This is such awful advice. This is the President of the United States we’re talking about, not some anonymous 4chan troll. Every Dem should be waving this in front of a camera and saying “look at this stupid un-American piece of shit, he is repulsive”

Fantastic work

Veterans deserve the best health care available. At a time when the VA is already understaffed, these layoffs will hurt veterans. Unacceptable. Trump must not cut VA health care so that he can give tax breaks to Musk and other billionaires. The VA must rescind this order.

Book banning is in full swing. Evidently learning about the (albeit atrocious) history of slavery in the United States is no longer acceptable at some schools. This is appalling, I am disgusted. We must learn history to create a more livable present. What’s next?

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Agree! I like to say that “knowledge speaks…wisdom listens”

Yes we do! Capping fixed rates on credit cards will be a boon the majority of the US population (who are actually ((covert)) working class poor). Please. We are listening, @sanders.senate.gov

BREAKING: We're suing the Trump administration to allow immigrants they are detaining at Guantánamo Bay to access legal services. It is unprecedented and illegal for the president to ship people away from the U.S. and strip them of access to a lawyer.

Eggs are now $9.99 at my local market. Just regular everyday eggs.

Looking forward to reading Haruki Murakamis latest novel: asianreviewofbooks.com/wp-content/u... #2read #literature

An Associated Press reporter was was blocked from an Oval Office event today because the publication "did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America."

I love the reply! 👍😂

Trump claimed that DOGE has uncovered billions in “fraud, waste, and abuse.” However, no evidence has been provided, and all public fraud claims from both Elon Musk and Trump have been debunked as false.

When I go to my public library I go out and come back in a couple times to up the usage counter which is counted by the turnstyle

How many know that Dr. Gladys West invented GPS technology? #BlackInventors #BlackHistoryMonth

I enjoyed reading Haruki Murakami’s book 1Q84 “If you can't understand it without an explanation, you can't understand it with an explanation." "...if you don't believe in the world, & there is no love in it, then everything is phony...can only be seen with inner eye [of mind]" #Murakami

Every decent human being at the Super Bowl should take a knee during the National Anthem.

The reckless decision to release billions of gallons of water from the Terminus and Schafer Dams is already hurting farms and farmers. It’s a massive waste. I'm demanding answers from the Army Corps of Engineers about what happened. And why.

In honor of black inventors. #BlackHistoryMonth

Donald Trump is trying to block trillions of dollars in federal funds to Meals on Wheels, Medicaid, and other critical programs that keep us safe and healthy. If allowed to go into effect, this would wreak havoc across the country. Tell Congress: Trump cannot be allowed to defund our communities.

Republicans have been ordered by their billionaire Puppet Master to end Medicare as we know it. Democrats have 215 members in the House who can stop this extreme effort. All we need is three House Republicans to join us.
