Why did he vote for Charles Kushner as Ambassador to France? Kushner is a felon, and a terrible person.

It's day 13 of the shutdown. What's Trump doing?

Negotiating a budget deal? No.

Preventing premiums from doubling? No.

Stopping 15 million Americans from losing health care? No.

He's meeting the Pres. of Argentina to reward him with a $20 billion bailout.

America first?

I don’t want to see anyone, male or female, running for Congress after they have reached retirement age. My senator, John Hickenlooper will be 74 when he runs again. That’s my age. He would be 80 at the end of his term. That’s too old.

It’s destructive down south near Alamosa. It’s a shame so many of those folks voted for the guy that crashed FEMA.

Janet Mills has announced a run for U.S. Senate. If elected, she would be 85 at the end of her first time.

If you care about democracy, generational renewal, and leadership that actually serves working people—You should want new leadership in Graham Platner.

“I don’t think those people are being served”

ICYMI — Marge says Trump is only serving his rich donors not regular folks, and his trade war is hurting American businesses.

(Spoiler: she is right)

I’ve seen the pictures of destruction. I think 67K is a gross underestimate.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

There will be paid agitators at No Kings. MAGA will infiltrate the crowds and try to cause violence. Watch for them, and call them out and surround them.

AltFDA @altfda.altgov.info · 1d

They are scared! They see the momentum changing direction and it’s coming back on them. They are trying to demonize and minimize our movement. They are speaking to an ever smaller group. These fuckers will not win!!!

Sean Duffy: "The No Kings protest, Maria, really frustrating. This is part of antifa, paid protesters. It begs the question who's funding it."

What do you expect from the regime that threw away the Pandemic Plan in 2017?

Trouble is, trump isn't running the government anymore. Associates like Miller are. If we can remove trump no one in the Republican party has enough power to continue this attack on our democracy. They know this and prop up this blubbering idiot.
