This is my friend Pam and her husband Ron. He is a Vietnam veteran. They have both been involved in POW causes for decades.

Yesterday, at a hands off rally in St Joseph, Missouri, a man drove around them in his pickup yelling at them.

MAGA folks are not patriots. They never were.

Trump, Zelensky meeting turns to shouting match
YouTube video by FOX 4 Dallas-Fort Worth Trump, Zelensky meeting turns to shouting match

Mr. Zelensky, on behalf of the American people, I am truly sorry you were subjected to this humiliating display of disrespect and childish petulance. Donald Trump and JD Vance are an embarrassment to us all. Stay strong, and please forgive us.

So, who consumes steel, aluminum, and copper in massive quantities? American Auto Manufacturers.

What did auto makers do after Trump's last tariff on Chinese metal? Moved component production to Canada and Mexico.

It appears Mr. Trump is attempting to kill American Auto Industry jobs. Why?

Smoot–Hawley Tariff Act - Wikipedia

Just a reminder. The last time a Republicans imposed a 25% blanket tariff on our top trade partners, American imports and exports dropped by 67% and turned a recession into a decade long global depression. It was the most il-conceived legislation of all time.

Stocks surged more than 24 percent in 2024, even as Americans fretted over the economy. Of course, you’d never know that from the media coverage during the months leading up to the election.

Yes, and about $35 Trillion of that has been sucked out of the future prosperity of our kids and grand kids. Without the corporate and top marginal tax cuts of the Reagan, Bush and Trump presidencies, there would be NO NATIONAL DEBT.

Perhaps it is time to Defund the Billionaires.

Bidenomics Was Wildly Successful The president’s domestic record wasn’t just extraordinary. It might put Democrats back in power in four years.

It’s worth reviewing our Constitution’s preamble, clearly stating what should be our task:

β€œto form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity”

Another thought. Republican tax cuts, immigration and tariff policies of the 1920s collapsed our economy and those of our trade partners in Europe and Japan, causing the rise of authoritarian regimes, and WWII.

We're replaying history expecting a different outcome.

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

Billionaires are now in charge of cutting social programs instead of paying their fucking fair share in taxes.
