"Trump is not ordering the military into American cities to stop violence, He wants to provoke a reaction. It is on us to deny what he wants. We must continue to resist peacefully and continue to use the power of the courts and the law to address his unlawful acts. We will prevail in the end."

Fox News Host Bizarrely Declares AOC Wants to Sleep With Stephen Miller Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld couldn’t help but make uncomfortable comments while discussing AOC’s digs at Stephen Miller.

I guess Jesse & Gregge have some feelings for Pee Wee German.

500 hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics are at risk of closing because of the Trump-Republican big, ugly bill. Many are in rural areas.

Meanwhile, Republican-held US House districts and states Trump won in 2024 rely more on ACA coverage.

They're selling out their own voters.

Rep. Stansbury: there is nobody here in the House
YouTube video by Rep. Melanie Stansbury Rep. Stansbury: there is nobody here in the House

It’s Tuesday afternoon, around 4 pm – and there is literally no one here in the House of Representatives. Not a soul on what should be a busy day.

And, why? Because the GOP has shut it down. Literally.

Wherever I go, I meet Virginians who tell me they’re concerned about costs β€” from healthcare, to housing, to energy.

They want their next Governor to focus on affordability. That’s why lowering costs is my #1 priority.

Government shutdowns reflect a lack of leadership, a failure by the president. ~ Donald Trump, 2013.

Trump says he'd be "open" to discussions about "health care", but the government shutdown has to end "first!".

You know, it's one of those "If you put down your gun first, I promise not to shoot you in return - trust me, bro!" type of situations.

You don't have to post selfies, or talk about where you live, what you're doing, what you're buying.
You don't have to use fingerprints, face ID, & ring cameras.
You don't have to use addictive platforms that fill your feed with ads.

They take so much from us. Don't give them more.

My guess is that this administration wants to know if your ancestors were here for the Civil War AND, if so, which side they fought on. If they fought for the Union the likely claim will be that you’ve have woke DNA and should deported. Sounds stupid? Not currently.
