A public service announcement to MAGAts: Trump hates you. All his appointments will make you poorer and your life more difficult.

Goodbye to consumer protections for canceled flights and children getting to sit next to parents who will help keep them quiet.

There should be ZERO tolerance for Nazis and Nazi sympathizers in American politics any where. My God, how low have we sunk when this has become remotely palatable?

Mike Johnson keeps saying that Democrats hate America

But I can’t think of anything more hateful to our country than refusing to swear in a duly elected representative to protect a pedophile or his president pal

Adelita Grijalva MUST be sworn in

Disqualified. We don't need a Nazi conservative mole in the Democratic party who will sink every Democratic initiative like Manchin, Sinema, and recently Festerman.

It’s past time to upgrade the criticism of @nytimes.com leadership from “sanewashing” to “democracywashing”.

“Democracy-washing”:
When news journalists / editors / media orgs present the news distorting the reality the US is no longer operating as constitutional democracy with rule of law.

This is a great target!!

Target the corporations that, Trump says, are paying for the ballroom.

Which corporate entities paid for the demolition of the White House as a bribe to the felon Donald Trump? We need names.

Brian Beutler @brianbeutler.bsky.social · 21h

“Can you imagine if Obama had bulldozed the W…” NO. We just need leaders who respond the way Republicans would have responded if Obama had bulldozed the White House to build himself a palace ballroom. Removal from office. Criminal prosecution. Confiscate Mar a Lago. Sell it to finance rebuilding.

Checked Chris Moynihan’s social media to see what he posts — he’s a fan of Alex Jones, Project Veritas, Juanita Broaddrick and the Redheaded Libertarian. And conspiracy stuff like this.

Moynihan is from Westchester County and is seen here on the dais on J6 with QAnon Shaman Jacob Chansley.
