Huh?

That’s 47’s autocratic proclivities. Own the Gov’t and throw your enemies in jail.

Extend indefinitely while taxing the rich.

Adding war crimes to the list of Stephen Miller’s actions.

U.S. needs to do what it can to avoid being on the wrong side of history.

So very dumb what Mike Johnson does to placate 47.

Just let the Epstein bill go to the U.S. Senate.

If it passes there then let 47 admit he’s a pedo by vetoing the bill to release the files.

Never saw that before 😎

…and yet the congressional MAGA Republicans refuse to use their power to up hold the rule of law.

Pam Bondage should be in front of Congress, interviewed and removed for failure to uphold the independence of the judiciary.

The Chinese will eventually come back to buy soybeans but this’ll be long term damage to American farmers.

I wonder whether they now see the direct consequences of their actions? For a majority of them I’m guessing they’d do it all over again with their rampant Fox News viewing insanity.

Good work getting & sharing that photo 😎

That needs more funny CGI to match the frothy crap that’s coming out of 47 & his sycophants.

Loving every bit of Newsom’s trolling. 💙

True to your name 🤣

Perhaps she could add pedophile protector to her resume

What an utterly stupid American being given the Fox News blow horn.

Where does Fox News go to dig up these people from the jv team? 🙄

Which falls in line with what another dictator said,

For my friends everything for my enemies the law.

History is rhyming authoritarianism in America.

Deserves a very short simple answer.

Someone please get this ratfk removed. HHS should only be run by grown ups. RFK belongs in mental ward.

Mounting unfit evidence to give 47 the 25th.

dgassen 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @dgassen.bsky.social · 10h

That must be why the fossil fuel industry gave $450 million to Trump.

As a consequence Elon got butt hurt upon hearing he was no longer 47’s butt Buddy.

🤣 go go go 😈

Some people really are boring and don’t belong in show biz. 🤔

Did the nytimes ever decide to cover the facts and stop taking a bothsides stance on everything to place MAGA Republicans? 😈

Didn’t think so either 🤔

dgassen 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @dgassen.bsky.social · 10h

Then that means the ultra wealthy are incredibly lazy. As are Congressional MAGA Republicans that are trying to increase taxes, health care costs while converting the Fed Gov’t budget into a wealth fund for the ultra wealthy.

But not 47😈
