Oh! What was that Trump Promise? AMERICA FIRST!
MAGA Fools! $Billion to Argentina bailout. But huge funding cuts for ACA & Medicare & Food for the poor. Fuck Trump & MGA Fools who put us here. By the way prices on groceries and merchandise has almost doubled since Trump ‘s Tariff driven inflation.

Entry Level White Collar jobs, bye bye! AI will take your jobs this time. Government jobs! No longer secure under Trump & project 2025 agency cuts. Time to learn a trade maybe? Good luck! Healthcare would be your only hope. Oh wait, Republicans are cutting ACA funding & Medicaid for millions.

I sure hope Adam Mockler’s popularity continues to grow. So for all you old school Democrats & Republicans looking for a voice of sanity, check out his podcasts on U-Tube & spread the word.

I’m 66 & I’m encouraged by a young political commentator Adam Mockler I can connect with. He articulates the progressive & moderate points of view on political issues so well. No lies, just truth & an extremely good understanding of our constitution & government. With NO personal religious views.

So True & Trump still repeatedly tells the big lie as he goes after those who were doing their job investigating unconstitutional actions of Trump’s 1st term. Trump & his administration continue to put us in constitutional crises by executive order while our 2 other branches of government concede

The sad fact is that Mockler, or any other progressive, can state facts to these extreme cult personalities & it doesn’t matter. Debating them changes nothing. The right wing, MAGA cult behavior is to keep repeating the lies over & over. It’s what their braindead followers hear & believe.

Mockler: I have spent all my formative years watching the President talk about the opposition party like they should not exist. His claim to fame in politics was saying that Obama was not born in America.

We can’t pay air traffic controllers during the shutdown, making us less safe, but we can send $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

Make it make sense.

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

That was the logic behind this thinking. But now that there is a vaccine to prevent infection & the spread to others it is totally illogical to not have our children vaccinated.

billseye.bsky.social @billseye.bsky.social · 1d

I also had both Mumps and Measles during the mid 60’s when no vaccines were available. The viruses were spreading like wildfire. Infection was almost inevitable. My cousin had the Measles during summer break from school. So my mother purposely exposed me so I would be over it & not miss any school.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.
