I guess we can all get vaccinated now that the cult leader gave the stamp of approval, right?
Note: he received the Covid AND Flu shot.
It is good timing as we barrel into respiratory season. 🤧
Get vaccinated!

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

We need to get out in numbers that will stagger them. There will be a protest in a city/town near you. If you care about democracy, your children's and your grandchildren's future, be there. Mark your calendars!!!

He tells on himself.
Witching-hour madness
leaches out
when he's all alone
and scared
in the dark.
No one coddles him
in the wee hours... (Which is gross to think about..how much would your soul cost;
what would they
have to pay you
to breathe the same air
as that shitweasel?)
But I digressed.

BREAKING: Trump doesn't remember/believe/understand HE was president on January 6, 2021

This is how unstable, how mentally unbalanced, how much of a dangerous mixture of dishonesty and insanity Trump is:

"Biden's FBI?" By Jan. 6 2021, TRUMP had run the FBI for 1,448 days #25A

@repstansbury.bsky.social: "This is gangster activity. The president is trying to shield pedophiles by calling and threatening members of Congress. We need more members of Congress, whether it's the Epstein files, the shutdown, health care, democracy, the rule of law, to just fucking do their jobs."

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

And the lawsuits will follow promptly. Government shutdowns give presidents no additional authority to dismiss federal workers. We’ll fight these outrageous assaults on civil servants and public services.
