Trump is destroying the White House and the country at the same time. And the damn Republicans in Congress are letting him.

Trump doesn't know one end of a lawn mower from the other, and he has never mowed a lawn or performed any kind of manual labor his entire lifetime. He is the epitome of White Privilege.

BREAKING: Democrat Eric Gisler has won the Georgia HD 121 special election in a stunning upset of the GOP, flipping a seat Blue that voted for Trump by 12 points in 2024.

Trump has repeatedly put farmers out of business. Has driven up their costs for everything, including labor. Has them begging him for welfare every year. Tells them he knows more about their business than they do. Lies to them. And they still vote Republican and send him money.

There's no evidence Trump has ever driven a damn car.

He has never mowed a lawn.

He has never shoveled a walk.

He has never changed a lightbulb.

He has never washed dishes.

He has said he never ever changed a diaper and he has four children.

Trump is being brainwashed and manipulated on many fronts by unelected neo-Nazi, racist, and xenophobic advisors in the White House. He is not just a lame duck; he is lame brained. And Congress fiddles while America burns.

Covid vaccines safe four years on, first long-term study suggests Covid vaccines safe four years on, first long-term study suggests Getting the Pfizer or Moderna Covid vaccine in 2021 did not increase overall risk of death in the next four years compared

Yet another study (French) shows that Pfizer/Moderna vaccines are safe and save lives.
A study of 28 mil people over 4 yrs shows that 75% of vaccinated people had a lower risk of dying from severe Covid.
