I’m not so sure too many people have an extra $22,000 a year just sitting around.

Thanks to Republicans in Congress, some Americans will have to pay more than $22,000 every year to keep their health insurance coverage.

$22,000.

That could be a matter of keeping health care coverage or just giving up—and for some people, life and death.

The president says there are very few stores left in Portland, Oregon, and the ones that are left are made of plywood.

I know we’re numb to this, but in any other time he’d have been removed by the 25th Amendment by now

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."

Private Air Force for Trump just in case the U.S. Military stays loyal to the U.S. Constitution.

“Sure, Trump is taking foreign bribes, terrorizing immigrants, trying to jail his political opponents and destroying our public health system, but I’m still glad I voted for him because that black Democrat lady had a funny laugh.”

WSJ: Trump’s “Pam:” social media post Sept 20th urging AG Bondi to prosecute political enemies (Comey, Schiff, AG James) was admitted to be a DM and sent publicly by mistake;

… an explicit order to weaponize DOJ from a corrupt and incompetent President who Rs in Congress will not check.

Vote blue.

Everything in the U.S. Constitution has been redacted except for the “right to be a Christian,” and the “right to bear arms.”

Weird because everything Trump does shocks, upsets, and disgusts me.

The Nobel Prize committee described Machado as a "woman who keeps the flame of democracy going, amidst a growing darkness" and commended her for her efforts to "achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy".

Trump is achieving a transition from democracy to dictatorship.

The media is calling Trump not winning the Nobel Peace Prize a “snub.” They’re saying it “slipped right of Trump’s hands.” They expect “blowback.”

WTF? Why on earth would Trump ever think he deserves Nobel Peace Prize, or that he would ever be considered?

I’m not a billionaire. Was I snubbed?
