If you no longer have health insurance or if your insurance costs are skyrocketing, ask the Republicans why they cut Medicaid and eliminated the subsidies for the ACA! And if you voted for them, ask yourself why.

I support presidents who faithfully execute the duties of their office, upholding the constitution and laws of this democracy, while guiding their own actions with morality, intelligence, competence and compassion for all the people .

Pushing for a cease fire so you can look good in a genocide you specifically enabled, at the same time as you’re assaulting your own democracy & waging war on your own cities, is never going to get you a prize for peace. If there’s a prize for hypocrisy and narcissism though, you’ve got a real shot.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Thank you @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social for using my #ShowMeYourHellhole video of Portland!

@jimmykimmel.com is doing more to tell the truth about what #Portland looks like than the MSM & I'm forever grateful, even if this didn't turn out to be my big break 😉

Come visit Portland, we'll get TACOs!

We invited viewers living in the alleged post-apocalyptic wastelands of Chicago, Washington, Memphis, and Portland to show us their “hellholes” and we got a lot of videos from our friends in Portland - plus a very special report from the Governor of Illinois @JBPritzker! #ShowMeYourHellhole

This is the Trump regime.

A Republic If You Can Keep It @arepublicif.bsky.social · 1d

Protecting child rapists
Not raped children

Enriching billionaires
Starving children

Invading US cities
Not paying the military

Crashing the vaccine system
But getting vaccinated

They operate at a level of hypocrisy & immorality that shocks the conscience.

Please protest on 10/18
