If USA had been treated so badly, raped, pillaged, ravaged (interesting use of rape in description), how come Trump became so wealthy? And Musk, and indeed all Trump’s cabinet.
I can't speak for the others but Frumpy got rich by lying, cheating, stealing and generally ruining countless lives with total disregard for anyone else. He has bankrupted countless other businesses (besides his own) by refusing to pay the contracted amount putting other business out of existence.
This is all part of the plan- bankrupt us, starve us and keep everyone sick so that we have to beg.
NEVER! I will go to my grave before i ever bow to this authoritarian bullshit
Hopefully the rejection of musk in Wisconsin will lead to a rejection of him by tRump. Of course since his minions are ensconced in a myriad government agencies, I’m not sure we’ll see a difference….probably another deplorable will be chosen to follow him🙄
Sometimes I feel like a mother of a toddler saying over and over again “ be careful you’ll hurt YOURSELF” knowing in the end they’ll have to get hurt to learn I struggle with the knowledge that I will suffer from their actions as well. Just because we’ve been warned doesn’t ease the pain.
I pray for Trump's health every single day.
Do you honestly think Vance is an upgrade here?
Right now Heritage is running things through Trump, but that's a pain. I guarantee they'd MUCH rather have Vance in that seat.
And you don’t think THF is taking care of that? They’re either poisoning him (he literally looks like death these days) or they’re gonna 25th him outta there May 1.
I don't think they're poisoning him; I think he's doing that all on his own with his shitty diet.
I predicted before the election that they'd 25th him, but now I think they want to keep him till they're sure they can rig elections with the SAVE act. So maybe after midterms.
I didn’t watch it. I don’t really like Tom Cruise. I watched the first one in the movie theater when I was in about 4th grade about 15 times because that’s when the really big movies stayed for months at a time. 😂 I just hate that though. I really loved Val Kilmer.
Yeah I think the Scientology warped his brain. It’s almost like a cult I think. You have to separate yourself from anybody that’s not a member- even your children.
The original I was a big Tom Cruise Fan. Ive always been a Val fan too. I stopped liking Tom when he was in Eyes Wide Open with then wife .There was just something there that blurred the lines of making a movie and a part of their real life. I saw them falling apart in real time and in movie time.
I understand wanting to do a Stanley Kubrick film but I have to agree that the movie seemed an odd choice for them and they did break up after that movie!
I enjoy Tom Cruise movies but his personal life seems very fucked up!
Sending you hugs. Florida will always be Floriduh. Most citizens here vote against their own interests. The brainwashing down here is obviously severe and the education level is obviously low. The day I get to leave here will be the happiest day of my life!
I'm convinced that if all the blue dots moved to a swing state, we would win future elections. Sadly, just as you say, you're a prisoner of your circumstances.
Depends on where you live in the purple state. It’s deeply red in my district and my representative refuses to consider any views other than MAGA. The repub state legislature is trying to overturn votes and make it harder to vote. However I did notice that a local trumper has removed his flags. 🤞🏼
I’m in MN but in a red district (emmer, massive tool) so I feel ya. I want more blue dots from around the country to move to this area, and get rid of that sack of garbage with feet.
AGREED. Dems also like to play by the RULES and there are no fucking RULES right now. I am so over Dems and there nonchalant ways. Being this was for decades is why we are here in this mess today!
Well, intelligence used to be able to win arguments and there seemed to be fewer leaders that drank the Koolaid. Things have definitely changed so a change in strategy is merited.
I am so sorry! We are ALL fucking trapped here ugh. Honestly when my Mom leaves this earth I will sell everything I own and leave if there is anything left to leave to once Orange Poopy Pants gets done with this country!
I’m so sorry you’re stuck there; I thought about moving to Fla a few years ago, but decided against it bc… DeSantis. Sending you hugs and support, and hope that things eventually turn around in Fla
Thank you for your kind words. FL will never get better. I have been here my ENTIRE life 51 yrs. This state will always be known as FloriDUH. At this point, I would cut my arm off to leave. The biggest regret of my life is NOT leaving this country when I had 2 chances to do so. 😭
Oh yes Vero Beach. It is so strange to me just how southern Florida is. I grew up in Miami so I never realized it until I moved to Tampa. I have seen more rebel flags in Tampa than I ever did going to Helen, GA every summer to stay with my grandparents in the mountains. It is so weird to me.
Through our history, the people who pushed out the frontier found that it was the new federal government that was the biggest obstacle to killing native Americans, taking their land, and they started defining "liberty" and "freedom" as their rights to do as they pleased to others, ie, oppress them.
Bringing back factory jobs is not the answer.

