REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Class war. Wage gap. Oligarchy

Disgraceful priorities and cruelty

It's about greed, politics and intentional cruelty and inhumanity

A clear and present danger to fair and free elections and a citizen right to vote

It's all about cruelty, politics, their priorities, lack of humaneness,

Why do so many keep voting against their own best interests?

SNAP’s Contingency Reserve Is Available for Regular SNAP Benefits, as USDA and OMB Have Ruled in Past The Administration must use all available options to fund November benefits for the 1 in 8 people in the U.S. who need SNAP to afford their grocery bill.

NO.. Despite Trump’s claims, precedent indicates contingency reserve is available and should be used come November 1st. This is about politics, cruelty, power and more lies

Less than before Trump’s moronic tariffs and trade war. Typical Trump- create the chaos and then take cred6for when it eventually is resolved, usually on worse terms than the original

What could possibly go wrong?

Hypocrisy and sycophant cynicism

The reality

US National debt just grew by $1 trillion in last 70 days. With all the DOGE cuts and firings, and the supposed huge tariffs related revenues, it's clear we are being conned and our priorities and planning are distorted. #WakeUpAmerica #DontBeFooledAgain #HoldTrumpAccountable

Facts matter

Unfit and dangerous. A clear and present danger to democracy and our nation

It's about the cruelty

Trump lies constantly
He never lets real facts get in the way of his preferred narrative

Hypocritical cruelty

BUTTIGIEG: How in the world could you be focused on building a new ballroom— literally a gilded ballroom for fancy parties, for your rich friends at the exact moment when working Americans, actually disproportionately working Americans who voted for you are getting screwed by your health care policy, and you don't seem to be interested in helping them. REPORTER: I mean, he would say, this is it's for the American people, and it's the people's house. And it's good to be able to have a sort of space. BUTTIGIEG: And most of the people who are getting these letters about their health care premiums are never going to be invited to dinner at the white house. He's not there for them. - Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg THE RESISTANCE

Trump's moronic tariffs and trade war are regressive inflationary taxes

Trump is a clear and present danger

Too Much Divisive Vitriol, Empty Rhetoric, Name-Calling, & Closed-Minded Misuse Of The Blame Game… Repeatedly, we keep witnessing both sides of the political spectrum, seemingly unwilling to even-consider trying to talk to each other…

We can and must do better. The nation and its citizens deserve better representation, and the people must start listening to each other with an open mind. No more name calling and vitriol
