Two weeks? Please put this in Trump Time Units (TTUs): How many rounds of golf?

Mr Rubio: Got time to think this through?

Cmon, Mr Putin. Cease the terror. Cmon, Mr Trump. Force his hand. Sanctions.

@msnbc.com Please start asking Trump’s Administration where all of the current tariff fees are going. This is happening in parallel with companies declaring they are passing on product cost increases to US consumers! Quit only talking about half of the problem!!!

substack.com/@marthapopli... Read. Reflect. Be tested. And: strive to pass!

www.bbc.com/news/article... All that smiling paid off. Waytogo, Mike!

Note to self: PROTEST

Imagine if this Administration followed every law as closely as they expect their prey to follow them!

www.newsweek.com/pope-francis... Good info. May the Holy Spirit guide us. Godspeed.

He forgets sooooo easily.

This Administration is desperate to find ways to justify tax cuts for the top 1% (who no doubt got where they are now because of our collegiate system).

Long game!

Corruption Abounds

Hate to say it: “Trump has waged a war on Christmas.” 🎄 Did not see that coming. 🎅 I dare him to end it. 🎁

For those of you near Cedar Rapids… come join us if you are free Sunday 4/27/25 at 3PM.

Incredibly true! The catalyst for a strong marriage!! 

Didn’t take phones… but enjoyed the company of many enlivened patriots in Cedar Rapids, IA! #HandsOff

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.

FINNERTY: We're hearing reports that 20 million people could lose Medicaid. Do people right now need to be concerned? REP. GREG MURPHY: If we don't do something, this nation's finances spiral out of control. (That's a "yes")

“Found its way…” Never takes responsibility. Passive voicing our way into a security catastrophe.