Those districts were like R+30 in 2024. There was no way we were going to win them. The crucial takeaway is that the margin was basically cut in half. That's pretty big.
I am curious, is the threat of civilization ending also his pick up line? Like: "If we don't have sex there is real danger of population collapse and I won't be able to save western civilization!!"
I have designed a poster for the upcoming HANDS OFF! protests on Saturday, April 5th. If anyone wants a printable file of it, please message me : ) Find out more about the protests here: https://www.mobilize.us/handsoff/
⚪️ This morning I remembered a scene from the dystopian Netflix film “Leave the World Behind” in which a sea of broken-down white Teslas blocked a road during civilization’s meltdown.
I remember that scene too. It was horrifying to see all those Teslas going rogue and crashing into each other, like that could never happen irl… at least that’s what Elon says
To be fair it’s not the end of western civilization. It’s just the end of America’s hegemony. I suspect China is going to be taking that vacancy and we will be looking eastward for leadership. Maybe Europe to the west? It will take time for the waters to calm. How long before the DOH! Moment? USA?
The fact that the 🍊🦧 is saying that the Ketamine King is going to be out shows that he’s embarrassed and is afraid that it will reflect badly on him! Guess what dumbass it’s to little to late!
The end of Western civilization was pretty damn disappointing, TBH. I apparently STILL have to do my taxes and pay attention to my jury duty summons, what's up with that??
I wonder what happens if you walk up to a coffee shop in the United States and say “I would like one canadiano please” like would they just make the coffee or back talk?
Why would you torture someone at their job like this? What purpose does that serve? Former barista here and that’s just obnoxious behavior. Plus Americanos were created because Americans were too weak to handle espresso shots so shouldn’t we just keeping calling it the same thing?
Whoah whoah, slowdown here. This isn’t an attack on baristas of America. The post is out of genuine curiosity around how far this Canadian americano movement goes. I don’t like americanos. It needs to be sweet or strong to spike my interest. It’s cool that Canadians are fighting for sovereignty tho.
I didn’t say anyone was attacking baristas. I would encourage you to be more aware of what happens when people make comments like this on the internet. You might not order this drink but others will read your post and think that’s a great idea. Let’s start doing that.
If some Canadians somewhere feel this creates solidarity, it’s on the menu where they are ordering it, and they like tongue twisters awesome. Ordering this places it’s not on the menu or trying to start this other places not cute. Let’s have respect for workers. All I’m pointing out.
i get it, buuuuut i dont. “americano” as a name for a coffee drink came about in Jamaica, referencing mild coffee associated with the America’s (plural), NOT specifically or strictly the US, but N., C., and S. America
i said i get it, but like if we are being honest; if y’all wanna stick it to USA for our sins, you should, let’s honor and uplift the rest of the Americas, you know all those brown people that are actually from here. Canada is chill, but white western society does not need to be uplifted rn.
no shit its ment to be disparaging, i made no statement to counter that notion. and yes, there is truth to American soldiers watering down their espresso in WW2. but the usage of the word in that context came later, on a global misunderstanding of what different cultures mean by weak/strong coffee.
the origins of the namer “americano” are from 1950’s Jamaica. more than anything it references the prevalence of the America’s drinking “milder” filter coffee as opposed to espresso dominated drinks.
but even the use of the name in a disparaging way, is more modern and contemporary. As it was starting to become popularized post 1950’s, it very much was a “positive” marketing/propaganda campaign.
Hanging in there. Preparing my boogie bag if I have to leave quickly. Though I'd rather hunker down on my side of the mountain. At least I can see what's coming most of the time.

You think it’s easy to keep track of who’s dead and who’s just missing when the IDF is shoving people around and turning entire neighbourhoods to rubble?
Certainly not, but you also can’t trust anything the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry reports. Even the UN admitted in a press conference last June that Hamas was fabricating the numbers. If you care at all about the truth, and not just one that fits your narrative, then you might want to know. 💁♀️
I don’t know where you got that information, but it appears to be false. The UN and other organisations consider Hamas’s figures to be plausible, if not an underestimate.
February 2025 The Heritage foundation has no use for him, billionaires have no use for him, the evangelicals are getting Palestine - they have no more use for him & the old republicans & democrats don't give a shite.
Elon is going to give up on us and replace us all with AI. That's after he colonizes Mars, which is right after he gets full autonomous cars to work. And when he does that, his father will finally love him.
IMO Elon has lost much of his frontal cortex to Ketamine and now has the emotional development of a hyena or crocodile. He needs to be charged and caged away from Humanity.
It's really hard to tell how much of his open Naziism is hubris after the election, and how much of it is disregulation from Ketamine. His family moved to South Africa shortly after the 1948 Apartheid constitution was adopted, and left the year it ended. High, or mask off? Who can tell!
Honestly, I keep waffling between ennui and outright depression. It's not just FOTUS that gets to me, it's that so many 'people' actually voted for and support the ignorant felon. And now we're not only up the creek without a paddle, we're without the canoe too!

He can't even deliver FSD - years after he said "we're almost there"
There are 60 Republican Reps that didn’t win by 15 points
Elon spent $27 million and got beat by 14 points proves that his money is not enough to win
The mind set in the Republican House is different today than yesterday

Not sure if that is worse or better, but the fact is only 26% voted for Trump
I am ashamed to claim this country and am embarrassed, saddened, angry-all the feels- for what he has done to this country and our allies.
I am sorry 😞
There are over 700. https://handsoff2025.com/ Spread the word!
It’s this weekend - APR 5
Thank you, Wisconsin!
Remember that less than a third of citizens voted for Trump.
