I'm in Canada at the moment watching grandkids. Had a long chat with the reading tutor who at first was hesitant, not knowing if I was maga or not. Our upstairs neighbors are very worried for us. ☹️
every day that america exists truly is a scourge on this planet. may the indigenous be liberated from this continual genocide they face and all land returned to them.
I'm less ashamed than yesterday, because the current situation is not acceptable. And criminals exposing each other today proves what we've been saying for years.
Indeed.
I was in 2016, but it seemed like it could be temporary. Then the troglodytes reelected the criminal. This disgusting felon is, to some extent, who this country is. We have to accept that. And even when he's gone, that stain will remain.
I hear you.
This move to create the exploited class has been coming all my life.
Every step along the way has been awful.
Some of them I knew were bad, like Citizens United.
Others were surprises I only see in hind sight.
I’ve seen many similar posts over the past few months.
Be disappointed AS an American, but remember you have much to be proud of.
Organise,
#Resist,
VOTE !
We’re rooting for you ! 🦘 🇦🇺
I’m ashamed of the current regime and those that enabled it. Embarrassed by their behavior. But not ashamed to be an American, or for the promises of America. We are still forming “a more perfect union” it seems.
Thank you! Im tired of being lumped in with the idiots that voted for this. Im not embarrassed, ashamed, or disheartened. Im pissed and i want my country free from this derangement!
I've felt that way since Jan. 20th.
What a disgrace Trump is. Every day he finds a new way to hurt a group of people.
Whether it's taking away Medicaid, food assistance or helping veterans, there is no bottom to his cruelty.
We can't afford to help people, but Trump can afford a military parade.
We will all wake up tomorrow with red rubber balls for noses.
And when we grasp them to try to pull them off, they will honk.
It will be permanently unpleasant for us, but on the bright side, it will provide hours and hours of amusement for our hosts when we travel abroad.
Perk up, bebbe! MOST Americans are decent people who abhor what's going on. They may not all be as courageous as you nor as smart, but they're decent. We will prevail.
Me too-but I’m laughing at the ridiculous and the tabloid nature of our leaders in the government right now. We have the equivalent of Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum fighting and neither one has a clue what they’re doing trying to run a country and it shows.
Don’t do that to yourself. Today we honor the Righteous Among Nations, who assisted Jews during the Holocaust, and the French Resistance, and people who contributed to the Underground Railroad. The world knows that the worst countries always have people who have not allowed themselves to be bought
I'm embarrassed, ashamed, but not surprised where the president has led this country into turmoil and chaos! Now other democracies are wondering how long we will flounder along until the other branches step up and impeach this felonious grifter!💯
I have family in Europe who understand the majority of us didn't vote for this asshat. It gives me hope the rest of the world won't hold it against us.
Feeling sorry for all the smart Americans that never voted for this prick. Maybe it’s time America splits in two. The red states can be one country and be called “Backwards America” or something and the Blue states can either join Canada or become their own country. I’d suggest building a wall.
Been saying it for ten years. I can't believe half our younger generations are actually Team Fascism. Willing to give it a try. (Repub voters)
That's what young & stupid Germans did all those decades ago. They regretted it for the rest of their lives.
(German Immigrant w/first hand stories.)
Remember though, We are REAL Americans, granted, the whole thing started out more than a bit fucky, but overall the pieces are there, the potential is real, Americans who hold to that set of ideals are out there everyday doing all they can for everyone they can. WE are America, not Maga.
You’re not alone..
I didn’t know that it was possible for an entire MAJORITY of “Congress” to be capable of and willing to allow and HELP a MADMAN utterly DESTROY OUR once-great Nation..
Nobody is going to save US except for ALL of US!
They say if you want it done right, do it YOURSELF
But HOW?
Tragically, you’re right.
No matter which side wins, we’ve already LOST so much that cannot be brought back:(.
NO good answers is right..
At this rate of INSANITY and downward spiral, I fear there WILL be blood..
Thank you for saying out loud what many silently think
Orwellian THOUGHTCRIMES but very REAL
Our nation was founded in large part with SLAVERY
IF martial law happens, the return to THAT may be TOO close
BIG BROTHER & 1984!
The RICH owning ALL, including those that do not get killed off.
Do the math
Me too 😢 they’ve wanted civil war for years and I think they’re trying to bait protesters into violence. Then they can declare martial law and a national emergency. Once they do that they can do whatever they want to us. Even confiscate our property, bank accounts and houses. This is beyond evil
Just remember you are not the shame,you did not bring the shame, you do not support the shame, and you are actively opposing the shame. I am deeply ashamed of the plague in the White House and all those that support it. But that is not MY America.
Other countries used to observe our elections & process as a example to follow, probably until GW Bush’s “selection” by few hundred votes in a state w/his own bro as Gov, & conservative SC stopping recount. After that other countries stating feeling like…
Well no. They didn’t. Your elections take far too long and are far too costly to be held up as an example to follow. Not to mention the need for your politicians to have to lie about being Christian.
Ok. But this country is choking on it's appreciation of 'entertainment'. Part of why that POS won is because he was 'entertaining' while the Dems are just boring ole' smartypants people that can administer a governement (Yawn!).
Sorry to yuck your yum, and I get it. I'm hoping we get serious again
We have a serious problem with the average degree of education we provide our citizens. AND the average degree that those citizens even want to be educated.
I’d like to know if any of them are curious to learn a fact they’ve been told or read to simply enrich their lives? Reading to learn a new skill, recreationally, biographies about ppl who’ve shaped our world as we know it, famous-infamous leaders of ours+other nations, historical facts, etc..
Been that way for most of twenty years.
Biden and Obama at least had some class... but the surveillance state infrastructure (ie - everything Palantir's about to build on), the centralized executive power - has been building this way for a generation now.
Trump isn't the train - he's the crash.
Embarrassed. Disgusted.
This political soap opera is a degradation to our country. And yet it feels good that the true ugliness of these two people is flagrantly on display.
I remember years ago I always spread about what people who came to the United States. Thought of us when they would see an episode of Jerry Springer. This entire last year has been like a full on trailer park expose.
I’ve been ashamed since the orange one won the Presidency in 2016. Our country has been seriously damaged by him. I hope against hope that it’s not irreparable damage.
Exactly what they hope. THEY ARE NOT AMERICA! WE ARE! THEY HAVE ALL THE SHAME! THOSE THAT FIGHT STAND PROUD AND NEVER GIVE UP! TOO MANY HAVE DIED FOR OUR COUNTRY!
I’ve been ashamed for so long that I’ve grown numb to the depths of corruption and worthless politicians.
But at least there are a few things to laugh at now🤷🏻♀️
I'm visiting Canada right now, in conservative Alberta. Have had two different folks complain to me today about Trump. Very nice to me, of course, but they wonder what in the world is going on in America. And, btw, Canadian flags are everywhere, much more than American flags in the States.
You mean Trump being dressed down by Germany's Chancellor? Or kneecapping Harvard? Or being a TACO on foreign trade talks? Or publicly skirmishing with the richest man in the world and the reason he was elected? Or being put on Human Rights Watch because its unsafe? Why Jess?
As an Australian looking at what’s happening in the United States at this time I don’t know if I should be alarmed, sympathetic or frightened and it makes me ask the question “if it can happen there is it possible for something similar to happen here too?”. 🇦🇺🇺🇸
Please fight against it at every turn.Some of us here have been fighting this our entire lives.It starts with the isms (racist/sexism/classism) & the next thing you know, your neighbor wants your rights gone.So many people didn’t stand up until now. If you don’t want this, please band together now

