Dr Oz: "You'll notice, President Trump, these are discounted from $242 to $10. I don't know what the math is on that. We can't even calculate it. It's too high to calculate."

I talked to my older divorced parents on the phone this week. My mom is a liberal and asked if I was going to a No Kings rally. My dad watches Fox News and brought up how amazing it was that Trump finally brought peace to the Middle East.

Remember everyone who was rushing to give credit to the Peace Man for his MIDDLE EAST BREAKTHROUGH and what it says about them

They think they can blame Dems on the skyrocketing healthcare prices and it just doesn't seem like that's going to stick. Especially when this is the only think Dems are talking about in the shutdown.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Remember when one of the biggest scandals of the Obama years was that the IRS was going after conservative groups (which they didn't even do)?

Keith Boykin @keithboykin.bsky.social · 20h

After weaponizing the Justice Department to go after his enemies, Trump now plans to turn the IRS on them as well. This is one of the abuses of power cited in the July 1974 articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon.

Is there any data that Trump helping out Argentina is actually going to help his loser friend even win reelection?

The entire budget for USAID for FY2024 was $35 billion, and it was keeping millions of the world's poorest people fed and alive. Trump just sent $40 billion to Argentina to prop up the fascist chainsaw freak in his upcoming election.
