Add this to the fact that every time Trump golfs at one of his own resorts, he jacks up the hotel rates for the Secret Service. The American people foot the bill—and he pockets the cash. That’s the waste, fraud and abuse DOGE should be exposing.

Sad but true. Anybody in the US who did not heed the warning and still voted for this nightmare deserves to suffer the consequences.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

There’s no such thing as A.I “art.” It’s a soulless amalgamation of plagiarised data. That is the antithesis of art.

The president is asserting an unreviewable power to seize any person off the street and ship him to a dungeon abroad. Nobody can say this is an overreaction or alarmism or "TDS" when this is literally what the administration is doing right now.

2022: undocumented immigrants paid $96 billion into Social Security/Medicare—yet these Trump marks have no clue they pay into the system & get nothing back. Just going to say it—Dems don’t have a messaging problem. We have a stupid people problem & encyclopedia-length memes won’t reach these folks.

Chuck Schumer knows the Democratic base is pissed off—not just a little. Polling shows grassroots anger is real and Schumer’s outdated tactics are deepening the divide. Dems need to rebuild & reconnect w/folks. @schumer.senate.gov helped create our problem & can’t be part of the solution.
