Mr Trump, leta get our relationship clear. I'm a citizen, one of those covered by 'We the people.. '. I do not work for you. You will not dictate to me. You are a federal employee. My taxes support the federal government making you my employee and me your employer. Are we clear on that now?!

Although the people of Denton passed the measure in 2020 w 72% voting in favor of decriminalizing small amounts of pot, Paxton fought them in court and the city overturned- wait for it-;the Democratic will of the people. You think we aren't losing our democracy- think again.

The steepest increase in the national debt in history-under Trump 1.0, pre COVID. It also increased dramatically under Biden mostly due to COVID recovery efforts. The new budget adds an additional 3 trillion to the debt, adding yet another bankruptcy to his portfolio, this time taking down w/him.

The lowest-income households would see an average tax cut of about 0.6 percent of their after-tax income. Middle income households would see their taxes fall by about 1.7 percent. In contrast, the top 1 percent would get an average tax cut of nearly 5 percent. Do you still think they care about you?

Rubio: 'No judge and the judicial branch cannot tell me or the president how to conduct foreign policy. No judge can tell me how I have to outreach to a foreign partner or what I need to say....I have no obligation to share that with the judiciary branch.' No, Mr Rubio, you answer to us.

This woman has no idea what habeas corpus is or means. She replied that it gave the president the constitutional authority to remove people when in fact it's quite the opposite. It is a constitutional right to challenge your detention and requires the gov. to prove why it's legally authorized.

Saddam Hussein, Kim Jung Il, Putin, Stalin, Hitler... What do they have in common with Trump? A need to glorify themselves by having tacky gold-gilt rooms, expensive military parades, and hanging enormous banners of their own mugs on buildings. We are not sliding into authoritarianism- we're there.

I haven't seen Trump drop the prices of his ludicrous crypto coins, or the million $$ access to his dinners, his golf club fees, etc. Amazing how the responsibility always lies with others but there's no personal responsibility taken, ever, by this narcissistic megalomaniac.

He brings shame to the US

Where is the national outrage? Adriana Smith, 30 yr old mother & nurse, was declared brain dead after a stroke. She was 9 weeks pregnant. She's been kept on life support against family until her 'due date'. She is legally dead, but being used as nothing more than an intubated incubator. Horrifying.

Fraud- anyone surprised? Billy Long, former Republican congressman from Missouri whom President Trump has tapped to lead the IRS, encouraged people to claim a tax credit that the I.R.S. has said does not exist, along with peddling of a separate, fraud-ridden pandemic-era tax break.
