Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Oh, sure, let's have Qatar set up its military bases on American soil--because we're all about America First, amirite?

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.

Trump and Hegseth give Qatar an airbase in Idaho and Qatari pilots will be flying jets over American airspace. Their lavish gifts and personal business deals with Trump worth billions really paid off for them.

MTG broke with Trump over Epstein Files, Health Insurance and the GOP Shutdown. Now virulent Trump apologist Laura Loomer is breaking with the Regime over a Qatari Air Base in Idaho. Maybe they finally realize Trump is selling America to the highest bidder. Even to supporters of terrorism #ProudBlue

Today I feel for all the mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters who will lose their insurance. The party that has the House, Senate, and Executive does not care about the “people.” The billionaires get richer, and the “commoners” suffer. I cry for the country not just mom today.

She was declared cured. Within 3 months we were back at the hospital. This time, they told us her body was full of cancer and there was nothing we could do. We took her home and watched her die.
