Billionaire Trump Gives Deranged Lecture as Oil Prices Explode The president claimed it’s a β€œvery small price to pay” for his war.

Have to love how much he railed against gas prices under Biden. And how he has said only he could bring them down. #TrumpsGasProblem

Gotta love that for months he was talking about how only he could bring gas prices down and he has managed to do that, unlike Biden (!), only Trump (!) and now "meh, short term pain, long term gain. Let’s go bomb Iran!"

EIGHT DOLLARS A GALLON.
Downtown Los Angeles.
Today.
Trump promised to lower gas prices on Day 1. Instead he started a war with Iran and gas in LA just topped $8.
This is sticker shock. This is his fault.

Billionaires Are Swaying Elections in All Corners of America

Citizens United was one of the worst SCOTUS decisions in our lifetimes. Along with Dobbs and giving Trump immunity.

Of course this was going to happen:

On this International Women's Day, I want to honor some of the bravest women in the world:
The victims of child sex abuse who spoke out against very powerful men like Jeffrey #Epstein, Donald Trump, Bill Gates, Prince Andrew & a huge pedophile ring.
Your strength is amazing!

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

I love this. I hope he is forever called "Epstein's friend" around the world. Our DOJ may try to erase it all but the world knows and has seen the evidence.

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

WH is operating from more and more of a fictional place because they are losing touch with reality. Jobs numbers keep sliding. He lost tariff ruling in SCOTUS. He is talking about taking over any country he wants. Delusions are growing. He will come for your job too. #TrumpsJobsSlump

Trump's War If Trump campaigned as a President of peace, he has governed as the opposite

Just madness. 10 years later the headlines won't talk about his sociopathy. Of course he's governed the opposite way.
