Which one is the real criminal: George Santos or James Comey? Grifter vs. former FBI Director? Obviously, tRump rewards the worst and vilifies the best. I may have my issues with Comey, but come on!

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect & defend the Constitution of the United States." This is what tRump agreed to do but, he fails the “preserve, protect, & defend” part!

When the people fear the government it is tyranny. But when the government fear the people it is liberty. Heard this morning from Leader Jeffries on Velshi, MSNBC.

Remember when Biden funded infrastructure projects in Red States? Now, not only is Trump taking credit for those projects but is now canceling funded projects in Blue States. Another example of vindictive retribution. He was elected by 49.8% of those who voted, not a majority.

NNSA was a target of DOGE, people were fired, then some were reinstated, and Republicans are concerned that due to the shutdown, that 80% of their staff could be let go. They should not have messed with this important agency to begin with. Republicans put our nation at risk!

Was the tRump pre-meeting call with Putin before the next day meeting with Zelenskyy to get marching orders/talking points?

So, $40 billion to Argentina, but we could not afford $32 billion for USAID? The funding of USAID would have had a higher rate of return and most beneficial to USA soft power. SAD!

Just got confirmation from a relative that all the “willow” trees on the Kennedy Center promenade have been cut down. Everything tRump touches dies, even trees!

So, tariffs on cooking oil? What is next, underwear, deodorant, toothpaste, bottle water, spray tan, condoms? This is manipulation that tRump signals to friends in the financial markets to take advantage of market volatility. Oh, only the corporations and rich can make these trades.

Why is it ok for Republicans to deplete the Treasury in July by making permanent tRump tax cuts expiring in December yet unwilling to extend ACA subsidies in October that will expire at the same time as those tax cuts? Oh, one is for the corporations & rich, the other for lower classes. Got it!

Does the Republican House of Representatives Leadership have nothing to do since they have been gone for almost 3 weeks? Are they now grifting Americans for their pay? Republicans are wasting $750,000 a week on Republican members payroll, over $2 million thus far.

America first?: $20 billion to Argentina, blowing boats out of international waters, billions of dollars to Israel, supporting foreign soybean farmers while doing harm to USA economy, destroying USA farmers, closing the government and repressing freedoms for Americans while grifting them. SAD!

Remember when politics in the USA ended at our shores, tRump continues to bad mouth Biden overseas, and today in the Israel parliament. It is disgustingly vile.

Folks: insurrection act passed in 1807 and the bill of rights (2nd Amendment) was ratified in 1791. So, if the President invokes the insurrection act, the military should be given 1791 armaments, I.e., a musket.

Why does the Prime Minister of Italy cover her mouth during the Pakistani Leader speech? Is she sick or laughing?

19naxos07.bsky.social @19naxos07.bsky.social · 5d

Too bad this man doesn’t have a few million dollars that he could buy a pardon from tRump! All other rich people do it!

Man, I fucking hate ICE.

Really? What are the numbers? I call fake news on this health report. No news on mental acuity?

Reminder: Trump vaccinates himself 👇🏽

The reason is that they are proud boys, oath keepers, 3 percenters, and other similar paramilitary groups. Part of their signing bonus is a future pardon for future criminal activities.

ICE isn’t hiring the best people

It’s getting harder and harder to tell “law enforcement” from the criminals they claim to protect us from.

Funny: Now that the Nobel Peace Prize went to a woman, none of the news outlets are talking about how trump was snubbed. Prior to the award announcement, there was all kind of hype for tRump. I am glad he didn’t get it!

19naxos07.bsky.social @19naxos07.bsky.social · 8d

Why are reporters saying the tRump’s trip to Walter Reed is for an annual check-up when that was done 6 months ago? Call it what it is, a semi-annual check-up!

19naxos07.bsky.social @19naxos07.bsky.social · 8d

Is anyone else happy that the Nobel Peace Prize went to María Corina Machado, a woman, and not tRump?

19naxos07.bsky.social @19naxos07.bsky.social · 9d

Do you know why we do not hear of the proud boys, oath keepers, the 3 percenters, and other similar organizations? I bet they are all working for ICE!

19naxos07.bsky.social @19naxos07.bsky.social · 9d

Delusion: Sec. “Barbie wanna be” Noem said they arrested the girlfriend of the antifa leader. Antifa is not an organization, there is no leader. BTW, why are republicans afraid of being anti fascist? Weren’t all WWII veterans “antifa”? Thought so!

We all condemn Oct. 7, 2023, yet tens of thousands of Palestinian women and children were bombed, killed in submission with tRump bombs. Peace through death? But wait, America first? tRump is delusional regarding Portland being burned to the ground. Is he being shown AI videos of such destruction?
