Trump: "The restaurants were all closing, now you can't get into a restaurant. They're opening up new restaurants. It took 12 days for us. We sent in not politically correct military. We sent them in based on merit."

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

Will they allow the aspiring dictator to use the US military on American citizens, which is tantamount to declaring war on us?

Trump only really wanted to win the Nobel Peace Prize for one reason – and you guessed it: it’s Obama

President loses out to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado as his dream of surpassing Barack Obama’s achievements continues to elude him

Jeffries: "Donald Trump's strategy during this government shutdown that he has created has been to play golf and issue deep fake videos. Mike Johnson's strategy is to keep House Republicans on vacation."

Spending to send a huge masked national police force and the military against American citizens, while trying to conceal the crimes of pedophiles further erodes trust in government. And it devastates democracy to satisfy Trump's revenge and desperation to conceal his crimeas and avoid jail.

These cuts endanger us at home and abroad. We can't trust information from this government that Vought, Trump, Trump, et al. have dismantled to the gross disadvantage of the American people. When you cut national security and/or deform it to your needs, it is not reliable.

This is criminal It will devastate the economy, unemployment and people's lives. Americans will eventually notice that they cannot get information or assistance from their government, because Republicans give tax breaks to billionaires.

Trump thanks Putin for saying he should get the Nobel. But this obvious flattery is sickening as Putin continues killing. The destruction of Gaza and Ukraine is a wound on the soul of decent people. Israel must defend itself, but without atrocities. Putin has no excuse at all. Nor does Trump.

Julia Conaway Bondanella @arethusa131.bsky.social · 12h

A peace prize for F47? He fails to stop Putin and Netanyahu for months, attacks ships in international waters, bombs Iran, threatens Denmark and Greenland, sends the American military and ICE thugs to make war on his own citizens, attacks the Constitution & law and promotes authoritarianism.

And don't forget the military type attack that terrorized an entire apartment building in Chicago, where they brought cameras to film propaganda. There were many American citizens and children terrorized by the ICE thugs and who know what else. We see who the thugs and terrorists are.

While Trump dillydallied with dictator and warmonger Putin in Alaska, thousands were dying in Gaza and Ukraine. Furthermore, has sent the military and the ICE thugs against American citizens and people trying to get citizenship legally under totally bogus pretexts.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 12h

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

Clearly after all these years, there is no plan, except for what is in Project 2025, which is essentially a plan to degrade the healthcare in place by limiting Medicare, Medicaid, reducing subsidies, and promoting junk insurance. Sen. Thune, you really need to read the plan.

Julia Conaway Bondanella @arethusa131.bsky.social · 1d

Thune claims that Trump wants to develop a better plan--but he said that years ago, and it is clear he has no concerns about Americans' health., nor does he have a plan. After all, he said healthcare is 'difficult'.
