@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov take @tarasetmayer.bsky.social's advice. Explain in plain language: Republicans' #shutdown makes clear they don't care abt all Americans! How dare Republicans in charge hold hostage Americans' healthcare & jobs for Trump’s war of retribution.

I had a few words of advice for Democrats as they navigate this GOP shutdown.
“How dare they…”

You're welcome! I don't think they'll ever be released. One pleaded guilty & the other went to trial & was found guilty. Both were sentenced to 2 consecutive life sentences without the chance for parole. They're definitely where they belong.

In the first clip, because Carney isn't in the frame, I thought he was talking to the "President" of UK, which didn't surprise me.

If you click on it and go to youtube does it still show that same statement?

But it has taken 15 yrs to show signs of cracking. This is why the current US regime, including the new right wing media takeovers, needs to be stopped in its tracks now before we become like Hungary from 2010-2025.

Especially when it's wrapped up in a slickly produced propaganda video using all the fascist buzzwords.

They caught them fairly quickly and they're serving life sentences. Last year one of the men filed for a reduction in his 2 consecutive life sentences with the state and it was denied.

As the piece points out, DHS is being irresponsible by lowering the hiring age, shortening firearms training and using "invasion" and "criminal" rhetoric. This is a recipe for deadly mistakes. Dangerous for immigrants and US citizens. Everything about this is disgusting and maddening.

The whole time I was reading, I kept thinking, my gosh, he believes he is the antichrist and is trying his best to point in every other direction away from himself.

China bought $12.6B of US farmers' soy last year. Trump inherited an economy on the mend, inflation going down, repaired allied relations and trump and his lapdogs are destroying it all. Crushing small businesses, farmers, middle & low income folks & committing crimes against humanity here & abroad.

Glad to see this. Horrible that he & his family had to leave the country bcuz TPUSA tried to get him fired, threatened him & his family, doxxed him bcuz he taught & wrote about the history up to the present of anti-fascist resistance. Crazy that TPUSA doesn't want to learn about resisting facism.

I think his dad or granddad started the co. Funny thing, when reporters investigated Lisa Cook's mortgages, they found Pulte’s dad & stepmom had 2 homes in 2 diff states listed as Primary Residence & claimed tax exemptions on both. One city stripped the exemption & sent a bill for back taxes. 😂

I'm so sorry you lost your love to cancer at what I'm guessing was a young age since you're only 65 now. 💔 I'd never heard of PF til I was diagnosed. I do know lungs tho. I took care of my Mom for 5 yrs after several pulmonary embolisms. Lost her in 2013. Then I cared for my older sister for the… 1/

liver transplants. The symptoms & causes for PF & CF are different so the meds for each target different proteins & enzymes. 3/3
