Remember 10 yrs ago when Elon Musk & DOGE were “cutting waste” from the gov’t?
Wait…I’m being told that was only a few months ago.
Is that still a thing? Wasn’t it a fully operating department? Where is Vivek Ramaswamy?
Did DOGE join the Wall and Free IVF in Trump purgatory?

I’m watching President Obama deliver a speech in New Jersey. Let me tell you…he is THAT DUDE! How far have we fallen from this inspiring soaring oratory to a ridiculous clown that mocks and insults others. Makes my heart hurt.

The political game has new rules.
1. You can say ANYTHING. Truth is optional.
2. There is no scandal, only hoaxes.
3. Compassion, understanding and empathy = weakness
4. Cynicism is the new normal.

Wait wait wait..the DOJ is planning to ban transgenders from owning guns.
But no bans on say…white males who make up the VAST majority of shooters. No bans on guns of any kind.
But open carry in DC is now more than okay.
Got it.

I would advocate for the elimination of mandatory vaccines because it would aid in weeding out dumbasses from the population. But those adults had their vaccines and we would only punish innocent children.

Every member of the Congress, all 535 elected officials, every member of the Cabinet, every Governor of every state…every single one of them is smarter than the President (okay maybe not Boebert). They should shut out the insanity and do what they think is right.

Gerrymandering is wrong. We all learned this in our very first civics class in high school. It now we have started an open political gerrymandering war. Who are we? This is stupid and it starts with the President.
