We are no longer a country that supports science now. Republicans are screwing up big-time.

No Kristi, you are making ICE the Halloween bogeymen, the Halloween monsters, the terrorists that every child fears when they have nightmares.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Club for Growth needs a new President. What idiocy is he pushing here? I doubt he would say employers got a good deal during covid but now it's business as usual so I should pay my employees more...

Why don't the Republicans alleviate the suffering of Americans instead of using taxpayer $$ for $1 billion to retrofit a "gift" jet, $309 million for a ballroom no one wants or needs, a 40 billion bailout gift to Argentina because a few of Bessents's friends made bad investments there??

This is nowhere close to being true.

Two @ij.org clients are citizens who were arrested & @propublica.org found 168 more.

Plus, we have witness statements from others who--like most of the citizens caught up by Noem's tactics--didn't have their arrests recorded so they didn't make the news.

Let people see Jack Smith for who he is and not the characters depicted by Trump and others.

Even in the movies, scenes of the White House getting blown up by invading aliens or terrorists feel emotionally unsettling.

It’s the People’s House after all.

So imagine having to witness its destruction in real life…and the culprit is the President.

Such destructive malice. Not following protocol, no need for a vanity ballroom. Inflation up, unemployment up, tariffs destroying farmers & ranchers profit, grocery prices sky high, unemployment rising, measles outbreaks highest in decades. Trump & his yes men & women are destroying everything.

The biggest renovation of the White House -- the so-called Truman Reconstruction of 1949-1952 -- came about only because the building was in such a state of disrepair that inspectors decided it was unsafe for occupancy.

Not because the president just decided he needed a big fancy ballroom.

He’s spending millions for a ballroom while American soldiers go without pay…

So, which media outlet is digging into the White House general contractor's background and supply chains?

I was so upset when I saw & read the WAPO article. Destroying the East Wing ( they lied & said it wouldn't happen). And I would think it is not really needed. No president has ever asked for this. After the Rose Garden desecration it is just a bad feeling all around.

I stand corrected. The excesses of she and her husband King Louis XV led to the French Revolution. A food shortage, high taxes & wealth inequity contributed. There are parallels to our own country.

Trump must be a reincarnation of Marie Antoinette, "Let them eat cake". He is building a 250 million$$ ballroom for a vanity project while he says our country has no money for WIC, Meals on Wheels or Special Education. Make no mistake, Trump's priorities are not the American people.

I will add my dad got a job in Huntsville AL in the 50s and Mom (2 yrs of college) was really worried she wouldn't pass the literacy test for voting there because "they had a lot of trick questions" and then started talking about the expense of poll taxes.

My WWII dad from SD and Southern ( MS) mom taught us that all people bleed the same color and not to think we were better than anybody else. They supported the 1964 Civil Rights Bill.
I wish they had interviews from other parts of the country.

A video posted by our President, depicting our President, wearing a king crown, bombing liquid crap on American citizens?! It shows his full contempt for all American citizens and that he is truly a vile person to think this was an appropriate video. He is not the person to be leading our country.

So in western Alaska, thousands of people are homeless due to flooding rains, one person is dead & two people are missing. But yet, the regime hasn't said a word, no thoughts or prayers, nothing.
Once again, they could care less about Americans, it's about enriching themselves through GREED.

Irony is FOX News mocking boomers at the NO KINGS Marches for being chubby, when we are all around the same age as our very own chubby Pres Trump who they revere.

Children are dying because Trump gutted USAID and cut lifesaving foreign aid β€” even though it took up less than 1% of the U.S. budget.

Meanwhile, he's preparing to dole out $40 billion to prop up Argentina's failing economy, all to help out his authoritarian pal.

Priorities.

This can’t be said often enough: Trump is selling out his most loyal voting block while bailing out somebody else’s.

πŸ“Keep an eye on this: Trump’s intentionally sabotaging U.S. farmers. His billionaire buddies will benefit by acquiring their land on the cheap.

Trump pardoned all the convicted & sentenced Jan 6 criminals. I bet he used an auto pen for that too. What nonsense Johnson is spouting.
