speaking of schools, did you see the good news out of RED St Charles County? All of the conservative school board candidates LOST, in both the Wentzville and Francis Howell school districts πŸ˜ƒ

Cory Booker stood up as an American hero for more than 24 hours. Chuck Schumer showed up near the very end and tried to make himself relevant. I think most of us could see who the true leader and fighter was.

I've basically provided more documentation to enter a federal building than most of the DOGE kids. But still not good enough to vote. Insane.

I got a Real ID drivers license this week, as required by federal law to fly on US airplanes and enter federal buildings. I had to bring my marriage certificate to show my name change compared to my birth certificate. But now this ID isn't good enough for voting??

Don't miss this creepy AF video that Bob Onder just posted about children's books. Yikes. These people are sick.

Sadly I'm a constituent of Onder. All of his polls are this dumb and leading. I keep waiting for "Do you think President Trump's tax cuts should be approved so kittens don't stop being cute?"

"Musk, according to one person familiar with the arrangements, is receiving the briefing because he asked for one."

Is this part of the VIP package when you buy a US president? 😳

It's like "Take a Mannequin to Work" Day. At the bargain price of $246,000 a year....plus mannequin benefits & travel costs.... paid by American taxpayers.
