Retired community worker, love my dog, the Northumberland countryside and nature. Wishing for more compassion in politics but think I'll be waiting a long time 🙄

I love Illinois Governor JB Pritzker.

He's blocking J6 insurrectionists from working in state jobs.

Senator Adam Schiff torched Donald Trump on the MeidasTouch Network:

"He will do and say whatever he thinks is best for him. If that means making up stuff about a crash...or fires...any disaster or failure on his own part. He will lie and obfuscate, blame everyone else, play the victim."

Donald Trump says that "people will understand" that prices will go up because of his Trump Tax tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China.

He campaigned on lowering the price of food and goods, not raising them.

In that case, let's throw out the guy with the accent from South Africa who's trying to get access to government officials' personal data.

Or let's send Melania Trump packing out of the White House.

How do you like those ideas, Marjorie Taylor Greene?

What Trump plans to do today... a big look via @motherjones.com reporters. Expect him to (try to, in some cases):
➡️ End birthright citizenship
➡️ Impose tariffs, causing prices to skyrocket
➡️ Issue pardons to insurrectionists
➡️ Eliminate trans rights across gov't

Donald Trump's return to power will mark a new era steeped in rule-breaking, authoritarian tendencies, and a deep hostility to civic institutions. And according to him, a herculean portion of this agenda will kick into gear immediately.

Here's what to expect on Day One.
