Biden kept, reinstated, and fought in court for Trump's awful immigration policies. Like Obama with ACA, the group he was trying to please was Republicans. And the results?

"Open borders Biden," a response removed from reality.

Also, open borders are not scary.

Right before Thanksgiving, Trump secretly commuted the sentence of David Gentile—a Ponzi schemer who stole over $1 billion from his clients—freeing him from prison after just *12 days.* This is another grotesque abuse of the pardon power that should outrage all Americans. youtube.com/shorts/xXNA1...

Perfect example of oligarch media trying to divide people. This implies older people have all the money, so you should be angry with them. But boomers aren't truly rich. In fact many are poor. It's the .1% oligarchs who are rich. They are the ones screwing us. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

The wealthiest generation holds more than $85 trillion in assets thanks to economic conditions Gen X, millennials and others would be hard-pressed to replicate.

Just a gentle reminder that Josh Shapiro signed Israeli bombs and wrote a whole racist paper arguing racistly that peace with Palestinians isn't possible because they aren't capable of it and only understand war.

This is who he's always been.

“As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich.”

This is also why we should not elect former prosecutors to Congress. If they didn’t serve justice as prosecutors, why should we expect them to do so in Congress.
As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. The grand jury’s refusal today to indict Letitia James shows this case should never have been brought.

When we flip the House, we will investigate everyone involved for abuse of power.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.

"...Newsom has vetoed our menopause bill, not one but two years in a row. But that's OK, because he's not going to be governor forever. And with the way he's overlooked women, half the population, by devaluing us in midlife, he probably should not be our next president either."

When you see people applauding Newsom, reply with a repost such as the one below or many, many others where Newsom shows his true colors. Use those bookmarks! Also, having his social media team post AI slop trolling Trump is nothing to really applaud anyway.
