Fascist republicans are death to democracy.

🚨 Our veterans spent months, sometimes years away from their families and friends to protect our country, our homeland. To see the angst they feel now, knowing what has been destroyed by this administration is worse than sickening or tragic — it is an abomination. They deserve SO MUCH BETTER! 💔 1/2

Leavitt: “There’s fraud in California’s elections. It’s just a fact.”

Reporter: “What’s the evidence of that, though?”

Leavitt: “It is just a fact.”

SNAP benefits will be gone, small businesses will suffer, insurance premiums will double, air traffic will be delayed/halted: All of these things are happening because when the gov't shutdown ends, the Epstein Files get released.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

Trump says he knows nothing about a crypto billionaire who got a presidential pardon.
Trump says he won't make SNAP payments, but his underlings walk that back and say he’ll make partial payments.
Is Trump too busy picking out bathroom tile to run the government?
Who’s in charge? Stephen Miller?

You will be shocked, shocked to learn that Trump’s claims about fentanyl and lethal U.S. maritime strikes are false.

Shared my thoughts with @svdate.bsky.social about the real reasons the U.S. is lawlessly attacking these vessels.
