Henderson County NC Democratic Party

😡😡😡😡

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?

This looks like a great program with a Hendersonville connection!

Yes, this IS pure evil.

Europe is holding its Epstein creeps accountable. Why can’t we? | Will Bunch Europeans are pushing to hold Jeffrey Epstein's creepy pals, including billionaires like Elon Musk, accountable. The U.S.? Not so much.

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Johnson says no to plaque honoring police officers for Jan. 6 House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office says the legally required plaque to honor police officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is “not implementable”

Mike Johnson’s office says the legally required plaque to honor police officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is “not implementable” and will NOT be hung — despite being mandated by law.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

Frost: If you want to protect children, why don't you ban assault weapons instead of health care?

❌ Presided over the longest government shutdown in history
🚨 Failed to act after Western Maryland was hit by a devastating storm.

Our taxes paid for this

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. Epstein haunts him. Republicans are beginning to revolt against him.

He's not all powerful.

A tyrant can exercise tyranny only insofar as the objects of his tyranny continue to allow it.

Remember this.

Our schools are falling behind because Republicans refuse to fund our schools. The solution is simple. FUND LEANDRO NOW! 🚨

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.

This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

People say DOGE "failed", but to be fair DOGE successfully stole every American taxpayers data & personal information & had access to pretty much EVERY government system and likely shared that data with foreign entities. IDK that I'd say failed exactly, being they did everything that was intended.

“ICE is just targeting brown people who have an accent, snatching people out of their cars”

Racial profiling is all they do

On the other hand, the blatant abuse of power can energize voters as well
