Trump pardoned his associates who tried to help him overturn the 2020 election.
He pardoned 1500 people who tried to violently overthrow our government on January 6th.
Trump is proving that he’ll pardon anyone for any crimes they help him commit.
Complete lawlessness.

Not to nitpick, but giving every American $2000 is way more socialist than using our tax dollars to fund free buses.

Trump’s tariffs jacked up prices, forcing families to spend thousands more on everyday essentials, leading to mass layoffs and tanked the economy — “whoops, here’s $2000”

50% of workers can't afford healthcare.
People are using buy now, pay later apps to go into debt to buy groceries.
GoFundMe has 250k pages for medical bills and 40k for tuition.
… and Elon Musk gets a $1 trillion pay out.
And people think moms getting SNAP are the problem.

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

Andrew Cuomo gave more money in taxpayer subsidies to Elon Musk than the entire cost of Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan.
It’s not unreasonable or radical to want our tax dollars to go to programs that help us, instead of as giveaways to billionaires.

They’re not “donations.”
They’re bribes.
Donald Trump took millions in bribes for political favors.
Everyone understands this, and yet he’s still allowed to use the most powerful position on the planet to run his grift, and the best Republicans can do is say “I didn’t see it.”

Saying things that are “anti-Trump” is “probably illegal.”
The Trump administration already deemed anti-Trump speech as an indicator of domestic terrorism, because they aren’t only crushing your right to free speech, but trying to scare you into not speaking up at all.

Open enrollment starts today, and premiums are skyrocketing. Why?
Because our healthcare system is for-profit, and insurance companies are exploiting you for as much money as possible by selling you coverage and then denying you care.
It’s a scam.

Elon spent $291M electing Trump.
In exchange, Trump is giving him billions in government contracts and allowed him to gut the federal agencies investigating and regulating his companies.

Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.
If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, don’t shame them.
Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.
