100% tariffs in Trump's ramped up Trade War with China caused the market crash. Trump is all thumbs. 🤦‍♂️

We would be better off if he simply sucked them instead of thumbing out his missives online. 🙄

Core, critical services that our communities depend upon have been under assault ever since Trump's 1st unlawful firings. Now with the government shut down, there are even fewer safeguards to stop him. All to give billionaires tax breaks.

Wait, is Peewee German really only 4'10" tall and balding? No wonder he's so pissed off all the time! 🧑🏻‍🦲🤏🏻

Jokes aside, this is downright fascist. The men and women of the US Armed Forces are not the President's personal police force.

BREAKING: Trump calls for arrest of Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson.

This isn't normal, even for Führer Trump.

Speaker Johnson's 👖 are on 🔥 yet again.

POV: Someone says they’re “fighting for healthcare” after trying to repeal it 70+ times 💀

The math ain’t mathing, Mike Johnson.

NEWS: In violation of a court order & the 10th Amendment, Trump ordered the California guard to Oregon. The judge, a Trump appointee, called Trump's justification "simply untethered to the facts on the ground."

Do you live in a maternity care desert? The majority of Kansas is a maternity care desert. The Republican CR strips away healthcare funding from the few maternity wards we have left. This is what Ds are fighting for.

"That one time when JD Vance tried to lie about who caused the government shutdown (and no, it’s not Immigrants)."

Maybe next time Republicans will choose to lie about something that's not so easily debunked. 🤦‍♂️

An important message from Führer Trump:

Mexicans from Puerto Rico are invading our beloved Super Bowl halftime show. It used to be Super, the BEST; now it's only so-so. This #BadBunny attack on my rights cannot stand. 🍊

Well folks, here we are. Republicans have achieved their goal of shutting down the federal government.

Republicans control every single branch of the federal government. This is their shutdown. Republicans are responsible for this.

The Republican gas lighting continues! Exhibit B. Don't let Republicans deflect from their ownership of this shutdown. Their CR stripped away SNAP funding, rural hospital funding, Medicaid funding, and more. Enough is enough.

Happy National Coffee Day! Just a reminder that Trump is in the Epstein files. Sip your coffee while writing a letter to your Congressman demanding that they vote to stop protecting pedophiles & release the Epstein files.
