Make America Great Depression Again!

Where J.D. Vance Gets His Weird, Terrifying Techno-Authoritarian Ideas newrepublic.com/article/1839... via @newrepublic.com

Last night was basically what we have seen before, except this time the GOP lacks anyone willing to do anything but dutifully stand and clap like its Kim Jung Un’s birthday. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/trump-lies...

House Democrats are unified in our opposition to the largest Medicaid cut in American history. We only need three Republicans to join us in order to stop it.

NEW: Immigrants illegally in the United States pay about $60 billion in federal taxes. Guess what happens to that revenue when Trump starts using IRS data to target them for deportation. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-irs-...

Sen. Sanders: This is a government that could care less about ordinary Americans and working families.We are no longer moving toward oligarchy. We are living in an oligarchic society.

President Trump promised to deal with consumer costs and inflation, but we got no ideas tonight on how he’s going to make life more affordable for average Americans. Instead, he’s proposing things that will increase costs. (1/2)

Some thoughts after the joint address…

Trump: “Rule of unelected bureaucrats is over…”except for Elon Musk who is taking an ax to key services with no accountability #jointaddress

Kennedy Center chairman Trump is about to tell a lot of lies about the fear and chaos that he’s causing with President Musk. But tonight isn’t about Trump or Musk — it’s about the Republicans who are hiding from their constituents while enabling the Trump-Musk coup. 🧵

“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down starting on day one.” That’s what Trump promised. But you won’t you hear him say that tonight. Inflation has gone up Energy prices are up Egg prices are up 15% Housing costs are up And so much more Democrats will keep fighting for you.

@murray.senate.gov I am a resident of Washington State for 35 years. Originally from the USA territory of Puerto Rico and I am asking you to support Puerto Rico to be the State 51st of USA. Last November, Puerto Ricans voted for Statehood and won by 57 percent.The bill is ready. Support it please!

www.yahoo.com/news/doge-we... Real quality work. DOGE should follow their own policies and fire themselves with all the mistakes they’re making.

Tell em, Madam Secretary 🔥

They say we should have grace. I say when you fuck around, you find out. The farmers have found out biggly and are now regretting their vote.

Donald Trump is tanking the economy in real time. There is a better way. House Democrats will continue to put the American people first.

It’s amazing to me how much the republicans in office have changed their views on what it is to be Americans. To follow Trump as he undermines democracy and not having the decency to stand against his treasonous actions is appalling. You all need to find your courage and honor your oath of office!

Liz Cheney: “Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Elon Musk have made clear who they are. Only fools—or Kremlin tools—would abandon NATO, side with Russia, and demand Ukraine surrender in the face of Putin’s brutal aggression.” REPOST if you stand with Cheney against Donald Trump!

🚨BREAKING: The Trump Administration has officially paused all U.S. military aid to Ukraine, abandoning our allies as they face a Russian invasion. REPOST if you stand with President Zelenskyy against Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin!

Fuck Trump!🤥

Former Capitol police officer Michael Fanone when confronting Proud Boys insurrectionist Enrique Tarrio: “You are a traitor to this country.” RETWEET if you stand with Officer Fanone!

Absolutely! 💙💙

"The reality is that Republicans are doing Democrats’ work for them by lining up behind the least popular agenda that you could imagine. Far from Trump trying to set his own party up for success moving forward, he’s instead dragging them down by forcing them to back policies that Americans despise."

constitution.congress.gov/browse/amend... Apply the Constitution of USA On Trump. He is in REBELLION of our Constitution by getting closer to our ENEMY, RUSSIA. Also, he initiated an insurrection. January 6th, not forgotten!Now, he is dismantling our Federal Agencies! He is against our Government.

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.
