What do I know and I'm not saying it's a magic bullet or anything like that but it sure seems to me that Dems should run hard on the Argentina bailout. Not anywhere near the worst thing Trump has done, but i suspect it's unusually clarifying.

Jeffries: "It's perplexing to us that Rs refuse to spend a dime to protect the healthcare of the American people, but somehow the Trump admin found $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina in ways that are also going to continue to hurt our soybean farmers in Iowa & the Midwest"

Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of The United States and if we don’t wake up we may not have a United States.”

UK banks oppose tax rise.

Falsely claim to be paying 46.4% tax rate.

The PwC generated number includes PAYE, employee national insurance which is paid by workers. VAT which is borne by customers.

Why do media reports not expose this sham claim?

Karly nails it!

The effort by the media to turn Trump into a heroic negotiating diplomat is revolting and everyone should be disgusted.

Trump does things for two reasons only.
Adoration or increase his wealth.

He doesn’t give a shit about anyone else.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

That's fine. Except MAGA will attempt to invalidate the results and use troops on the streets to suppress protests.

President Biden brought home 148 living hostages.
Just a reminder.
Very happy the last hostages are home. But never forget who saved the most souls.
