And THAT, my friends, is how it’s done! 🤗 Rich McCormick showed up to his own town hall expecting a warm GOP hug and instead got booed into another dimension. His constituents—actual Republican voters—lit him up like a malfunctioning Tesla, furious over job losses, budget cuts, 1/4

Of course stocks are tumbling in this unstable, scary environment led by ignorant, unstable people. Countless Americans fired, programs we rely on shuttered. Trump has alienated allies & trade partners. Stupid tariffs loom & with them higher inflation. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/b...

I have a few theories as to why Trump is gunning so hard to strip Native Americans of citizenship - resources, money and racism. He wants to give the rez land and its resources to his cronies. Casinos for himself, and to strip black American descendants of slaves, of their citizenship …

Got to say I LOVE the Trump Administration negotiating to get Rare Minerals from Ukraine, for 2 reasons: 1. It reduces our dependence on China for Lithium and Graphite (China provides near 70% of world supply) 2. More than 50% of those minerals are in Russian Annexed land.

www.wired.com/story/doge-e... From the resigning director: "These cuts were shortsighted, ill-informed, and indiscriminate. The government and the American people will be worse off from the loss of these people.” Sounds like a summary of all the cuts made by DOGE so far. Reckless Stupidity.

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.
