When the person responsible for 1000’s of deaths in Gaza and the person responsible for 1000’s of deaths in Ukraine are you biggest cheerleaders for the Nobel Peace Prize, then I sure the Nobel Committee had a lot of questions.

@fetterman.senate.gov spends more time on conservative channels like Fox News kissing Republicans’ behind and attacking Democrats than he does actually working with the Democrats to solve issues that would benefit his constituents like rising healthcare costs.

As long as there is a 218 vote that will force the release of the Epstein files, I expect Mike Johnson to keep government closed.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 22h

Johnson and Thune are just 2 overpaid White Staffers doing Trump’s bidding. Federal employees and military be damn. If they had guts to stand up for either, then Trump would come for them.

Democrats put forth a bill that would have funded military pay, but Republicans blocked it, so tell me who really care about military.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 1d

Pentagon leadership is basically robbing Peter to pay Paul, which is the pay for military, but how many time can they do this, before screwing over someone else or defunding critical programs.

I’ve learned that if you hit Trump supporters with facts that they can’t dispute or don’t want to acknowledge, they will either attack you by saying you just don’t like Trump or bring up some nonsense or lie about Biden or Obama to deflect.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 1d

The fact that the media doesn’t fact check Trump’s obviously lies about Portland, Oregon should be all the proof you need that journalism in America is dead as we know it. It has become more about self promotion, self interest, ratings, and profit which lies support. @nbcwashington.com

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 2d

The entire Nobel Community just made the Trump’s enemies list, I guess we can expect Pam Bondi to indict them all.

You declare war on your own country and its citizens then believe that you deserve to be awarded for it. Peak narcissist.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 3d

So Trump hasn’t endorsed the Republican nominee running for the Governor of Virginia, hmmm, wonder why?

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 3d

The Trump family has made almost 4 billion dollars since his inauguration, but you want hear that from the journalists over at @nbcwashington.com , but if he was Black and named Obama, they would be repeating it daily.

If Trump win the Nobel Prize, the Nobel Committee should be immediately disbanded.

If you want to see the height of journalistic hypocrisy, check out the local NBC station here in DMV. They might as well put we are Republicans as a running banner each night. Bias in journalism at its finest. @nbcwashington.com

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 6d

@nbcwashington.com So Republicans can post derogatory information and lies on social media, but you only report on and hold Democrats accountable.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 7d

There are too many lazy apathetic Americans who believe that this country will survive 3 more years of Trump and are expecting someone else to do the hard lifting in protecting our democracy. 82 million of them threw the votes away last Nov by staying home.

In South Korea, when their president tried to impose martial law, the people took to the streets by the millions until the South Korean lawmakers acted, in America, the same thing is happening, yet our response is social media posts and scheduling protests for everyone’s convenience.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 7d

Van Jones did exactly what his conservative handlers at @cnn.com wanted him to do, prop up Netanyahu by constantly repeating his lies and misinformation by dehumanizing the Palestinians, especially the children.

@nbcwashington.com anyone want to put a bet on where Trump will be this weekend as federal workers suffer. My money is on one of his golf courses.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 9d

@nbcwashington.com So Jones gets held responsible for his past texts, but Trump doesn’t get held responsible for his past and current text and social media posts. Can you explain that to your viewers? Isn’t that the height of hypocrisy? Another example of selective outrage by Republican hypocrites.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 9d

@nbcnews.com Stop repeating Republican talking points, Republicans also voted down a Democratic Bill to reopen government. How about sticking microphones in Republicans faces the way you did Democrats. Another example of how the U.S. news media has failed this country.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 10d

If Joe Biden had given the same rambling speech that Trump gave last Tuesday, @nbcwashington.com and their so called journalists would still be attacking Biden’s cognitive decline and his fitness as President. But like always, Trump gets a pass and they return to attacking and lying about Dems.

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 10d

Bernie Sanders has been in Congress for decades. He talks a good game but never delivers. Where is his Medicare for All bill and when is. Congress going to vote on it?

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 10d

Republicans also blocked a Democratic bill to reopen the government. How about being unbiased for once. @nbcwashington.com

Mike Hargrove @mikeh63.bsky.social · 10d

If you are a federal employee who voted for Trump and still believes that this Administration and Republican Party actually give a damn about federal employees, then I have no pity for you.
