I will vote for the Dem in 2028 who vows to put the WH back the way it was. Literally.

100% agree. I had an electrical contractor hired for a job. His guy showed up with a Trump sticker on his truck, and I asked him to leave the property. I explained to the contractor that I will not support anyone supporting this regime. We had words.
TL;DR, I found a new contractor.

Well, there goes Home Depot from my approved vendor list!

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

Threads post from julieceye

At my local Home Depot today in Evanston, IL. They abducted 5 people in my immediate area.

Health insurance costs jumped for workers & employers in 2025.

This will get worse if the GOP refuses to extend ACA subsidies.

Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024.

Still not sure we need Medicare for All?

Dude has lost his mind and/or been bought off by Trump and the #GOP. It's Joe Manchin all over again.

Remember what’s coming: first, kill Affordable Care credits, doubling costs for tens of millions; then, cut Medicare half a trillion (sleazily, automatically) hurting seniors; then cut Medicaid by a trillion, pounding doctors, hospitals and nursing homes. It’s why we fight.

Why are you voting in Trump judges? Questionable response on J6, limits of 2 terms for Presidents.

"During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in September, Mooty made his ideological stances known by refusing to provide a direct answer as to who won the 2020 election.

Trump sells out our allies and empowers our enemies. He's fucked people over his entire existence (contractors, Ukraine, NATO, those that helped us in Afghanistan, his own voters), and he could give a shit about America. Russia couldn't be prouder.

"Trump administration officials are directing activists to push anti-science legislation in the states – where public health authority rests – with the ultimate goal of changing laws and minds nationally."

Killing Americans for profit.

Anti-science bills hit statehouses, stripping away public health protections built over a century

More than 420 anti-science bills attacking longstanding public health protections – vaccines, milk safety and fluoride – have been introduced in statehouses across the U.S. this year.

It is likely that THE ONLY THING that can shame the GOP into opening the government back up is everyone, from the press to politicians, from the lowest to the highest, saying out loud that the GOP has no intention of opening the government back up, and no intention of ever having another election.
