Trump still hasn’t released the September jobs report, but we can guess where he wants the jobs—back in the mines 🫠

Day 7 of Trump’s shutdown: Federal paychecks halted, agencies frozen, and chaos on repeat.

The only thing still running is his mouth.

Trump wants us hooked on fossil fuels so he can keep our bills high, our lights dim, and his billionaire friends’ wallets full.

He’s killing projects that would’ve lowered costs and created jobs so he can keep raising energy prices instead.

📣It was Project 2025 all along.

A spiteful leader doesn’t lead—they endanger.

And he’s getting joy out of making life worse for Americans at the same time.

🗣️ Republicans shut down the government instead of working with Democrats to lower costs for Americans 🗣️

Hundreds of thousands furloughed. Millions are forced to work without pay. Many showing up to work just to get surprise pink slips.

Trump’s shutdown is wrecking the services families rely on so he can play politics than keep our country running.

Us watching Trump and Republicans blame the shutdown on everyone but themselves.

The consequences of their actions won't hit them and their billionaire donors, they'll hit working families trying to make ends meet.

Never forget: Trump and the GOP shut down the government instead of helping Americans with soaring costs they caused.

At least state leaders know how important clean energy is ⚡

Flood insurance lapses, FEMA runs dry, communities left exposed—all because Trump and Republicans would rather shut down the government than do their jobs.

Trump.

Trump's admin is spending millions to prop up coal, the power source of the 1800s. Meanwhile, he's removing cleaner, cheaper innovations in clean energy from the grid that save Americans money.
