Just a reminder, cuz it seems one is needed, if you're 35 today and Indigenous, you're old enough to have attended residential school in Canada. #indigenoushistorymonth

Donald Trump is far more interested in making money from the Presidency than he is in serving the American people.

Don’t like gay marriage? Don’t get married to the same sex. Don’t like gender-affirming care? Don’t have any. Don’t like Planned Parenthood? Don’t go there. Don’t like abortion? Don’t get one. Just because *you* don’t like it doesn’t mean *others* shouldn’t be able to it.

The US is not in the top ten nations of life expectancy, or in the top ten of intelligent countries. It has the most gun violence & the most prisoners per population. The fake president is a convicted criminal & a thief. It will be hard to make this country great, unless huge changes are made.

I wasn’t aware that gifting pardons to convicted felons that committed fraud and bribery who also donated to the orange felon was something that could help the American people, I guess I’m still new to the whole ‘evil tyrannical felon being sent to the White House again’ thing.

I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.

Canada welcomes the U.S. Court of International Trade’s decision on the United States’ tariffs. It confirmed what we’ve always held: that the American tariffs against Canadian goods are unlawful and unjustified.

Here are THREE corrupt ways Donald Trump is allowing billionaires to pay to play: 1. The Trump family's new $500k members only club 2. Trump's crypto deals 3. Trump's presidential library (that's where the luxury jet is headed) Trump's making billions while your prices go up.

DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY SCIENCE: 1. Chickenpox 2. Diphtheria 3. Measles 4. Pertussis 5. Pneumococcal Infection 6. Polio 7. Tetanus 8. Typhoid 9. Yellow Fever 10. Smallpox DISEASES ERADICATED OR DECIMATED BY RFK JR. OR PRAYER: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

As Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill moves to the Senate, we must make it clear: There is nothing “beautiful” about giving huge tax breaks to billionaires while cutting health care, nutrition and education for working families. It is grossly immoral and, together, we must defeat it.

This Memorial Day weekend, the best way to honor the soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice is to honor and protect the freedoms and the democracy they died for.

5 years ago: “An incalculable loss” Today: Banning masks and restricting vaccine access

It definitely made sense for the stable genius to start a trade war with Canada and talk about making them our 51st state right before he rolled out a grand plan for a Golden Dome missile defense system that requires the cooperation and help of Canada. Master strategist.

Trump’s image of dead ‘white farmers’ came from Congo, not South Africa, like Trump claimed. Trump is a liar and an idiot. www.cnn.com/2025/05/22/a...

I’m not sure I’ve seen corruption in this country quite so blatant as two of President Trump’s latest schemes: his memecoin dinner and the government's plan to accept a $400 million Qatari jet. Unless someone stops him, the corruption will just get more brazen.

I'm in Europe at the moment, and a) people are utterly baffled by America hitting the self-destruct button and b) also feel betrayed by the abandonment of decades-old alliances. Been going back between the US and Europe for a quarter century and never heard anything like it.

For those around the world wondering whats going on in the US right now, this is what the administration has decided to do to claw back cash to pay for more tax cuts for the 1%. Keep in mind even with all this destruction to protections & services... the national debt will balloon to pay for it.

Canada, Australia, France, the UK and Germany all pushed back against their fascists, with the help of their media. America, on the other hand, was pushed backwards into fascism without opposition, with the help of our media.

The House budget is a health care cataclysm for America. 15 million Americans will lose their health care. That's the total combined population of: West Virginia Hawaii New Hampshire Wyoming Vermont DC Alaska North Dakota South Dakota Delaware Rhode Island Montana Maine

While families are working hard to make ends meet, Donald Trump and Republicans are trying to jam through tax giveaways for the richest Americans—millionaires and billionaires who are getting richer by the day. Billionaires don’t need another break—working people do.

POTUS: On the one hand, I'm going make unfounded accusations of genocide against your country. On the other hand, if you offered me an airplane, I would take it.

this is the president of the united states repeating unhinged racist propaganda ginned up by the worst white supremacist ideologues on earth

President Trump has not wasted a moment using his position of power for personal gain. Today’s official acceptance of a luxury jet from the Qatari government for use as Air Force One poses a needless threat to U.S. national security and is a disturbing abuse of the office of the President.

The Constitution says that Congress must approve gifts to the president and his family from foreign potentates, but apparently the Constitution is mostly decorative these days.

Pentagon announces that it has formally accepted the "palace in the sky" jet from Qatar. Plain and simple violation of the Emoluments Clause without congressional approval. Don't think this is over.

GOP. The Party that HAPPILY brags about programs they DIDNT APPROVE OR CREATE...🤔

So what we have learned is that the Republican budget bill: - increases wealth for the richest 10% - decreases wealth for the poorest 10% - adds $3.8 TRILLION (greater than the total size of many foreign economies) to the deficit. What a f---ing disaster.

McGovern: "Now of course you don't want anybody to know what you're doing here. It's because you know this bill betrays the people who voted for you...you are intentionally hiding what you are doing...that's what you guys think is big and beautiful: greed, corruption, & tax breaks for billionaires."

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

The stock market is tanking today because Moodys downgraded our country’s credit rating. This is due to the GOP tax giveaway to billionaires and the resulting deficits. Meanwhile Donald Trump is busy posting about Bruce Springsteen and Beyoncé.

Motasem A Dalloul Israeli occupation forces have bombed and destroyed electricity generators at the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza, plunging the health facility into complete darkness and causing full paralysis of its health services! All patients in critical conditions are dying now!

It looks like Trump's administration knows in advance when he's going to announce tariffs -- then they sell or buy stocks to take advantage of that insider trading. It's illegal and corrupt.

Using my tax money to pay the family of this woman is against all moral and ethical codes that I live by.

RFK Jr. is calling for international cooperation on global health issues. We were once part of such a system called the World Health Organization. But because he and the rest of The Regime have an agenda dictated by conspiracy theories, they have ensured that the U.S. is isolated and alone.

Just in case you didn't know 🦋🫂🦋 please share

Good news: Donald Trump, who never lies, just announced he alone has reduced drug prices by 85%. Quick. Go to your pharmacy. Demand an 85% reduction on your drug prices. Tell them Trump sent you. If that doesn’t work, tell him to support the bill I'm introducing that'll do it.

Donald Trump is lying. Independent analysts say 14 MILLION PEOPLE will lose their health insurance under the "big, beautiful bill"—all to subsidize Jeff Bezos' next $500 million yacht.

BLUMENTHAL: Do you agree or disagree that babies and pregnant women within CBP and ICE custody should receive are tailored for their needs? And in God's name would the policy be rescinded providing that care? NOEM: I will look at that BLUMENTHAL: You don't know about this policy change?
