I’m thinking that this new book explains the governmental rot that we’re seeing.

According to a new analysis by Democrats on the Joint Economic Committee, the average American family has paid more than $700 in higher costs per month since Trump took office.
Remember when Trump said he would end inflation on "day one"?

Trump demanded Texas and other red states redraw their congressional districts to rig the midterms in Republicans' favor.
California fought back by redrawing its map to balance out this power grab. Now, Trump’s DOJ is suing California.
The hypocrisy is endless.

I’d love to see US Rep. Alexandria #Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) displace US Senator Chuck #Schumer (D-NY) & then go on to become the US president. She’s brilliant & she’s not afraid to speak the truth. I used to support Schumer, but he’s become tired & too scared to speak up. thehill.com/homenews/cam...

It's ONLY been 65 years since six year old Ruby Bridges walked through the halls of William Frantz Elementary as the first Black child to attend an all white school. Met with mobs and hate, her bravery and courage helped change the course of history for this nation.

Pretend there’s a war on (there isn’t).
Pretend drug traffickers are terrorists (they’re not).
Pretend overdoses are armed foreign attacks (they’re not).
Pretend “the president says so” means Congress has no role (it doesn’t).
Voila, legal. When factual reality is irrelevant, any law can apply.
