Anyone see the trend?

I think the Trumps and the wealthiest believe they're in a soap opera where they're entitled to play God with us, and MAGA-MORONS are too starstruck to even participate in reality.

For the love of God; Trump is bragging how he dodged a bullet and Charlie couldn't. 👇

Trump at the Charlie Kirk memorial event: "They fired sniper rifles at ICE agents, and me. But I made a turn at a good time. I made a turn at a good time. Charlie couldn't believe it, actually."

25th Amendment

Trump: "I had a very wealthy person who called -- a donor, a great gentleman -- and he said, 'if there's any money necessary, shortfall, for the paying of the troops, then I will pay it.' Meaning he will pay it. How about that?"

Imagine the audacity of Steve Scalise, who benefited from free healthcare, being able to stand up there at this morning's presser and lecture Americans that we do not deserve affordable & decent medical coverage.

As he and MAGA leadership, continue to call 'No Kings Day' a 'Hate America Rally.'

Here's the jubilant expression of Lisa McClain fighting for the struggling people affected by the Shutdown.

These people are delusional and dysfunctional, you might be too if you were bathing in millions of dollars for lying to the people you promised to protect.

As leader far-right Brothers of Italy party, Giorgia Meloni is associated with national-conservative and right-wing populist ideas, with roots in post-fascism. While she has moderated her rhetoric on the international stage, she continues to face scrutiny over her party's history and policies.

It's convenient for MAGIC-Mike and the Cult leaders that the government is "barreling towards the longest shutdown in the history of the United States," because Trump doesn't want those Epstein files released.

You know who needs more money? Billionaires need more tax-funded investment capital to fund their AI technology and overseas call centers. Don't forget Bitcoin Billionaire Boy-Wonder Barron; he'll rob grandma's Affordable Health Care fund too.

Family plans: The average monthly premium for a family plan ( two adults and two children) without government assistance is approximately $1,483. The average annual cost for a family policy in 24 was $25,572.

That means premiums will rise roughly about $1,000 a month on average per family.

Dedicated Democrats @dedicateddemocrats.bsky.social · 10h

The actual premium can vary significantly based on location, plan type (PPO or HMO), and the specific employer's contribution, but this figure represents the total annual premium cost, not just the employee's share. For context, the average employee contribution was about $6,106 per year in 22.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.
