Egg prices as of Feb 22, 2025. Why hasn't Trump lowered the egg prices? Is he too old? Too feeble to remember? Is he busy bullying Governors and plotting to steal Ukraine minerals?

Gov. Janet Mills Refused To Be Bullied By Trump: Nothing warms my democracy-loving heart more than a government official standing up to Donald Trump. Even more so when it’s a woman whose spunk gets under his thin skin. Here’s Gov. Janet Mills sounding not one itsy-bit intimidated by President…

We’ve been lied to by the entire GQP, 47, Congress, AND now Musk. They weave an alternative reality that the rethuglicans believe in. Thanks to Fox News, CNN, OAN, and NewsMax. They owe us our democracy back!
