Con man Trump got his COVID-19 and a flu shot at Walter Reed Hospital, Oct 10th. During his first term, he told people to use horse paste and bleach to fight the flu. Are you being conned?

MAGA republicans just don't care about veterans and the military - they never have.

The Trumpification of Canadian politics

“When Pierre Poilievre states that ‘Canada is broken’ or when he mocks and criticizes reporters, he’s taking a page from the Trump playbook. He’s deliberately and preemptively trying to cast doubt about any critical coverage of him.”

The fact that a MAGA operative bought Dominion Voting Systems, is not getting much play among Democrats. The company’s name “Liberty Voting” says it all. MAGA will now control the voting in 27 states.

Dominion Voting Systems, which sued Fox over its reporting on the 2020 election, has been sold to a seemingly new election company run by a former GOP election official.

You know that this was the Trump family that did this or someone close to the administration. Our investments lost $$$ because they were gaming the market again...

This is not only corruption but needs to be investigated for inside information including who made the trade and where they got their information! www.rawstory.com/trump-267417...

I don't think we can tolerate comments like that, especially on our Thanksgiving weekend or any other time for that matter.

I'm watching from Canada, and I don't know how people can call this a "crime-ridden city". Looks like peaceful protests and a lot of fun to me.

Unintentionally funny line of the day from MAGA Mike Johnson:

"Republicans are the party fixing healthcare."

That one kills every time.

Mike Johnson: "Republicans are the party that are fixing healthcare. We just demonstrated that in the one big beautiful bill."

I live in Oregon and my sister lives in Portland. Nothing like what Trump is describing is happening in Portland or Oregon. Business is strong, and the demonstrations are not at all violent. Trump is lying as usual.

Bob Geiger @bobgeiger.bsky.social · 14h

And yet there is no request from Portland Fire & Rescue for federal assistance with the catastrophic conflagrations.

It's almost like they don't really exist.

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

The entire world knows he's lying and he's targeting only blue states and blue cities. Hopefully numerous court challenges will stop him, keep working at it.
