No one believes Tr*mp is running the country. It's the insane tech bro Oligarchs and powerful Christian Nationalist Society organizations in charge. This is who aims to destroy our democracy, and this is who we need to defeat

Trump and Johnson thought the Senate Democrats would cave, but because We the People got loud after the CR debacle in March, they've held the line - and republicans don't know what to do with people power.
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.

“There’s too many Americans on SNAP!”

Yes there are. Too many corporations refuse to pay a living wage.

Huge companyies are encouraging their employees to apply for SNAP because they don’t pay them enough to survive.

The government encourages this & then blames the poor.

This chimes with what I've been hearing.

“Our negotiators had never seen this before in any international talks. People being summoned to the U.S. Embassy in London — intimidation, threats of cessation of business, threats of family members losing visas."

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?"

Newsom: "This is a historically unpopular president. His policies are even more unpopular than him. In every core category he's underwater. He who promised to make us healthier & wealthier & we're poorer and sicker ... He knows he's lose midterms so he's trying to rig it before 1 vote is cast"

Russians even slip up when spewing their own propaganda.

Countless videos and witness testimony of Russia shooting civilians at various places in Ukraine.

They’re not redistricting — they’re preparing the battlefield. If Trump gets 5 extra seats in Congress, he’ll have the votes to declare emergency rule in any city that dares to dissent. #Prop50VoteYes
