So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Raw Story @rawstory.com · 1d

President Donald Trump was ramping up another round of trade salvos with China, but now he appears to be looking for a way to back down and make nice, wrote the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial board — and the feeling looks mutual.

Uh, no, Donald. YOU WERE THE PRESIDENT ON JANUARY 6TH, NOT JOE BIDEN.

WillofthePeopleRtC @willofthepeoplertc.bsky.social · 1d

So here's an image of a sick man's tweet as he lies to smear Joe Biden. How could Biden place 274 FBI agents in the Jan 6 crowd when he wasn't the president on that date, but DJT was? Trump is poisoning the brains of people who don't think or focus on TRUTH. He's a real hard core psychopath.

BREAKING: OMG! Pete Hegseth just got busted getting BOTOX SHOTS after demanding the troops be more manly!
He had a makeup studio installed in the Pentagon so he can look good on camera.

Pete, if you’re gonna get gender-affirming surgery, stop harassing those far better than your alcoholic ass.
