Imagine being mad you didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize while you’re busy stirring up Civil War in your own country.

Truth.

It was never about “free health care for illegals.” This is always what it was about. They have no intention of “fixing” the ACA, they intend to defund it.

Odd, it’s working for me.

They are basically dancing around and waving.

It’s awesome.

A man who has declared war on American cities is not deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize.

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

The Nobel Prize committee recognized María Corina Machado, Venezuelan opposition leader in hiding, for keeping “the flame of democracy burning amid a growing darkness.”

Excellent questions.

Angry @angrystaffer.bsky.social · 2d

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?
