The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me.

He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits…

…while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

NEW from me:

Political hostility, high visa fees and (in the case of the UK) stagnant incomes are making the UK and US less attractive destinations for top international talent.

That steep decline in the appeal of moving to the US after 2016 is 👀

I certainly do think it will be interesting to watch how many Republicans who refused to sign the petition end up voting to release the files when it comes to the floor to cover their asses back home. I will guess 5-10.

‘Nobody thought it was going to last this long’: Trump increasingly frustrated as shutdown approaches record length

White House officials, at the start of the shutdown, were certain the Trump administration was better positioned to battle the left during a funding lapse.

I truly believe, that if those right-wing traitors keep their filthy hands out of our elections (integrity), we could prevail!
But they’re trying everything to beat the system.

Mike Johnson has the House adjourned for 42 days, Trump just came back from a week in Asia, remodeled a WH bathroom and flew to Palm Beach for a golf weekend, they refuse to negotiate with Dems, Dems had to sue to get Trump to release SNAP funds, but Republicans are blaming Dems.

The GOP campaigned on "We are better at government than the Democrats"

Enough voters believed them and gave them the keys to the government.

And now its "Its all Democrats' fault that we suck at governing"
