It doesn’t hurt. 🤷‍♀️. He’s still running one of the top 6 economies while his comms team does it.

All the leased have a role. Pritzker is the smartest one for sure.

But why not mock Trump? It’s the only thing that really bugs him.

We can. What media will cover it?

They’re all owned by RW owners… remember the crushing inflation that cursed the election? Remember all Harris’s correct predications based on project 2025, and..she laughed too much

Name a media company who will follow this story up? Which they shd do as news?

White supremacy is like Covid. Airborne and infects many ppl. Unless you were raised right, or get a vaccine.

It’s “awkward” to call someone out…you can call them out if they like Swift at the Chiefs games. But don’t tell another white person to knock it off. Just tell them it’s not a Klan mtg

Just pass the stand alone bill. It’s so easy and legal. Trying to get it from tariffs (?) and donors seems illegal and not easily happening in 4 says. Pass the bill like legislators do.

Yeah. And what happened in October 2023? Jesus. A country destroyed for what? Concert goers and babies?

And much as Trump promised, soon beach property for him and Jared. I hope both sides to keep to that 20 point peace plan since Gaza is near the end…

Lee Greenwood is 82 and I don’t think tours. Ted is 76 and has a chain saw cut thru his leg. These guys are old and ragged and not in the Hank Williams way.

Cowards. Outright physical cowards. Won’t show up for any R town halls, ice demonstrations, Trump rally, any of his minions speaking.

Just show up to a Black women no longer in public office to harass her. At least someone paid her for the tix. lol

If able bodied included my autistic nephew, I’d be devastated. He already has “supported work.”

He can’t shave himself. My sister is his primary care giver. I worry for when she dies and he’s left alone.

We will help ofc. But he needs the Medicaid services to live. They’re eugenicists.

Why is this woman still on my TL? I wish her gone

I hope so, too!!

We had over 1500 1/6 rioters charged and in court. About 1,000 spent time in jail.

Until Trump came in mass pardoned them. It’s no reason to not charge ICE thugs. We just can’t elect another Trump.

😹. Too true. Hoping no one walks in unexpectedly

We with a D congress impeached him twice. The R senate didn’t convict.

The reps come up with the articles of impeachment with witnesses and receipts. (Note what happened to Vindeman.)

Then they all vote. And send it to the senate. This seems futile and without a D congress, goes no where

Introvert love is the best kind of love!! That’s a fantastic vignette.

What bill is this referring to?? The Rs voted down the stand alone bill to pay the military.

Is Johnson saying that the BBB is the only way to pay the military and federal workers?

Omg. He stumbled and went round and round on that one. Sad

Condemn him for using the DOJ and then his own attorney to press bank fraud charges. He named her as special attorney even tho no prosecutorial experience.

Federal attorneys quit due to this pressure since there wasn’t enough there.

Mare @maread.bsky.social · 1d

I agree! Good point.

The majority of Black Americans live in the south and Texas.

Many of the inhabitants of these states—no Medicaid expansion, no repo rights and gutting the VRA—live there b/c family and roots.

lol. They are doing this on purpose. They don’t care.

Mare @maread.bsky.social · 1d

Introverts still love ppl, marry, have kids. They are drained by ppl, so need recharging.

And thank God don’t have to hear their own voice all the time.

I love my introverts. They’re often well read and quietly witty.

Or at least the 79M ppl who voted for this.

Do you mean Hamas? They signed. Primarily b/c Qatar made them.

Or what? I’m not sure which side you’re taking.. it’s true that Hamas is not supposed to remain in power. Not sure that will ever work.
