Can all Democrats in leadership please take note? This is how you respond to a biased media asking "your fault" questions to the guys actually showing up while their Republican colleagues sit out.
I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.
I keep thinking about Trump believing a cognitive test is an I.Q. test. I know he was a bad human prior to cognitive decline, but with a dad who has dementia - and recognizing so many symptoms in Trump, I actually feel bad for him. The people around him? They should be prosecuted for elder abuse.
Dear Trump,

if you can cajole billionaires and millionaires to pony up for your precious gaudy ballroom, you can convince them to pony up to feed the poor and house the homeless.
I live in this red state and people absolutely stick their fingers in their ears and stomp like children when you roll out facts.
Only two states voted unanimously across all counties for the same presidential candidate.

The contrast is striking. 🔴🔵
Weird. When did rural Oklahoma become the "ghetto"?
This idea needs to grow legs.
A Democratic Senator should hold a filibuster by reading Virginia Giuffre's entire memoir on the floor.
Future History classes, "Yes. America elected a felon & probable pedophile whose 3rd wife lied to gain US citizenship. He pardoned all who participated in an insurrection during his first term b/c they were trying to help him steal the election. And, that was the beginning of the end of America."
Increasingly, I think fewer of us are believing this. Step by step, we are watching those we once revered turn their backs on their oaths, their country and their souls. Hard to believe, at this point, the National Guard will be any different.
The thing that agitates me most is that numbskull, orange faced, belligerent buffoon can't even dance.

A freakin' 300 million dollar ballroom? Are we serious, America? C'mon!
As Trump goes deeper and deeper into a chaotic mission to destroy all legal boundaries and now even structures of America's history, it is not lost on me that Republicans in Congress could stop this.

There are so many reasons Trump should be impeached, but only one reason he won't be. Republicans.
I know when gov is shut down, folks are losing their healthcare, families are losing food access and farmers are losing their shirts, it's comforting to know the President's first priority is a gaudy, overpriced ballroom that looks like something Liberace would have thrown up.

#MAGA. America first!
Seems those contractors who are tearing down OUR house (White House) are setting themselves up for some serious lawsuits seeing as how Trump is not the owner and has no authority to renovate the structure.
There is no question Trump is building his private army, but what I hope is that all those retired generals & military brass who adhere to the constitution are developing that Deep State he's constantly crying about - forming the kind of militia to fight an enemy within b/c this feels like endgame.
Guess all these good Christians who fill Oklahoma church pews on Sunday are going to reach deep into their pockets and deep into their cupboards to fill the gap for those in need who will be shut off from SNAP come November 1.

And the church says, "Amen!" amiright?
Dear Trump voters, when will you wake up? You vote for culture wars while you vote against feeding your family. Is it worth it? Farmers? How 'bout you? Military? Like knowing ICE is the new private army w/ better pay?

Pathetic. Every last Trump voter.
Oklahoma Human Services announced SNAP benefits no longer available beginning 11/1. Seems a lot of folks are blaming DJT.

It's as if no one tried to warn EVERYONE what would be happening under another Trump presidency. Can't decide if I feel bad or not. (I do feel bad. I just feel cranky about it.)
A lot of despicable images will linger in my mind long after Trump is buried beneath the cold, dark earth but this one is so profoundly sad, yet so perfectly reflective of the destruction he so casually inflicts on America and her institutions.

Republicans have failed us. Trump is the curse.
American institutions don't crumble. But they can be destroyed.
I don't recall advocating for his death, but the real irony is they protect a rapist while treating him like a savior. A little self reflection would serve them well.
Yeah, well, nothing says pedophile protector like a Republican in DC.
How is it, not a single American news outlet is asking Trump, Vance or any Republican Senator or Representative WHY a sitting US president is sharing an AI video of himself in a crown, literally dropping feces on the citizens of the country he represents? & following up with, "Do you support this?"
A President, posting an AI video, in which he wears the crown of a king while dumping feces on his OWN country's citizens pretty much backs the reason for protest.

Congress should heed the warning in the protest. We, the people, are mobilizing. Trump will lose. And so will you.
Weird. So much love for America at these #NoKings protests.

But, Republicans said it was a hate America rally.

Aunt Tiffa is confused.

What a terrific turnout on a rainy Saturday in Tulsa. Unicorns, frogs, bubbles, sharks on unicycles, and an endless line of cars honking with Impeach Trump signs, No Kings, Hands Off. it’s a huge party of smiling happy people, saying, not in my country. Bravo! #NoKingsTulsa #NoKings
I think my favorite part about this fight for democracy is... that when we win, history books will show inflatables as key components in taking down a despot and his rogue regime.

And that just feels like perfection.

#NoKings
Pro-America "No Kings Rallies" across the nation today! Republicans trying to paint this as a negative because they've bowed to the Trump regime and turned backs on US. But the rest of us still hold constitutional truths and the rule of law as values.

#NOKINGS!
