putin is a war criminal. i have no problem with the us president (or macron or scholz) talking with him. but under no circumstances should his crimes be normalized or white washed. what’s happening right now is a stain on the united states and its role in the world.

Here’s Rep. Morgan McGarvey checking in on a few of Trump's [broken] promises for working families — must’ve missed them in the Republicans' budget. But guess what IS in there? Ending Medicaid as we know it....to give tax breaks to the wealthy on the backs of the vulnerable. #HandsOffMyMedicaid

The uncomfortable truth is the "Trump campaigned on egg prices" thing is something Dems tell themselves to rationalize what happened in November. Trump actually campaigned on hate and abusing power -- and won! The sorry state of the American electorate is a difficult thing to come to terms with.

As if we didn’t already know, today trump put his racism front and center. Blame minorities for a crash disaster without evidence and before the bodies are recovered. Attack first and never take responsibility. MAGA, you asked for this.
