I assume at some point we are going to get to see actual hard proof submitted in a sworn affidavit, grand jury indictment, congressional testimony, etc that millions of people are defrauding trillions from Social Security? Or is it just going to be social media posts & TV hits?

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

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

Trump is greedy, corrupt, cruel, idiotic and — worst of all — a fascist. Musk is greedy, corrupt, cruel, idiotic and — worst of all — a fascist. Any questions?

The very least Democrats could do at this point is hold a press briefing every single day to fact check every single lie from the orange felon, fascist GOP and his MAGA regime and hire Pete Buttigieg to deliver messaging.

$5K DOGE “Dividend” Is A Real Mind Twister. Let King Donald Explain It: I am praying that Paul Krugman, Robert Reich, or a chimpanzee with an abacus, will appear to help us figure out this latest financial mind phuque, fresh from Miami Beach. Donald is still in Florida, although expected to…
