#BlueSkyVets House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is notable for citing his Christianity and adherence to the Bible.

So, why does he spread “unambiguous lies” to excuse the Republican’s part of the government shutdown?

tRUMP DID NOT WIN THE NOBEL PEACE PRICE!
Norway is worried about the fallout from not pacifying him by ‘awarding’ his demands.
If more people had done this when he was growing up, we wouldn’t be in this predicament.

Oh, donald trump didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize because a real defender of democracy deservedly won the prize, Maria Corina Machado. Trump will never be taken seriously as a peace maker,he is a destroyer of peace. #DV1 #ProudBlue #NobelPeacePrize

Nobel Prize Committee had a difficult time deliberating over winner of Nobel Peace Prize

You think their choice was influenced by extrajudicial destruction of Venezuelan “drug cartel” vessels by Trump?

Good morning. If today feels heavy, rise above it with gentle strength. If it feels empty, fill it with small joys. You don’t have to fix the day. You just have to move through it with courage and resilience.

Republican Shutdown.

This time, the Democrats proudly carry a message:

“Save healthcare and release the files, we’re ready to talk. You?”

The longer the other side stalls, the further the message spreads.

This is some bold shyt! 🤯

A woman disguised herself as several people to take the written commercial driver's license test. She was busted along with her sister, a Garden City DMV supervisor.

Other employees were arrested in the scheme as well.

'Like a spy in an espionage thriller.' 7 indicted in corruption scheme at Garden City DMV

The DA's office says the ring of employees allowed a single person wearing disguises to take the exam for 10 different applicants.

Trump loves to spend the country’s money. He was accredited with 25% of the total national debt during his first term. I bet he’s already surpassed that amount and we haven't reached the end of the first year.

The people in this DOJ are uniformly loyal, obedient, and weak. The women are also required to be as glamorous as possible. Competence or knowledge of the field of law they're working in is not required.

To Trump, appearance is everything.

Americans no longer have faith in our government since Trump took office

He doesn’t deserve our allegiance

Trump & Republicans are carrying out a hate-filled agenda destroying any belief we ever had about leadership

Loyalists to Republicans are traitors to Americans if not to the law
