the people who told you to calm down about Roe are the same people telling you to calm down about Social Security, in case you hadn't noticed

They’re saying it out loud now. Call your reps. Show up at their offices. SS and Medicare will be fully funded when the rich pay their fair share.

In case you didn’t know, the flow of fentanyl and other illicit drugs from the US into Canada is significantly higher than the flow from Canada into the US.

I didn’t hear Trump say one word about what he was going to do about the cost of groceries and housing last night. Not one idea to make life better for us. No talk of lowering drug prices, insurance rates or about lowering the interest rates ( although the tariff-driven recession might do that).

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy. All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

Trump isn’t cutting waste and abuse. He’s cutting programs that help regular people - like Medicaid - to fund tax cuts for billionaires and corporations. He only closes agencies that were stopping his rich friends bilk consumers.

“Decorum in the House!” from the party that pardoned their buddies who beat cops, shit on the floor, wiped with the curtains and dragged a Confederate flag through the halls of Congress. #SOTU

Trump's "golden age of America" so far... -Inflation ⬆️ -Stock market ⬇️ -Thousands of layoffs -Consumer & worker protections gutted -Diseases spreading -Federal funding illegally frozen -$10 million+ spent on golf -An unelected billionaire lining his pockets at our expense

Trump didn't win 50% of the popular vote. The GOP has slim margins in both the House and Senate. His approval ratings are tanking. He does not have a mandate. Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful. He's not.

People keep pushing a Democratic boycott of tonight's SOTU, as if cameras will linger in enthrallment over empty seats and the media will make it the big story tomorrow. They won't. Walking away is an empty, performative gesture, a "Not my president" bumper sticker. We're in crisis. Show up for it.

#TraitorTrump lifting sanctions & seized Russian property is proof he is working for them not us & our allies! Russia will take all seized assets, sell them & continue funding their war on Ukraine & use the fact that TRUMP’S FBI, NSA et al are taken over by his fellow R assets so we never vote again

As usual Dems can’t get it together. Some are boycotting . Some are planning to disrupt the speech. Some are bringing fired federal workers with them. And Carville is telling them to roll over and play dead. WTFH.

Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." This is absolute rubbish. Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American for 85 years. Perhaps the bigger "ponzi scheme" is the $38 billion spent by taxpayers to prop up his corporations?

It’s wild how, after everything that went down between Zelensky, Trump, and Vance, conservative influencers went dead silent, some for hours. Then, almost like clockwork, they all started parroting the same nonsense.

Just so we are clear - the reason why JD Vance has constantly refused to go to Ukraine is because he is a coward. He would NEVER go there and meet with their soldiers or talk with their leaders. Because their courage and integrity would show him for what he is - a sniveling jerk.

This moment is going in the history books as the moment the US became irrelevant as a global power and ushered in the start of world war 3. Zelenskyy exposed the traitors.

Not only have I never been more ashamed of my country than I am today, I've never been more ashamed of and disgusted by the White House Press Corp. Not a single one of them had the guts and principles to stand up to him about defending Putin and blaming Ukraine for the war. They are pathetic.