This shit show is building to its climax far sooner than most people imagined.
There's still plenty to do but there's hope for the future.

YA GOTTA BELIEVE!
You should feel proud
We see the 🇺🇸n pushback
Would be so much easier to curl up in a ball and yet every day 🇺🇸ns say, No...
👊🏼
Stay safe 👊🏼
I have nothing but respect for the millions of Americans who fight tirelessly to protect their people.
❤️🇨🇦
And I, as the majority of 🇨🇦ians can differentiate between 🟠's madness and sane/decent 🇺🇸ns...
Our #ElbowsUp is against everything he represents and not 🇺🇸ns in their totality....
Stay safe 👊🏼❤️🇨🇦
Now lets run this orange bastard out of town.
Just know that the majority know and see you ...
Looking forward to the midterms
👊🏼❤️🇨🇦

We are patriotic Americans faced with a takeover of our government by criminals and traitors
*They* should feel shame
We have nothing to be ashamed of
And then there’s the electoral college.
And I think you’d need to go back way more than 25 years.
Sorry to yuck your yum, and I get it. I'm hoping we get serious again

Entire US Government nothing but #CriminalsAndCowards
Except @aoc.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social #MelanieStandbury @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @petebuttigieg.bsky.social and a few more
I literally hung my head and covered my face in shame after I read it. 😞
But at least there are a few things to laugh at now🤷🏻♀️
