Seems odd that the pro-life party doesn't seem to care about children dying from gun violence. Every. Single. Day.

Gun are a right enshrined in the Constitution! Nope.

If we can talk about jailing people for flag burning, then gun reform should be on the table.

But, hey Tylenol... priorities.

Lock him up!

Trump is hiding all his correspondences on private servers. Seems just as bad as Clinton using a private email server, don't ya think?

If members of Congress think they're safe because they sat and did nothing during this period, they are wrong.

They think they are playing it safe. Wrong.

History will not be kind to those who were given the power to act and did nothing while our country was destroyed from within.

Trump never had a healthcare plan to replace the American Care Act.

He wants to destroy it out of spite.

He's willing to hurt Americans to get revenge on his perceived enemies. It's sick. Repulsive.

Congress, where are you?

Well, most of those people probably aren't mean and racist, too. Trump has the trifecta.

There are levels of stupidity. I was just estimating the "frighteningly" stupid. There's a spectrum for sure.

More kids died today from gun violence. Lelend Mississippi. 6 shot dead after a homecoming game. Another tragic loss.

But MAGA is worried about who's pooping in which bathroom and migrant workers.

Priorities. Get some people.

It used to be a lot of money. But it's what you need today to get kids through college and pay bills. It's not buying tax shelters or fancy cars.

They raise it every year.

Skylar @soaringabove.bsky.social · 1d

But the benefit doesn't increase. So it's a bit unfair. It's a capped benefit, and that's why the tax is capped. Otherwise, you're just giving 12% of your income to the community. Sorry, no.

Someday, you might be making over 200k and wonder where all your money is going. Taxes.

If we measured trumps IQ based on his spoken and written word and his complete lack of math skills... his would be somewhere in the high 70s I think.

They hate all Muslim countries except for the one that's still chopping heads off and murdering reporters.

Hey ICE officials!

Better save some of that bonus money for legal fees.

You still have some time, but not long.

Get on the right side of history quickly or suffer the consequences.

It's not worth the money.

It's seems like a poor idea to attack a "philosophy." Unwinnable.

Plus, nobody wants fascism.

But their movement is in its deathrows because the MAGA boss is a deranged egomaniac. So this is all they have left.

Propping up fake boogeymen is a banana republic staple.

They abuse the shadow docket because they are acting without regard for the Constitution.

They don't want anyone reading these decisions, which makes it very difficult to interpret the law.

Corruption has spread unchecked. Congress has failed its people.

Shocked! Just wait until the impact really hits their constituents.

It hasn't even approached the max pain threshold yet. But it will. And it's clear WHO is causing it.

Can't blame Biden for this one.

Nothing Trump is doing is by his design. His minders (Miller and others) put these ideas in front of him.

Trump bases his decisions on these matters by how it'll hurt his perceived enemies. It's really that simple.

Miller is running the show. Trump is his puppet. It's easy because Trump is dumb.

People mostly identify with the brand that is Trump and not the person.

Low information people consume the brand and never look deeper.

They know he wrote Art of the Deal (he didn't) and his reality TV show (fake).

He's essentially Coors Light, great marketing and product placement, but shit.

Skylar @soaringabove.bsky.social · 1d

When Trump attacks Democrats, states that didn't vote his way and media that doesn't bend his way... he's attacking America.

MAGA is not a majority. Trump is not a king.

Attacks on America, from the executive branch of government, must stop.

Congress has the power.

Skylar @soaringabove.bsky.social · 1d

Their big MAGA philosophy is failing on all fronts. All they have left is demonizing the opposition (fellow Americans).

As Trump/MAGA economics negatively impact more and more working families, their rhetoric will become increasingly dangerous.

They are done when they attack America. Losers.

Now that Trump didn't win the peace prize, he can stop pretending he cares about peace.

C'mon, he only cares about himself. If there's not something in it for him, he loses interest pretty quick.

I'm not on team red or team blue. I'm an American.

I'll vote for the party that protects Americans and respects our Constitution.

Currently, the Republican party is only serving white nationalists and billionaires. Rotten. Corrupt.

Don't be a slave to the party system. Vote for America.
