Their idea of keeping America great is they get wealthier while everyone else loses the quality of life Americans have always known! If wealthy corporations and individuals paid their fair share of taxes, the deficit wouldn't be what it is.

With additional funding, the IRS has cracked down on wealthy tax evaders, improved customer service, and launched a free tax filing program. Who did Trump pick to lead the agency? A former House rep who sponsored legislation to dismantle it. Hello?

Done more in two weeks? He didn't do infrastructure in 4 years. He didn't come out with a healthcare plan or fix the antiquated immigration system. He passed tax cuts in 4 years. That's it. Grifting is all he has done successfully.

When John Bolton served as trumps National Security Adviser, he was Kash Patels boss. Bolton just compared Patels nomination to “Joseph Stalins secret police chief”. I’m so sick and f’king tired of people saying we’re overreacting!!

Trump will try to take credit for the massive investments made in manufacturing/tech under Biden and the Democrats. It's just like how he took credit for the economy he inherited from Obama. Do not let him get away with it.

Democrats will work across the aisle to address problems facing working Americans, but if Rs rubber stamp Trump's unpopular policies dismantling our government, we will not stand by. The GOP has total control over Congress and must deliver for the American people, not Trump.

NBC News is now reporting that Pete Hegseth's nomination is in peril. As many as 6 Senate Republicans, possibly more, are currently not supporting his bid as new revelations about his past continue to surface.

Noncompete clauses trap workers in jobs and make it harder for them to get better pay. It was a Trump-appointed judge who initially halted the FTC's ban after business groups (including Trump's tax adviser) sued to stop it. The Trump Admin is now expected to kill the ban.

Kash Patel, Trump's pick to run the FBI, endangered the lives of SEAL Team Six while serving as a counterterrorism official in 2020. He lied about obtaining flyover permission for the elite Navy team, and the Pentagon only found out after they were already in the air. www.nj.com/politics/202...

🚨🚨🚨 Last night, Sen. Mike Lee wrote a blueprint for destroying Social Security. Lee’s thread was quickly amplified by Elon Musk, who Donald Trump has put in charge of slashing our earned benefits. This is a declaration of war against seniors, people with disabilities, and the American public.

If he did, he should make sure he lists out all the crimes that Trump committed. All the details in the pardon order. Leave no stone unturned. If he did that my guess is that Trump would refuse it.

The nominee to take over the FBI has publicly published a list of innocent Americans he plans to target if given the power. This is more important than finger wagging about norms and traditions.

SCOTUS announced in 2023 that it would adopt a new code of ethics. But new reporting found that most of the conservative justices didn't want it to be enforceable. The code also doesn't include firm restrictions on gifts, travel, or real estate deals. Some ethics code, huh?

The CFPB is a shining example of efficiency, returning nearly $20 billion to the victims of financial fraud since 2011. Trump-supporting billionaires want to scrap the agency to pad their own pockets. Holding financial scammers accountable isn't inefficient — it's common-sense.

One year ago, Kash Patel, while sniffling repeatedly as he does in every interview (he just can’t shake that cold) promised to prosecute Hunter for new crimes. Then Trump names him FBI Director. He told you ahead of time he’s going after Hunter. So tired of the pearl clutchers.

Pete Hegseth, nominee for Sec Def: - zero experience - his own mother will not endorse him - not a single reputable member of the military has come forward to support his nomination - has a history of sexual assault, financial mismanagement and being drunk on the job You're all caught up.

Republicans already lying that this pardon was about Joe and Ukraine when Hunter’s criminal case had nothing to do with those charges which could never be proven, while legacy media and Never Trumpers are too preoccupied clutching their pearls to set the record straight on that.

Wait until all these young men who polls say want kids discover they might need to sideline their careers and accept lower paying positions with more flexibility in order to have them We’ll see how much they want kids when it’s their job to actually care for them and hold down a professional career
