Second time Trump has blamed Iran for people “walking around with no legs and no arms”.
He again said he “obliterated” their nuclear sites, and yet that is one of the reasons for this war, which is not considered a “war” by his puppet regime in the Congress.
We need a Congress with a spine…

Trump says losing troops is “THE bad part of war”. Yes, but he doesn’t get that EVERY part of war is bad and tragic. Losing our troops is bad, tragic and heart wrenching as is losing innocent civilians including children and everyone else. There isn’t just one “bad part of war”. War is devastating.

Trump says the only way Iran can end the war is “unconditional surrender”. Plus he cut short a meeting because he “had to go watch the war“. But Republicans say we are definitely definitely not at war! How anyone with a working pulse can support this Maga chaos & lies I
will never understand.

it’s a good day for America when Kristi Noem is bye-bye. However, it is a very bad day for dogs and goats not to mention her “ special” staffer.

Press Secretary coldly and
stupidly says the press only reports the names of dead Americans due to the Iran war in order to make “the president look
bad.” No, it is to pay respect to those who are dying because of the Trump administration war of choice. Let me know when Trump’s family enlists.

marco says we went to war because israel
was going to. Trump says it’s the opposite. if they can’t agree on why we went to war how the heck will they agree on how to end it? And what to do after it ends.?
vote like never before!

Little Marco talks fast, with word salad. He says we are in war because another country was going to war. My dear departed mom would say: “ So if your friend jumps off a roof before it collapses you need to climb up and jump too because eventually it might collapse on you .” huh?

Trump casually tells America there’ll be more American casualties in his “that’s the way it is “ tone.
Thats the exact definition of a “chickenhawk”. Hope his bone spurs are hurting today.We are spending lives & treasure with no clear plan.chaos!

We see why “Dept. of Defense” changed name to “ Department of War”. There’s no “ imminent threat“ from Iran. Trump said he “ obliterated“ their nuclear program. Therefore Trump must go to Congress due to constitution and law .We see endless money for war, but none for American people.

Save America act is really The Save Republicans act. They want voter suppression not simple ID’s. Studies say non-citizen voting’s almost nonexistent, including studies by heritage foundation. It’s a takeover by the federal government of the states. It’s purging. It’s monumental hurdles for many.

GOP rule stands for:

Thinking about Trump and his state of the Union speech, I come up with 2 “d”words. It was a delusional deception.
Hard to count so many lies about how we are in golden age)
more D words:
Dangerous
Discordant
Derogatory
Deranged
It wasn’t a state of the union address. It was a huge
DIVERSION.

Trump tries to shine from the glow of great American war heroes, outstanding Hockey players
& brave survivors
of crime. That doesn’t override reality: the state of union is anxious
at best. It’s more fearful
re economy and the daily warmongering not to mention the disgust
at Epstein coverup.

Trump wants to
reject Political
Violence. Yes✔️.
So where is his promise to prosecute those who committed sexual violence against children & women? End Epstein/Trump coverup. Release the files you are holding.
Lots of talk about crime
but the biggest crime scandal? Someone is scared to mention it.

After listening to this narcissist (so far) i have learned that the only things Trump hasn’t done is
invent the automobile,
the atom bomb
and the internet. Otherwise he has been central to every major event since…forever.

Hearing Trump talk about corruption is like hearing Jack the Ripper talk about knives. Both are experts. Hearing him talk about his great health care plan is as believable as his promise to end war in Ukraine on day one. The state of the union is clear..it’s a mess.

Thanks for encouraging my activism.As long as each of us has a voice, we must fight FOR America and AGAINST those destroying it’s very meaning, as stated in the preamble to the constitution . It calls for “a more perfect union“, that ensures the “blessings of liberty to ourselves & our posterity“.

in 2018 Trump cancelled the Iran nuclear accord. Now, he’s getting ready for war. So let’s get this straight. Contemplating war because Iran won’t agree to a nuclear deal that Trump ended not mended. There needs to be a vote in Congress before we put our forces in danger and destabilize the world.

What a perfect model for our kids… Not! So when the court says you can’t do something you triple down and yell at them and insult them. Spoiler alert: tariffs are taxes on consumers, and your new round of increased tariffs will only hurt we the people and we the people vote.

Trump lashes out at 6 Supreme Court Justices who actually upheld the constitution today. He said they were corrupted by foreign influence. My message to Court: remember that the constitution is your master and the petulant president is not! History is watching.

Amazing win by women’s hockey team USA ! Idea for Senate: in appreciation & understanding of the equality & talent of women, vote down “the save act” which is essentially a poll tax . millions of women with husband’s name will have difficulty voting. “save act” not voter ID. It’s voter suppression.

Thank you for this . This legislation is an another version of Poll tax.

According to respected, non-partisan groups, the Save Act is a voter suppression law. Passports golden but half of us don’t have passports. Married women who changed name targeted. Blocks of voters blocked. It calls for continual purges of voter rolls.Read more details.
GOP scared of voters.

MAGA frightened Texas Senate seat will flip blue. So Trump FCC ordered CBS to block Colbert’s interview of Texas Senate candidate James Tallarico.
Except for the Colbert show, I hope people will boycott CBS. A must watch now: Colbert‘s banned Tallarico interview on his YouTube channel!

President’s Day different this year. For a majority. We miss the normal Presidents whose goal was to lift us up not grind us down… not turning us against one another and not building a network of detention camps to disappear us.
We have the power to check this! And then end this! 2026 is phase 1.

Pardon me for this but the save America ACT should be called the screw Americans Act because that’s what it does… It will suppress our votes. Studies show our state run voting systems are safe and accurate . Truth is Republicans are afraid of American voters. They should be.

Idea: take the 38 billion ICE Is planning to spend on Trump concentration camps…(I mean detention centers) and immediately make it available to restore the healthcare tax credits for millions of Americans who are struggling to keep their health insurance, or who already lost it.

Trump finding new ways to kill us: destroying health research; stopping clinical trials on cancer cures; vaccine lies. And now a new one: repealing the endangerment finding on greenhouse gases, which, if not controlled will destroy our very home… Planet earth. November cannot come soon enough.

Reports say Trump pulls secret police from Minneapolis, leaving behind pain, loss, suffering. Also a remarkable display of loving community. Trauma stays. Dems must continue to lead the fight to end this illegal,stupid failed chapter in “MAGA dictatorship”. Minnesota: incredible leadership.

Over the years folks have asked me if women are
better than men. I always
said..
“no….we are equal.”
Pam Bondi just proved my point.
As a woman in a high position she embarrassed me with her haughty,disrespectful, evasive and irrelevant testimony. She should
be disbarred.
