I am SO feeling this right now!

I see what’s coming and it’s frustrating that others don’t. Tourism is down - rippling effect. Small businesses can’t withstand tariffs - ripple effect Dialing back funding for social wellbeing programs - ripple effect Not funding universities - ripple effect Scaring away immigrants . . .

NEW: Trump’s second term has been marked by continued attempts to take over federal agencies and expand his power. In the past few days, the President has added the Library of Congress and the U.S. Copyright Office to his list of targets. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social

I just tried to pick up a prescription for my boyfriend using my ex-husband‘s date of birth. Too many husbands. Maybe we humans are living too long. 🫠

I miss a sane and humble president. Badly

Has anyone gotten around to firing Shaboozey yet? I mean, Hegseth? And are we doing anything about the 300 people in El Salvador? Crickets? 🦗? Ah, I see how it is. Crickets. 🦗🦗🦗🦗

The President doesn’t know if he needs to uphold the Constitution. This shouldn’t be shocking because he fomented an armed insurrection. So, yes, he should obviously be removed from office. He’s violating the Constitution & nuking the economy. #RemoveTrump Call your reps 202-224-3121

So the president doesn’t know what due process is. And he’s not sure if he’s supposed to uphold the constitution. How long are the Republicans going keep up this “Weekend at Bernie’s” act? It’s going to be until they have to wheel him around on a hand truck, Isn’t it?

Bring him and the 300 other people back for a fair hearing.

Why hasn’t Pete Hegseth been fired? Too afraid he’d squeal if he wasn’t part of the “team”? Why isn’t Kilmar Abrigo Garcia back in the US, along with the other ~300 people who should not have been sent to El Salvador without due process? Why?

The mother fucker who received due process 4 times says “I don’t know” when asked if people deserve due process. Anyone who is surprised by this authoritarian answer should count backwards from 11,780.

What’s worse? T*rump being manipulated by Russia? Or T*rump being manipulated by Russia and not understanding he’s being manipulated by Russia?

It isn't that America lacks courage. It's that we’ve become so cut off from one another that many of us feel alone, which makes us feel afraid. But when we are surrounded by courageous people, all of us become more courageous.  Courage is contagious.

This is a lie. Here's how Mr. Abrego gets back. 1. Bukele releases him from CECOT. 2. The US gives him humanitarian parole as part of the court order requiring them to facilitate his return. 3. His family buys him a plane ticket. 4. He flies home. THIS ISN'T HARD.

Mob rule.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

I've quoted this passage from Trump -- where he states his intent to cause riots and US economic collapse -- so many times. He flat-out announced it on Fox News in February 2014. In my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT I quote my own 2016 essay warning of his plan: www.hidinginplainsightbook.com

ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it.

Did you guys see this? The Supreme Court ruling on the El Salvador detainees case was 5-4, which I’d seen, but I just looked & its the 4 women vs the 5 men. No wonder conservatives don’t want women allowed to go to law school — we make too much sense. 🤦🏼‍♀️

What about Hegseth? Canned yet? Sacked? 86-ed? Escorted out? Naw? Interesting. 🧐
