America's fascist tyrant is using the shutdown for political retribution. This is NOT what happened during previous shutdowns! But America's never had an authoritarian ruler obsessed w/getting even and using the gov't to punish his political enemies! And America's never had a congress let him do it!

Man, this guy is sending our military all over the world! Peacekeeping in Gaza, covert operations against Maduro and the gov't. in Venezuela. What else that we don't know about yet?

He's "on point" w/the MAGA messaging. Truth is, polling indicates people blame republicans more than democrats for the shutdown; some blame both. The ACA tax breaks are HUGELY popular, majorities do NOT want subsidies to end. Republicans' saying we'll negotiate that AFTER a bill passed? Ya, right. 😡

Before the war that started on October 2023, an est'd 1,000 to 1,300 Christians were living in Gaza. Did Faux Fox News know this? There were many religions practiced there. Christian sites have now been bombed, including the Orthodox church in Gaza. They are all probably dead by now ..... 😥

He and his enablers were tell any lie to discredit "us." And he's looking for any excuse to attack protestors and stop the protests. RESISTANCE is the only option to tyranny and denial of rights! "No Kings" in America. 💙

YES! Their violence & abuse of rights has been documented and is being documented every day! Aggravated assault, kidnapping, transporting US citizens over state lines they have detained, etc. Their criminality is out of control, and they are doing this because they know the tyrant will pardon them.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

Now I wonder if TIME wanted Trump viewed from this angle on purpose. Deborah who is professional film maker takes note of this photograph that shows absolutely no scar tissue visible on Trump’s ear where he claims to have been shot. More evidence this was an outright lie!

Be prepared for anything while you're in America's streets. "They" want to portray us as violent, leftist terrorists. There will be instigators inciting violence so it can be blamed on the "left." Our fascist ruler would use "extreme force" to stop all anti-Trump protests. He just needs an excuse.

Pepper balls hurt and act as pepper spray. They're not very accurate, so you'll probably get hit during a spray-n-pray barrage. Wear long sleeves, hat, gloves, and jeans. Guys, wear an athletic cup. Get a gas mask with eye protection (pic). Be prepared, be safe, help others.

Elon Musk does too.

Bessent is sending $40 billion of our money to Argentina with more to come.

There is zero oversight. Congress not involved.

One unelected man is sending a fortune to Argentina and nobody will stop him,

Topics Mike Johnson thinks are serious:

- Super Bowl halftime entertainer
- getting a Nobel Prize for Trump
- terrifying naked bike riders

Topics he thinks are not serious:

- Epstein Files
- domestic violence
- being able to keep the govt open
- the neutering of Congress

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 13h

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious
