Our economy is in shambles, and it’s no surprise. Trump is not a negotiator; he’s a chicken, and you’re paying the price for his cowardice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uAVP2mkCm8&list=PLmHDGpDOjacoTxbrY068uPDU6lYhubjg4&index=25

At midnight, 20 million Americans will see their healthcare costs skyrocket because Republicans refused to extend tax credits that help working people afford care.
Trump promised he’d lower prices on day 1, but this & his tariff tax have done the opposite.
A terrible way to start 2026.

What we long suspected has now been made clear in a finding from a District Court Judge: this Administration’s decision to go after Kilmar Abrego García is a vindictive prosecution.
They’re weaponizing our justice system and threatening the rights of all. This cannot stand.

Guess he couldn’t restrain himself.
Trump couldn’t get through one sentence of a post to mark the birth of the Prince of Peace without calling the majority of Americans scum.
What a sad little man.
And how sad that so many Americans have sacrificed their morals and values to defend him.
