Just your average American concerned for our country and our earth.
We all remember when Trump repeated from the poem The Snake, "You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in”
Yet the R's still took him in.

In case you thought you were safe bc you aren't one of his currently identified enemies to kidnap and deport, take a look at this line:
"and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country..."
No one is safe when a bully is in charge.

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.
Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.
They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

Donald Trump incited an insurrection on J6. He should never have been able to run for public office again. What a failure of justice to not hold this man accountable.

I volunteer for a charity that feeds children in low income households and while we refrain from political talk, many of my fellow volunteers have made comments here and there. All of them were values of democrats. It shows me that progressives are the ones that care for one another.

In previous years foreign tourists spent around $200 billion in the US. With these fees, Trump is telling people we don't want their money and to stay home. Tourism is one vital piece to our economy and he's blowing it.
In addition, foreign visitors without an annual pass will be hit with a new $100 surcharge each time they visit one of the 11 most-visited parks, including Yosemite, Yellowstone, Rocky Mountain, and the Grand Canyon, on top of the regular entrance fee.

Okay, so would we say supporting MAGA is now one of those outsourced jobs that “Americans don’t want to do?”
Dozens of major accounts masquerading as “America First” or “MAGA” proponents -- like IvankaNews and MAGANationX -- have been identified as originating in places such as Eastern Europe, Russia, India, and Nigeria.

Agree. The tradition of former presidents not criticizing sitting presidents is null and void. Trump is not and never will be normal. His presidency is a malignant tumor on American democracy and should be called out at every turn. W. Bush needs to speak up and condemn him.
I live in MidlandTexas.
Home of the Bush family.
I associate with the Democratic Party.
I always respected the Bush family while disagreeing with them politically.
Their failure to speak up in this time in history has made me reevaluate my respect for them.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

This is the formula Fox uses also, as well as people like Ann Coulter. The more nasty they get the more the base loves them
The reason why so many foreigners pose as MAGA influencers is because the formula is pretty basic. Post:
1. Immigrants cause 90% of our problems.
2. The other 10% are trans people.
3. Trump is the greatest.
4. All Dems are Marxists who hate America.
5. All news is fake.

Two words: Budapest Memorandum
Trump's plan for ending Russia's war reportedly requires Ukraine to:
Give up vast parts of its territory, including areas Russia has failed to capture after years of war.
Cut its military in half.
Stop receiving U.S. lethal aid.
All in exchange for a Putin promise that Russia won't invade again.

Trump ratcheting up calls to murder Democrats is designed to both intimidate us into silence and incite violence by Trump's followers. Trump must be removed from office!

This deranged man is fine with his dangerous rhetoric. We could see that by how little he cared about the assassination of MN representative Melissa Hortman and her husband.
Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems that Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report that listed "the president" as the person making the threat.

The amount of corruption in the White House is at unconscionable levels. We need some real serious ethics across the federal government.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.
