Perfectly innocent, right?

True.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

AOC has the right idea. Corporate welfare costs us $92 billion, the top 1 percent will receive an average tax cut of more than $60,000 in 2025, and it is estimated that extending his 2017 tax cuts will cost $11 trillion over 10 years. Let’s work on getting rid of the waste that is already there.

Working class Americans live 6 years shorter lives than the wealthy. Doctors believe economic stress is a major factor in that disparity. I asked Americans to describe how stress impacts their lives & well-being. The responses were heartbreaking. Here are some of them:

I know veterans who voted for Trump. Maybe they really are suckers?

Nothing to see here, folks. Nope. Move along. These aren't the racists you're looking for. www.texasobserver.org/ice-prosecut...

Sen. John Curtis, other Republicans distance themselves after Trump calls Zelensky a ‘dictator’. Are we finally starting to grow a spine? Come on republicans let’s stop this madness. We need you now more than ever before he destroys 250 years of work. REPOST

People pay into Social Security all of their work lives, now it's 6.2% of your wages up to $176,100. Once you hit the mark of $176.1K per year, they now longer take out SS taxes. If there wasn't that maximum and people could pay 6.2% of everything, they earn a year, SS would remain solvent. Forever!

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

Trump and Elon have unleashed people become the worst cruelest versions of themselves. www.latintimes.com/11-year-old-...

I feel numb by the news surrounding Ukrainian 🇺🇦 being "voluntold" or subjugated to... Slava Ukraini

I normally scoff at conspiracy theories, but this one is more plausible than most.

This makes trump a King and a Dictator. Needless to say, It is as unConstitutional as F...! Impeach and Arrest trump, Musk, and Vance RIGHT NOW!

He's feeling confident enough to say out loud exactly what we've accused him of for years. And there will be exactly zero Republican pushback.

Trump was demanding reparations from Ukraine larger than Germany had to pay. www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/f5be6b1...

This USA and Russia discussing Ukraine without inviting Ukraine is exactly like the USA and Nazi Germany discussing Britain's surrender without inviting them.

Trump is a Russian stooge.

Russia invaded Ukraine, not the other way around. Stop blaming Ukraine for russian invasion!

Who has really sacrificed most to help Ukraine.

Trump once again blames Ukraine for starting the war. Trump blames Ukraine for invading Ukraine. Sure, tell me Trump isn’t working for Putin. Tell me he’s not a Russian asset. Go ahead. www.mediaite.com/tv/shocking-...

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

What in the dictatorial fuck is this?? www.youtube.com/watch?v=2az6...

[T]he plan delivered to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy last week would "amount to the US economic colonization of Ukraine, in legal perpetuity" ... So, it's another grift. What a surprise. www.rawstory.com/trump-ukrain...

1. Meta removed a Facebook ads criticizing Elon Musk's efforts to seize Americans' private information through DOGE. A notice from Meta said the ads violated its rules on "Unacceptable Business Practices."

The GOP is adamant, That everyone should crawl, They won't stand up for freedom, And support Putin breaking laws, They won't support our allies, Honor treaties and deals we've signed, The only two things they care about, Are their bank account and its size.
