I keep checking Facebook to see how angry all the Trump supporters I know are now that we’re at war with Iran, because they said Trump would end the wars in Palestine and Ukraine, but they’ve been pretty silent so far??????

There were really bad storms in Western PA this week and a lot of people are still without power but you would never know if you spoke with our rep, Guy Reschenthaler, who has spent the week vomiting up pro Trump propaganda and still refusing to hold a town hall

People who voted for Donald Trump and STILL support what he’s doing, 3 months in, are terrible people. They’re emboldened assholes and say deplorable, disgusting things that they never would have said in polite company even four years ago

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Democrat James Andrew Malone narrowly won a special election for a Pennsylvania state Senate seat in a stretch of Republican-leaning suburbs and farming communities, scoring an upset in a territory that a Democrat hasn’t represented in the chamber for 136 years.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

Now we know what the price of the prisoner release was yesterday. Didn't even take 24 hours for Trump to pay up.

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.
