Never refer to Trump’s collection of sycophants as his “Administration”. It’s more accurately “The Trump Regime”:More authoritarian, focused on structure & authority rather than the practical execution of government functions. #TrumpRegime #TrumpAuthoritarianRegime #NotDemocracy

A VERY Stable Genius

The House passed the SAVE Act, which will make it much more difficult for millions of American citizens to register to vote. It’s time to start campaigning for the Senate to reject it. The Capitol switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Ask to be connected to your members’ office. Joyce Vance

Watching the interview & it’s heartbreaking. It’s also very angering. I hate Trump. I hate hating. Watching this disastrous administration turning this country against its allies is yet another reminder that Trump is a deranged agent of evil. www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine...

Pathetic.

An innocent man was “mistakenly” taken and sent to a foreign prison. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 he must be brought home — yet he’s still there. Every day this administration shows just how vile and lawless it remains. Bring him home!

From Fox Business analyst, after Howard Lutnick said this morning on the Sunday shows that the tariff exemptions on tech were only temporary.

Listen to Congressman Greg Casar from Texas CD35 He Is TAKIING ON DOGE & ELON MUSK.... Musk gets $8million a day Please follow this FIERCE FIGHTER IN CONGRESS @gregcasar.bsky.social I WANT TO CLONE HIM House Democrats that are rising up

80million people 🤬

Jesus wasn't white. Donald Trump is not a Christian. Trickle-down is a lie. Brown people aren't stealing your jobs. Billionaires don't give a damn about you. Eggs and gas aren't going to get cheaper. WAKE. UP.

Watch Mike Johnson lie with a straight face—swearing Trump & MAGA won’t touch Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid. Then watch Gov. JB Pritzker torch that nonsense with facts: Congress *just* passed a budget slashing $880 BILLION from 1 or all of them. Protest. Pressure. Every. Damn. Day.

Make Habeas Corpus Real: You Have Garcia’s Body, President Bukele. Now Bring Him Home, Hopefully Alive and Well.

Trump’s tariffs are hitting farmers hard — in ways you might not expect. This honey farmer voted for Trump 3X — now costs are through the roof, hiring’s frozen, and he’s lost $150K in government contracts. Asked if he regrets his 2024 vote? “Perhaps I should’ve considered other options.” NO SHIT!

Comment from a NYT’s reader: Through its own actions DOGE is redefining the meaning of "waste, fraud, and abuse."

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

"The envy of the world," that was the title of the Economist article published on Oct. 19th, 2024 - less than 6 mos ago. ONE MAN HAS DESTROYED THAT! WHY? If something is working, you may improve upon it, but you don't destroy it. 🗣️Remind those you know off Bsky!! www.economist.com/weeklyeditio...

And remember, factories aren’t built in a day.

If passed, the SAVE ACT would create particular burdens for military voters, low-income voters, elderly voters, rural voters, and tens of millions of married women who have changed their names. Call your senators! Tell them to vote NO! Hands Off Her Vote! #MomSky

So the SSA, (@altssa.altgov.info) would know better. But I KNOW, for sure, that IRS is rejecting taxpayers returns because SSA has reported to IRS that the taxpayers are dead. The dead people are calling IRS asking why. Doge-bags strike again.

Here's the webpage put up by the office of Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes for people to notify her office if they're havig problems dealing with Social Security. Every state AG's office could do this. Might help. www.azag.gov/socialsecurity

Secretary Cosplay has watched too many episodes of the TV show Cops. What a joke she is.

No one’s talking about killing Musk. Post is prophetic. The last sentence perfectly describes DOGE & Trump, Musk, Vought, Miller, Lutnick, Hegseth, Gabbard, Patel, Bondi & so many more. Bad people doing bad things. DoGE hasn’t found fraud or corruption. #TrumpMentalDecline #TrumpHasNoFriends

I don’t believe he has a clue what he’s signing when he signs these things. He’s Vought, Miller and Lutnick’s puppet Trump can’t even sit up straight in a chair. He’s always hunched over with the desk supporting his upper body.

Is this legal? Can “I shoot dogs” Noem just pluck any old fan off the streets & deputize them to participate in an arrest? Hope the arrestees don’t end up being arrestable and that they sue these two for millions. Noem has taken Cosplay to the next level with this stunt.

But, but,but… Trump said “negotiations” @ the highest level on Sat. WTF? Trump is so out of touch with his special emissaries he can’t even talk about it without lying through his pie hole? I get the feeling Trump knows NOTHING and just does what Vought, Miller & Lutnick tell him 2 do.#pathetic

China just announced 84% tariffs on the US. There is no winner in a global trade war. This isn’t a negotiation, it’s an economic pissing contest that is going to ruin the economies of several nations if people don’t get their shit together.

Moskowitz: When President Zelenskyy came to the White House, we heard a lot about what he was wearing. Oh my God, the precious Oval Office—he didn’t wear a suit! I mean, here’s a picture of Kid Rock in the Oval Office—he looks like he’s about to jump over 10 buses on the White House lawn.

1. @LeaderJohnThune @SpeakerJohnson Americans watch in dismay as vital government services agencies are eliminated or decimated. I have yet to hear or read anything about reducing the spending related to Congress: no cuts, no layoffs, no elimination of perks.

😕🇺🇸

@judiciarygop.bsky.social TIME TO IMPEACH

The resistance is growing.

You can’t make this ignorant shit up. Lutnick isn’t fit to be secretary of the local kennel club.

Just a reminder: impeachment can begin with a simple majority in the House

Mike Johnson is telling the second biggest lie in history: Trump built the greatest economy in history, second only to “The 2020 election was stolen… Trump won!” Johnson should have his mouth washed out with soap!

Please take the time to read this Understand THE STAFF THAT OVERSEES CONTRACTS for Medicaid and Medicare CLAIMS has been fired This will delay the process of CLAIMS to be paid Thank you, Rebekah This is information everyone must know Yes this is very bad
