It was Reagans doctrine, that started the deep pile of shit, we're in now. He was just as big a bigot as the ones in power now. He just had the sense to not shout it out from the roof tops.
Ron would have loved to be the one gutting Medicare, Social Sec, Medicaid. But he knew, it would cost him...

Questions for the democratically elected Republicans in Washington. Why are you not standing by your oath to the Constitution and all the American people? Is this just about power and money for you? Not meeting with all constituents is not democracy. You are cowards only thinking of yourselves.

thedanishmusician.bsky.social•1 day ago

Their God King told them, is was okay to screw over people and the Constitution. And yes, it's just about the power, so they keep the gravy train of their donors running. They call them selves christians, but have no problem lying, cheating - hell, they even have Trump as their Messiah...

Yeah they suck. But they are like Reagan in the way they are fucking things up for reg Peeps. Reagan was a puppet to sign things that crushed some people. I know we have the "tear down that wall" and shit, but his administration was bad for "We the people" esp the working poor. ✌🏻💙

jukka-pekka.bsky.social•1 day ago

Putting your own interests over those of the people will do that.

phoenix-chick.bsky.social•1 day ago

Because Reagan got rid of the fairness doctrine which led to the indoctrination of 1/3 of our nation. He absolutely bears responsibility for this.

egrattan.bsky.social•1 day ago

You have no idea what that policy for local broadcast was.

phoenix-chick.bsky.social•1 day ago

Okay 🤷‍♀️

egrattan.bsky.social•1 day ago

It’s pretty obvious

phoenix-chick.bsky.social•23 hours ago

You don’t think that removing the requirements for all networks to provide equal time for opposing ideas and positions didn’t pave the way for this? Fox “News” et al have a big part to play in this.

egrattan.bsky.social•23 hours ago

The FD didn’t apply to networks. It didn’t require equal time. It never had shit to do with cable channels. Learn to read your source links.

The world changed, either our educational system got worse, or more people were born stupid, or a grifter like Trump came along at just the right time, and a lot of people bought what he was selling, or we're seeing a shift in the way people think, like many people don't like the LBGTQ movement.

Bc they aren’t the Republican Party. They are the RINOs that hijacked the Republican Party

Let me remind you that Reagan was no saint. Going all the way back to his days as CA governor. People need to stop revering that POS too. Many of your problems START with him.

It’s simple.

In my experience, those who preach morality the loudest are usually the worst scumbags. They don’t do it because they care, they do it to pander to bigots and other despicable people like themselves.

Now, faced with a choice between their cushy, high-paying jobs and doing the...

eltee7x-war.bsky.social•1 day ago

...right thing, their masks have fallen. They never cared about morality; they only cared about keeping their positions, doing next to nothing while cashing in.

That’s why they’re suddenly flipping their positions and ideas, just like the clown Marco Rubio did on Ukraine.

Zelenskyy Is a HERO
Trump is an asshole full of shit & Putin ASSET (Bitch)
JD Vance, Rubio & Lindsey Graham are Traitors & spineless. Republican Wakeup and Impeach Trump!

Reagan was a front for a bunch of selfish crooks. They made decisions based on power and greed just as the Republicans do today. Their plan has always been to consolidate power in order to privatize our government services so that corporations can rip off the American taxpayer.

It's exactly what Reagan and his evil cohorts wanted. Don't tell me they wouldn't be bowing to oligarchs if they were alive today.

Trump became president and Republicans bowed to him just to keep their jobs. They all need to be primaried and lose. Fucking ignorant voters keep them in.

Kremlin on the US:
- "In line with our vision" Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said to Russian state television Sunday.

The new US administration is rapidly changing its foreign policy, now turning its back on the Western world and embracing its old arch-enemy Russia.

Shame on Trump and MAGA! 😡

Against all the odds Zelenskyy walked into a pre-planned ambush and walked away the victorious hero by diplomatically out-trumping bully-boy Trump.In contrast,Starmer and the British public greet Zelenskyy with dignity and respect,regardless of his attire.

I can't ever trust a REPUBLICAN. They're self righteous, cowards, everyone of them.

If they are a Republican they are in a cult and cannot be trusted. MAGAts are immoral people.

It wasn't a negotiation -- it was an ambush. Their purpose was entirely to belittle Zelensky. Children bullying.

They are not THAT party any longer. Not that it was so great back then either. But at the very least, most of them were democracy loving patriots.

Reagan? He’s the one who laid the ground work for this! He’s the one who shut down all the mental institutions and began the homeless crisis. He’s the one who swore trickle down was going to be great for everyone. He’s the one who had a photo op at the Berlin Wall. It was coming down anyway.

Let’s pick a day soon, and collectively donate relief aid to Ukraine through https://Rescue.org (or https://united24.gov.ua), wear Ukrainian colors, and show the people of Ukraine (and the assholes here) that there are millions of us who support Ukraine and hate MAGA. Someone with a massive following, coordinate?
