Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed

Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

With all the dismantling of our government agencies I feel we are leaving ourselves open to attack. Cyber or otherwise. ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
It feels like we are very vulnerable at the present moment.

Reflecting on my younger self and thinking how life felt so much less heavy. How in the world did we re-elect the sociopath to run our country? Iโ€™m so utterly disgusted by his horrible agenda. Praying we donโ€™t lose our democracy entirely to the Christian nationalist theocracy ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ™

Pete Hegseth admitted to the Senate that he paid $50,000 (!!!) to silence a "Jane Doe" who accused him of rape.

But at his hearing last week, he said he was โ€œfalsely accused."

More questions than answers. We can't rush his vote and trust him with our national security.

I wrote a book about my time in Christian Nationalism: GOP campaigns, America Say Jesus bus tour, working at CBN/700 Club etc..

Christian nationalism is a perversion of the faith & the constitution. Learn more about how I left it behind and why America should too in Star-Spangled Jesus:
