If the current administration was really worried about the deficit, they would forget about their proposed tax cuts for the wealthy, and then there would be enough revenues to pay down the deficit at least 4.5 trillion dollars, rather than increasing the deficit another 2.8 trillion dollars. See 2

I find it interesting the the man who told Pres. Zelenskyy “he had no cards to play” lost three casinos in Atlantic City.

Our peaceful trading partners aren't our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends - weakening our economy, our national security, & the entire free world - all while cynically waving the American flag.” -Ronald Reagan

Good morning, Bluesky! We travel a lot, and wherever we go, people ask us why Americans chose Trump for President. It is distressing, seeing how regular people throughout the world look at us in dismay and fear. They look to America to maintain peace and security. Now they’re not so sure…

If you voted Republican because you dislike socialism, then live your life honestly. Do not accept Social Security or Medicare. Avoid public beaches, parks and libraries. Do not allow your children to attend public school. Drive only on toll roads. Do not call 911 unless you pay for their services.

First day on Bluesky. Glad to see lots of old familiar faces! It is like a breath of fresh air and optimism. Thank you!

I appreciate a platform not owned and controlled by a greedy meglamaniac who has made it his mission to control the masses by controlling the news output. This is free speech, not the crap on X.

Hello Bluesky! I finally quit X, couldn’t stand it anymore. So glad to have found you! Whoever is responsible for this, thank you!
