Reformed right-wing wacko. I didn't vote for Trump because I'm not stupid.

On top of this, Trump has:

-Prevented the NLRB from operating
-Reversed Biden's minimum wage hike for federal contractors
-Gutted OSHA
-Rolled back dozens of workplace health & safety regulations
-Dropped the FTC’s support for a noncompete ban

The “pro-worker" president.
NEW: This year, Trump ended collective bargaining rights for 1 million federal workers — ending union protections for 1 in 14 unionized workers in the U.S.

No, Trump hasn’t helped workers. He’s helped bosses exploit them. Lawrence S. Wittner in @inequality.org:

Trump's second term in office has been an all-out assault on organized labor.

Elon Musk’s new pay package could amount to $100B per year ($1 trillion over ten years!).

That's the same as 3.2 million cashiers’ paychecks combined.

It’s more than 1.4 million elementary school teachers’ paychecks.

It’s more than 2 million janitors’ paychecks.

The system is broken.

The Trump regime is harassing black and brown immigrants – including U.S. citizens – to get them to leave the country. The racists have changed costumes and methods: Instead of men in bedsheets burning crosses, it's masked thugs smashing car windows, zip-tying kids and tear-gassing neighborhoods.

The enemy from within, the Gone Nazi Goons are preforming acts of terrorism on our fellow citizens.
Trump’s USDA is threatening to withhold food stamp funding for 20 Democrat-controlled states if they don’t share recipients’ sensitive personal data.

Yes: Trump is weaponizing hunger against millions of Americans, including children, to score cheap political points.

The cruelty is endless.

"Branding individuals as 'narco-terrorists' without proof just to open the door to lethal force is not a legitimate policy,it’s a dangerous fantasy. It bypasses due process, shreds constitutional limits, and pushes America toward another unnecessary foreign war."

Giving the president the pardon power was a mistake. The most corrupt president in American history is conducting a jailbreak for his fellow criminals.

O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

This is racist and dangerous. Last I checked, Somalians are Black and Rep. Omar is a colleague. Where are the @housedemocrats.bsky.social? The @blackcaucus.bsky.social ?

Do not allow these insults to go unanswered.
Trump calls Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) "garbage," says that Somalians don't belong in the U.S. because they "do nothing but complain... do nothing but bitch"

Donald J Trump:

The pedophile and drug lord protector.

The economy crasher.

The longer this goes on, the more likely the Court sides with Texas. After all, Justice Alito's administrative stay while the Court considers the issue has let everyone proceed as though the new maps will be in place.

I expect a stay and dissents.
6 days from the Texas candidate filing deadline, and somehow it's still crickets from the Supreme Court. We're now 11 days after Alito issued the administrative stay on the lower court order.
