You just answered your own question. Nutty and unattractive are two key components of the holy Trump trinity. The third would be incompetence.

How many people suggested that you โ€œcalm down,โ€ or were overreacting? ๐Ÿ˜–

All the state-sponsored terrorism is being brought you byโ€ฆour tax dollars.

We are paying for our cities and towns being attacked by thugs cosplaying as military members.

Why are we paying federal taxes?

Trump's invasion This weekend marked a major escalation of his campaign of terror.

"Simply put, one state cannot invade another. This is something so central to American democracy that you donโ€™t even need some sort of legal explanation as to the underpinnings."

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

Iโ€™m horrified by Trumpโ€™s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. Weโ€™re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If youโ€™re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

People arent only being disappeared from the streets, churches, schools, hospitals & jobs now they're being disappeared in the middle of the night FROM THEIR OWN BEDS IN VIOLATION OF THE 4TH AMENDMENT.
I want this revolution to be bloodless, but when they start disappearing us from our houses-

ICE agents arrest Alderperson Jessie L. Fuentes (26th Ward of Chicago city council) after she questions them on whether they have a signed judicial warrant to arrest a person at Humboldt Park Hospital.

โ€œHe has Constitutional rights.โ€

โ€œNo.โ€

ICEโ€™s exact mindset: no one is allowed any rights now.

My husband was detained by ICE today

Juan Muรฑoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away

I have had zero contact or updates since

I have a couple of acquaintances who still seem to be buying this absolute garbage. Proving once again that the Flavor-Aid was orange.

Interesting theory! I think long term drug use can also cause renal issues? You might be on to something!

Transfusions only take a couple of hours though. (I only know this because my 90 yo uncle gets, on average, 2 each week for intractable anemia. This week he had 3. ๐Ÿ˜“)

I was wondering about paracentesis for congestive heart failure - but even that just takes a few hours.

As a nice gesture, we should start a GoFundMe to fix whatever weird stuff is going on with his penis. Must be tough for him.

Now imagine the impacts on small businesses. The tariffs will decimate them.

In honor of #toebeantuesday, and also because I desperately need a palate cleanser today and feel like you might, too, I present Kevin Bacon and her many toes. #polydactyl #footloose #catsky

Call Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, and ask him why he's protecting pedofiles and childhood sex traffickers.

His official DC numbers are: (202) 225-4000 and (202) 225-2777

Bossier City office: (318) 840-0309
DeRidder office: (337) 226-6385
Leesville office: (337) 423-4232

Be relentless.
