So they’re trying to build a new ballroom at the White House. I tell ya, the last time people were this against ball room was when my wife tried sewing my slacks!

FACT: In July, Marsha Blackburn voted for the largest cut to SNAP in the history of the program.

Now, 700,000 TN children, seniors & people w/ disabilities are going to miss meals and she’s pretending to care b/c she’s running for Governor.

She thinks your too dumb to remember

Like WAAAAY too many Americans.

Got a “bro you need to chill out” response after a short rant on the recent events a week or so ago.

How TF can you listen to things like that speech to generals or rampant snatching of ppl without any evidentiary requirement and be calm?!

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

“This has NOTHING to do with the SHUTDOWN. The law REQUIRES and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption.

So that is a DECISION the president is making on his own to ALLOW people to go HUNGRY." - Senator Peter Welch on SNAP Cuts

No.

Words like that are **opinions**. Literally protected under the First Amendment.

Treason is not defined as “anything that hurts the President’s feelings”.

It makes one ponder:

At what point does a Supreme Court Justice cross the line from upholding the Constitution to committing treason? And, how is accountability handled when the ruling favors the sitting executive.

So many questions, so many once in a generation events, so little time.

Do you want more authoritarian BS? Because that’s how you get more authoritarian BS.

Consider: Has 1 candidate actively supported (or remained silent in face of) the current administration’s rampant efforts to move the US from a democratic state to an authoritarian state? THEN VOTE FOR THE OTHER!

Kevin M. Kruse @kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 1d

I cannot believe there are still people in my mentions arguing that boycotting an election because the candidates aren’t addressing your issue is a way to get them to pay attention.

Post by Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump on Truth Social:

The United States has more Nuclear Weapons than any other country. This was accomplished, including a complete update and renovation of existing weapons, during my First Term in office. Because of the tremendous destructive power, I HATED to do it, but had no choice! Russia is second, and China is a distant third, but will be even within 5 years. Because of other countries testing programs, I have instructed the Department of War to start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis. That process will begin immediately. Thank you for your attent this matter! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Pedo protector Tom Barrett knows this is the Trump Shutdown.

T.J. Ferguson @thatprivacyguy.bsky.social · 27d

This is the kind of messaging boils my blood. Barrett isn’t devoid of brain cells, and yet, he insists in partisan messaging that the MINORITY party (Democrats) in both House and Senate are the culprits.

When your party holds majority across all 3 branches and a measure fails IT IS B/C YOU FAILED.

Screenshot of an email from Michigan congressional representative Tom Barrett:

Government Shutdown Resources

Dear Tj,

Despite my vote to keep it open, the federal government shut down overnight after Senate Democrats blocked bipartisan legislation that would fund the government until November 21. Now, rather than pass this straightforward solution that will pay American troops and federal employees, Democrats are proposing a different plan that could provide free taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants and eliminate $50 billion in funding for rural hospitals.

I want to know what you think. Do you support shutting down the federal government over these unrelated policies?
Yes, this is worth shutting down the government.
No, the Senate should pass the bipartisan bill to open the government.
Unsure or undecided.

Please know I am encouraging my colleagues to do the right thing and put an end to this shutdown. In the meantime, my team and I remain available to assist you. Here are a few important updates about government operations during this lapse in funding.

My Offices

My offices in Lansing and Washington, D.C., will remain open and operational for the duration of the shutdown. If you need help with a government agency or want to share your opinion, please contact my office by calling 517-993-0510 or filling out my online help form.

Unfortunately, responses from federal agencies may be delayed until normal operations resume. Please know my staff and I are doing everything we can to help get the answers you deserve. Additionally, we regret that we are unable to accept White House or U.S. Capitol tour requests while the government is closed. However, if you are planning to travel to Washington at this time, my office will be open to visitors.

Bessent is a soybean farmer the same way Trump is a master builders.

(Eg. Both pay the actual workers to do the work and then claim all the prestige for the finished product.)

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 4d

From his perch as a long-time global currency trader on Wall Street, Bessent also invested $25 million in Midwest land, which he leases out to actual farmers. He is not a “soybean farmer.” bsky.app/profile/atru...
