Yes, America, he is referring to the 100% peaceful No Kings rallies that have literally nothing to do with Hamas or antifa or hating America.

America has been gaslit by these lunatics every day for a decade, and at some point the other shoe will drop—though I have no idea what or when that will be.

Reposting this for those who may not understand what Democrats are trying to push back against when it comes to Republicans shutting down the government and why Dems are fighting for Americans.

R’s are blaming D’s while they cut ACA tax credits and gut more federal agencies—has always been the plan

It's not just $930 billion being cut from Medicaid that will harm people

A 🧵

There's another healthcare nightmare in Trump's murderous budget bill -
The House GOP budget reconciliation bill does not extend the "enhanced" premium tax credits that were put in place by the American Rescue Plan

The President seems unwell. From his physical symptoms to his visible cognitive decline, the American people deserve clear answers about his ability to serve. I’ve formally called on the White House Physician to provide transparency and the truth about President Trump’s health.

Earlier today, on Deadline White House, a reporter (I think it was Mike Schmitt) said "Trump wants to go after Comey, James, others because he wants them to go through what he went through."

No. That is twisting facts. Trump committed ACTUAL CRIMES. He deserved to be indicted. These ppl do not.
