In the past 18 hours, Acyn with Meidas was up all night. He posted 32 clips of Democrats opposing the budget on the floor, 24 clips of Dems in the Rules Committee, and 18 clips of interviews we did of Dems off the floor. We also spotlighted many Dems who never get media airtime.

Trump said during the campaign that he had a plan to end the war in Ukraine, said he couldn’t tell anyone what it was because then it wouldn’t work, & said that plan would be executed within 24 hours of taking office. What was the plan? Why didn’t it happen? What’s the plan now?

It seems like the head of the Department of Homeland Security should know what habeas corpus is. Especially since it is a pillar of the Constitution, the WH Policy Director has said publicly that they may suspend it, and DHS will have to enforce that. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Not sure anyone saw, but the almost 80-year-old flaccid fascist felon, as fit as a made in China fiddle, also stumbled off the helicopter the other day. Then this happened today.

🧡on the GOP #MedicaidMassacre

This bill will hurt tens of millions of people. Seniors and folks in rural America will be the hardest hit. But we will all suffer.

Because I have a background in healthcare, I though it important to lay out the real stakes for this cowardly act by Trump and the GOP.

Hearing Tulsi Gabbard say James Comey should be arrested for inciting violence is quite rich considering she is a mouthpiece for a criminal who incited a violent insurrection and who continues to commit impeachable or treasonous crimes against this country and its citizenry on a daily basis.

Horrifying. At least at first glance, it looks like the Trump administration is creating a class of American citizens who will be refugees with a "well-founded fear of persecution" from their own government and who need to seek asylum abroad.

I will never forget that the week Qatar decided to bribe the president of the United States with a plane, CNN decided to focus on the age and health of an ex-president.

Shame.

That's too bad. After all UWF & Pensacola community have been thru to combat new trustee appointees, DeSantis keeps appointing them & trying to force change. Hate to see what they have in store for what by all accounts has been a thriving university on the rise.

Every time a new scandal is reported from the Trump admin, which is every few hours, their first reaction is to call the story fake news, their second reaction is to vow to hunt down and jail the leakers, and their third reaction is to threaten the media company who published it.

Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

Well, well, well. The Acting FEMA Administrator said eliminating FEMA wasn’t in the best interest of the American people β€” and guess what?!?! They FIRED him. I guess that’s what happens when you stand up to your power-hungry β€œboss”.
