A shocking report that pervasive racism has been discovered in the Republican Party.

I'm not watching 60 minutes because I'm sure it's a fluff piece. CBS bent the knee. Also, I'm sure Trump simply will not do interviews anymore that he won't screen for. They will have to be pre approved questions. You can't ask the dictator anything he doesn't like. Did I get that right? #60minutes

Q: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?"

Trump: "No. I think they haven't gone far enough”

The left gets castigated in the media for saying the folks starving Americans are deplorable.

The right starves their voters and it is just normal politics.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

You are not a patriot if you have contempt for people who use SNAP benefits to eat while simultaneously not caring about a $300 million dollar ballroom, you are exactly what they molded you to be, a pawn in their game to divide us and enrich themselves. Congratulation, you lose.

Speaker Johnson: Federal employees aren’t being paid. Nutrition cuts may cause children to go hungry. Millions are seeing their health premiums soar.

End the 6 week paid vacation you’ve taken. Join your Democratic colleagues and negotiate an end to this shutdown.

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

The law requires Trump to continue to fund SNAP.

Instead, he's trying to steal food from the mouths of hungry children.

Don't tug my heartstrings. Zero sympathy for this woman. She watched her husband KNOWINGLY tell lie after lie. The GOP is the party of protecting pedophiles and philanderers, the furthest thing from "family values". The dude they voted for is in the #EpsteinFiles and has had multiple affairs.

Today’s far right may know it’s wrong to talk about a “superior race,” so it just frames it as a “superior culture” instead:

But now he has immunity (which he didn’t before), has installed civilian leadership at the Pentagon and DOJ who will refuse him nothing, and is in the process of purging senior military and DOJ careerists who might stand up to them.

He did everything he possibly could to overturn the election & stay in power - threatening his VP, Govs & Secs of States, organizing a mob to storm the Capitol. He knew if he ordered a military coup they would’ve refused & he would’ve been tried for treason. That’s why he left.
