I do not believe that hate speech & trash talking my fellow American is a form of free speech. Freedom of speech is where we have a legitimate back & forth discussion of issues that matter to us all as equals. Lets discuss solutions we all can live with.

Please tell me how members of a federal enforcement force are allowed to wear face coverings? I've never seen this before. Are they not PROUD of the work they do for their country? πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ

I have often wondered about the wealthy donors who provide dark money to pubs quietly behind the scenes...how many of them or their immediate family members have served or are serving in the armed forces of the United States? Most likely its less of a percentage than the general population. πŸͺ–

Pubs are now trying to kill the free IRS tax filing service so you'd be forced to use a paid service for this. There is nothing they will do for the rank & file voting slob to make their lives easier & less costly because they get campaign donations from the very companies you must pay for this. 😑

Pubs are self destructive and couldn't fix a broken toilet. They never fix anything. If dems try to pass legislation that actually might try to fix something...pubs will block it! 😨

What is the one and only qualification required for a pub to run for office and to hold office?...It is their ability to steam a mirror that is held to their nose. πŸ‘ƒπŸͺž

Why did the French have a revolution in the 1790s? Because the ruling elite lived in a bubble completely disconnected from the people whom they taxed. They lived in splendor not caring about the rank & file who were struggling with everyday living. You know what happened with that! πŸ«₯

What harm do transgender service member cause by serving? NONE! Trump and Hegseth want them gone. 😢

How is it possible for a pub to publicly identify as a Christian with traditional values and yet also be just fine with massive cuts to social programs that could actually get folks killed? How? Who do they stand for...the folks in need on the very bottom or...the ultra wealthy? Just who? 🀨

Pubs have bought into the idea that gov't already does to much for the ave slob & being the richest country in the world should now do NOTHING for the ave voting slob. This is taking us back to the days of the Guilded Age where workers were expendable & derived no benefit from their cititzenship! πŸ€•

For folks that follow fox and newsmax, its easy for them believe everything that is promoted without question. When those same false talking points are called out on any other news channel, those same folks dismiss it out of hand. I call that being "closed minded". πŸ€₯

Why don't the maggots EVER show up on any other network other than fox or newmax? Why? Aren't they interested in getting their message out to all Americans? 🫀

Pubs have be responsible for the budget problem through an unnecessary war in Iraq & multiple huge tax cuts that had limited benefit for the average working slob. Now they are fighting over how to fix a problem they created. Medicaid is all they can go after which hurts their own voters big time. 😩

I am surprised at just how many NON deep thinkers & closed minded individuals there are voting in the US. Maybe their life sucks & they think the political system will fix that, maybe to only a small degree it will. A stupid vote counts just as much as a smart one. Pubs go after the stupid ones. πŸ˜•

Do foreign university students have the same protest and free speech rights as US citizens? This question needs to be asked and answered. πŸŽ“

How is it that totally unqualified individuals can be confirmed for cabinet offices for which they have zero experience? If anyone one of us were to apply for a job for which we had no training or experience we would be rejected out of hand. Qualifications don't exist for high gov't offices? 😨

Dump is messing with Harvard U. In a serious way. Why doesn't he break up known hate groups as well? We don't need them. They do no public good where as Harvard has contributed notable good to our country for decades. 🀨

So dump would rather pick a fight with Taylor Swift than lower our grocery bills? He seems to be writing a lot of pardons these days. I know in my neck of the woods there lots and lots of pot holes. I'd sure like to see the roads repaved. Tax cuts for his wealthy donors appear to be his priority. πŸ›£οΈ

Republicans and republicans alone have created the current budget problem with EXCESSIVE TAX CUTS that they are now fighting over on how to solve. They are fighting over a problem that they created to make their mega donors over the moon happy. 🌚

Come on Blue Origin, step up to the plate. Musk and SpaceX need competition. Where are you? πŸš€

The thought that we will colonize Mars is misguided. The challenges & cost are simply too great. Mars will never be more than an outpost similar to the north pole or Antarctica. It might be possible if there were resources but there is nothing there but rocks & dirt. Lets take care of the Earth! 🌎

Its hard to believe that Elon Musk WAS progressive with electric cars & on climate change, lowering the cost of rocket launches & bringing internet to remote places with Starlink. We all thought he was a visionary, then...he succumbed to the DARK SIDE. How does anyone do a 180 back-flip like this? 😨

Its amazing that the members being appointed to the presidents cabinet ARE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE ANY PRIOR EXPERIENCE for the cabinet position they are being appointed to! Try getting a job as a CEO with the resume of a dog walker! πŸ•β€πŸ¦Ί

Republicans fix nothing and break everything they touch and yet...when democrats are in power...where sanity and stability rule the day, pubs can't stop proclaiming how messed and broken the country is. Hunter's laptop was a big deal to them! πŸ’»

A vote made by a complete idiot counts just as much as a vote made by a genius. 🧠

The republicans have a red line that at some point dump will cross...and then they will jump into action and say enough is enough! But just WHERE IS THAT RED LINE? Anybody? (Is there even one?) 😨

The value of our retirement system is based on a mix of Wall St, IRAs, 401ks, CDs & SOCIAL SECURITY. Wall St investments, interest bearing CDs & savings accts can have wild swings in returns but Social Security is the solid part that can be relied upon. SS IS NOT A PONZI scheme! Its the rock part! πŸͺ¨

I can't wait to apply for my new job as a TOILET PLUNGER ASSEMBLER! πŸͺ  Thank you DJT for bringing this job back to the US! πŸ˜€ Better get my resume ready. πŸ“

Just how long can fox and newsmax continue to put lipstick on a pig? πŸ·πŸ’„

Did Elon Musk actually believe that he could cozy up with a felon, habitual liar & instigator of Jan 6 & hack up the US govt with his chrome plated chainsaw & THERE WOULD BE NO REPERCUSSIONS? How naive! At minimum half the country does not like dump. Did he not see what happened to the pillow guy? 😯

We are supposed to tighten our belts another notch instead of look forward to lower prices? Dump was whining about high prices on the campaign trail as well as dogs and cats being eaten.

Trump is what you get when you get ALL of your news from Fox and Newsmax.

Fox proclaimed that the dump college commencement speech was a great one. Yeah, right. It sucked. It was all about him. It was terrible. We know fox is on another planet.

Its very easy for Elon Musk to publicly state that Social Security is a ponzi scheme because HE DOES NOT HAVE TO DEPEND ON IT as an important component of his eventual retirement. πŸ™‚

Trump Humiliated at Pope's Funeral: I KIND OF DOUBT IT! All these maga types live in an alternative reality bubble. They cannot be embarrassed, shamed, have feelings of guilt/remorse, pity, sympathy/empathy because their moral code is applied against a low bar that's easy to step over. 😯

Let's face the fact the Elon Musk has succumbed to the dark side.
