The GOP convicted felon has launched a war on the American people & our constitution. We have guardrails to stop a rogue president. But are our lawmakers? Happy to be part of it & obey, in the foolish belief that THEY will be spared. Wait for the final irony. #Opposition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

#DemVoice1 #ProudBlue Congratulations, Republican lawmakers: You may save your career (for now) by torturing your soul to defend the indefensible. Decades later, will you smile knowing you did the right thing and served people well? Save your honor now.

Roy Cohn and Trump were lovers. The soviets knew. Trump is the most dishonest person on the planet, especially to himself.

Yes, cut off his money-source (which are governmental contracts, in case you didn't know; it's also amplified by the stock market of course, but only because it has an influx of money in large part by the government). The US made Musk that rich. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHIp...

We’re hearing from multiple sources that center directors at CDC and/or NIH may be let go tomorrow. We are hoping this is just a rumor- passionate, dedicated leadership is needed during this time. We’ll keep you updated as we learn more.

It is this simple: Trump sold US to Musk for $300 million in cash & $20+ billion in stock-based wealth. Musk is gutting US for $100's of billions in stock-based wealth. They are doing horrible things to innocent people to distract US from their toxic mix of corruption & incompetence.

"When reporters called this out, the DOGE team made a fascinating choice. Instead of fixing their error, they actually removed the correct document from their website and replaced it with the old, incorrect one. They are now deliberately posting false information to support the narrative."

I’m furious with Republicans who betray this country without consequence. 🤬 I refuse to stay silent while they grovel before Trump and sell out everything America stands for. So I’m picking up the phone. I’m calling them directly. And I’m not holding back. 1/4

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family. By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

a lot of people want to not be held responsible for slavery and indigenous genocide but want to hold onto the generational wealth and preferential structures resulting from them. I mean, I know it's obvious but I think it should probably get said out loud a lot more often

Not sure what the issue is with him but in the last few years he has gone from inarticulate to incoherent. Drugs are one possible explanation, or insomnia from stress, or who knows. But he looks and sounds terrible, and it is just impossible not to feel that there is something deeply wrong with him.
