We have to remember that the
Liar in Chief is lying to...
everybody.
Retribution... is HIS promise.
We shouldn't be tempted act the same way!

“The people at the top — the Elon Musks, the Rupert Murdochs, and the Donald Trumps of the world — they work so hard to keep us angry and divided because our unity is a threat to their power.”

(If you want to find out who really HATES America... watch what trump is doing... instead of listening to what he's spewing!)

Rep. Jamie Raskin @raskin.house.gov · 3h

Trump says that, with his illegal mass layoffs, he’s closing “Democrat programs.” But programs like Social Security, education for children with disabilities, & clean water enforcement work for all Americans. If you want to repeal them, send a bill to Congress; if not, hands off.

'Speaker' Johnson do your job.
(Stop being 'Liar' Johnson. End your shutdown. Let's have no more
of your bearing false witness for your false, orange, god!)

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 15h

They’re freaking out!!!

Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.”

The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this.

See you Saturday.

(Same old lies, from you, trump!
Come out into the streets on Saturday! See the signs for yourself! The world is different from the crap that your handlers are feeding you.)

(p.s. They ALL want your job... !)

(Talk to the people. Ask them what they want!)

No one thought he could win once
No one thought he could win twice
No one believed he’d get away with it
No one believed he’d be on the ballot
No one accepted the grim reality
No one accepted he’d destroy humanity
No one was prepared for this
No one is stopping it

WE are the last line of defense

(I think that there's a news
headline within these 3 sentences. We should be pointing this out
during the MANY kidnappings being ordered by these MAGA gang members/terrorists every day!)

(Their affinity for projection
seems to be massively
pathological.)
