When a sitting president calls for death to lawmakers, it’s not a warning sign, it’s the emergency siren. He is talking like a dictator and telling you exactly how he plans to use his power.

This is how democracies fall and how dictatorships begin.

The President is calling for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged. This is deplorable, un-American, & an open invitation to political violence.

Servicemembers take their oath to the Constitution, not to any president. I stand with my colleagues who have honorably served this nation.

Trump is a global issue, because the economy, the environment and peace are global issues.

We Canadians cannot afford to ignore what our friends below the 49th are going through.

Trump is absolutely cratering on economy in new Marquette poll:

Overall econ approval: 36-64
On tariffs: 37-63
On inflation/cost of living: 28-72 (!!!)

Haven’t read the post but from the meme this has to be about trump - the liar in chief - right?
Reminder that if Republicans actually gave two shits about lowering the debt or reducing the deficit, then they'd stop giving the Oligarch's huge tax cuts.

It's never been about the debt. It's about propaganda to control us.

They don't actually want to cut spending either. They never do.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Trump bows to Putin, respects Xi, stop reporters asking question of the leader of a regime who murdered an American journalist - and he berates the hero Zelenskyy.

Trump is and continues to be an international embarrassment - to himself and to the US.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."
