I start laughing at your first word. Melania. You know it’s going to get ridiculous after that.

We needed to feed the kids. Hanging tough is good but punishing innocent children, adding this stress to the poor over the holidays would be a mistake on every level. Including politically.
We are the good guys. Remember?
We have gained such support and will fight another day. And win.

The shutdown also threatens the $4.1 billion Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) that helps families cover the cost of utilities or heating states expected to have funding for this winter. Almost 6 million households use the program, and as cold sets in it is not funded.

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

And so it begins. Or continues. Bannon shows up to assure us trump will have a 3rd term. β€œThere is a plan”.
Starting to normalize the unthinkable. Pay attention. This is what the enemy is good at.

Now we are up to $40 billion for Argentina. Can anyone stop Bessent from unilaterally sending unlimited amounts of our money to South America? And Republicans won’t even negotiate with the Democrats on health care for Americans. Where is Congress?

I would suggest,no believe,that most of the No Kings protesters are 50+ years old. We grew up under the Constitution. We believe in laws that have been in place all of our lives based on values we believe in.

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

Bondi is showing signs of wear and tear. Aging fast.
It’s tough to be under the control of an abusive man and maintain her throughly obnoxious personna.
Got a lot to learn little girl. You can’t win. You can never do enough for him. He is swallowing you.

Sickened with rage watching Bondi disrespect our Senators, I came to realization.
She is a scared and abused too pretty woman who makes women with real strength pity her.
He publicly demeans her with his tweets and she responds immediately and gives him his way. I call that control .

This should be getting a lot more attention. This is trump’s war on judges who oppose him.

When you see how excited Trump, Russ Vought, and Republicans are about the government shutdown, it becomes pretty obvious the reason why they refused to negotiate a compromise with Democrats is because they wanted this and they completely own this, regardless of their lies.

Yes, Black Hawk helicopters were involved in a major Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid in Chicago today, October 1, 2025. Federal agents reportedly rappelled from the helicopters onto the rooftops of residential buildings in the South Shore neighborhood.

Think people for Christ sake. This is not propaganda. tRUMP IS DEFUNDING THE POLICE AND SENDING AMERICAN SOLDIERS AGAINST AMERICAN CITIZENS.
β€œWe need to do this before they are out of control”. Direct quote from the your president. Sure as ffing hell not mine. I would be the enemy within.
