So our government's supposedly America first policy just bailed out Argentina to the tune of 20 billion dollars. Yes I said BILLION. Our government is shutdown, our military is not getting paid, the farmers are going bankrupt, people are laid off. Is this how America works now.

Listen to Gov Newsom. A president should provide support for all states. President Biden sure as heck did. A couple of years back, I had to fly into Tulsa, and they had workers improving and repairing bridges with BIDEN BUCKS. That's called being a real leader. trump, however, is NOT doing his job.

Governor Gavin Newsom @governor.ca.gov · 3d

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

Bailouts for foreign countries, golf trips, spending millions on deployments of the national guard to US cities, and a guilded ballroom for himself. What happened to his Anerica first policy. Looks like Trump first are his priorities. Trump has once again failed the Americsn people.

This is why we protest, this is unlawful sending troups into American cities. ANTIFA is a movement against Facists. The name is short for anti facist. Trump and his cronies are fascists and everyone should stand up and be heard. We believe in the Constitution.

This has to be a big challenge for them during this shutdown.

Nothing says Donny cares about America like building a ballroom for yourself while he shuts down the government.

Keep in mind if Trump wins this shutdown fight America loses.

Michael @wtpmichael.bsky.social · 14d

The deployments of the US military to US cities are illegal. Antifa is not an organization, and cities here are not war zones. The current resident of the Whitehouse is a draft dodger. He has never been in a combat situation. I am a veteran and all of this is against our oath. Shut him down now!!!

I don't condone gun violence Charlie Kirk certainly did. It is the price we have to pay to protect the Second Amendment. Listen to his own words. You reap what you sow.

You explained that to yourself. Why do you think Trump has not put sanctions on Russia but he has on our allies

Michael @wtpmichael.bsky.social · 21d

They used to hang people for this kind of betrayal.

It's time to get back to what's important. Keep the pressure on.

Imagine being the
Attorney General and almost pretending the First Amendment doesn't exist that's Pam Bondi's 2025 energy. Release the Epstein files now.

The Epstein files still loom heavily over this country. The truth, not lies, about this cover-up. All children continue to be at risk. We can not let rich men exploit children. Their lives must matter. If you love children and truly care, ask representatives/ senators, red and blue, to expose crime.

So which amendment is more important now, the First or the Second Amendment?

"I think it's worth having a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights" - Charlie Kirk, 2023. ĶARMA came calling. Violence brought to you by the conservative inaction on gun regulations and mental health.
