If you think I am too angry or too political, well…I will be like that for the next few years. At least Biden gave me a break. Thank you Joe.

I like Katie.

I still like Katie

Whoever orchestrated this campaign of nothing can fuck off.

I would also not write her off too soon.

I do like her because she is authentic and a fighter. Keep going lady

Billionaire corporations are already seeing the money roll in from the giant tax giveaways Donald Trump and the Republicans stuffed into their Big, Beautiful Bill.

What about working Americans? They're losing their health care, and their costs just keep going up.

It's shameful.

Anyone who paid attention during the campaign knew this was coming.

The major policy goal of this administration is to cause as much harm as possible to as many people as possible. They feel they get bonus points when they harm those most in need. www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

Old men’s pipe dreams by trying to turn the whole thing into a fake reality TV show with blablabla so that nobody realizes they are looting the country.

BBC News explain that because of Brexit, Brits will be photographed and have their fingerprints taken when going into the EU, as the UK now is a third country

BBC News forget to explain that the UK helped create these rules when we were part of the EU because we wanted stronger border control

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

The people who want violent protests to happen are Trump, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Pete Hegseth, Tom Homan, and other senior appointees in his admin. They are doing everything they possibly can to provoke people to violence and it is obvious that is what they hope for daily.

Imagine the scandal if anything like that happened during Biden

You can’t stop highlighting how insane and highly damaging it is to every single person in this country what Republicans are intentionally doing

The are living a criminal pipe dream and we all will have to suffer tremendously from it

Tariff money is not a Trump Regime slush fund. It is tax money deposited into the US treasury and Congress has sole authority over the appropriation of tax dollars.
