The Republican held congress relinquished control, I believe, back in February or March to give trump complete control !
Look it up. Then of course we know SCOTUS gave him complete immunity… so unless We The People, stop him with the 2026 midterms, he is very near to becoming a King right now. ❗️

Jack is right.
For every day that the shutdown continues, Dems should add another demand.
Trump won’t let the Rs negotiate. He’s deliberately trying to break our congress and make them irrelevant.
Trump needs to be impeached.
Oh-and release the Epstein Files!

Bc trump said No. this is going to go on forever… why? Bc trump can and IS doing whatever he fcking wants.. why? Bc the Republican held congress turned their power over to him back in February. And BC SCOTUS gave trump complete immunity.
We need to win the House and Senate in the 2026 midterms !!

Why doesn’t Johnson have time to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva? Isn’t the government shutdown? Not in session? Surely there’s plenty of free time, even factoring in his porn monitoring with his son.

The ceasefire enacted yesterday was pretty much the same ceasefire that was on the table last Fall. And Netanyahu ignored it then. It wouldn’t be surprising at all that Trump told Netanyahu then not to agree to any ceasefire b4 the 2024 election bcuz it would help elect Harris.

20 billion in US taxpayer funds to rescue Jon Paulson, whose name features in the Epstein files, according to Rep. Massie.
Paulson was a mentor to Bessent and helped him build his fortune. The money will ensure continued free universal healthcare for Argentina, while US citizens face massive cuts.

They Cut 🫵 your healthcare, but can afford to give Argentina 20 Billion ….

It is most certainly a CoverUp…
Democrats CAN NOT negotiate until they have something in writing. Why?
Bc the last time the Democrats signed on with them, They Went Back On Their Word. Fcking period!
Democrats are not going to be fooled again !
We want it done now!
A binding document !!

He’s a solution and my last reply:

Release all the files.
Redact victims’ names.
Charge the guilty regardless of party or any other affiliation.
Let the people and law decide.

But, clearly that isn’t what is going on.
