Imagine lying as easily as @RepTimBurchett does. Nobody is paying the millions of people who will be out there.

Wanting better for your country isn’t hating it, Tim. Quite the opposite. It’s real patriotism. 🇺🇸

Throwing out the constitution to cling to power is the real hating your country.

I thought today was the day George. I heard all kinds of banging and i thought the celebrations had started, turned out to only be the trash men pounding some cans. I still remain optimistic

Luckily my father made it back from landing on Omaha Beach and then fighting in the battle of the bulge. If he didn't make it back i wouldn't be here . Sorry about your father George.

MIKE DAVIS IS A CLOSE ALLY OF DONALD TRUMP'S "CIVIL RIGHTS" LAWYER & A FORMER CLERK OF SCOTUS JUSTICE NEIL GORSUCH. THE GOP & MAGA NO LONGER EDIT THEMSELVES THEY SCREAM THE QUIET PARTS OUT LOUD. DISGUSTING, BIGOTED & IGNORANT. BTW IZZY CLIPPED THIS BEFORE MIKE DAVIS DELETED IT.

SO SHARE EVERYWHERE!

REPREHENSIBLE! 🤬

On the very day the Supreme Court is poised to gut the Voting Rights Act, Mike Davis — a former clerk to Justice Neil Gorsuch and close ally of Trump’s top “civil rights” lawyer Harmeet Dhillon — calls the first Black House Minority Leader a “house slave.”

VILE!

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

I think their aim is to go back closer to 1760 than 1860 Seth.

NEVER FORGET: House & Senate GOP & Donald Trump (the MAJORITY) blame Democrats for not capitulating, INSTEAD of negotiating for ACA Subsidies! Speaker Mike Johnson sent the House GOP home, WHICH MEANS: the GOP & TRUMP NEVED intended to negotiate. Changes to the bill would be SENT back, to the HOUSE!

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Joe Cat is not a religious cat but if Jesus was a real person, living today he would be living among the homeless, he would love unconditionally all, he would reject all violence and he would care deeply for all living creatures. A huge difference from Rep white Jesus prosperity gospel!

I just want to bring one thing to everybody's attention. Next year. Marjorie Taylor Greene is up for re-election, and the fact that she has changed her public views about a number of items. But I learned one thing as a kid, if you're a snake, when the sun rises, you are still a snake when it sets.

Don't ever give up hope. No matter how bad things get you need to hope that tomorrow will bring a better day.
