I honestly don’t know how we stop this. Watching ICE fast rope in to residential areas like they’re some direct action operation to kill a high value target was fucking nuts.

Letting right-wing podcasters go on ICE raids is even more batshit crazy.

Biden in office, GOP House and Senate: DEMOCRAT SHUTDOWN!!

Trump in office, GOP House and Senate: DEMOCRAT SHUTDOWN!!

Allowing one party to control the media narrative because they’re loud and dumb is absolutely ruining people’s understanding of how anything works.

I can’t imagine being insane enough to write and threaten a judge with “tanks and pardons” in support of literally any President.

It’s a fucking cult.

We’re headed for the first shutdown since the last time Trump was in office.

The framing of trying to give Medicaid to illegals is absolute nonsense.

The average family of four is paying up to *$1500* a month on the insurance marketplace.

Dems wanted to help. GOP refused.

Did you know that your healthcare premiums are about to double because the GOP is intentionally sabotaging the Affordable Care Act and pretending that Democrats are trying to give undocumented immigrants free insurance?

I think if you burn an American flag, you’re probably an asshole.

That being said, I’ll defend your right to do so with everything I have.

Symbolic speech is protected by the First Amendment, and no imaginary executive order from Trump changes that.

If this was a no, it would be really easy to say no.

Bondi’s ad hominem attack on Whitehouse is WAY more of an answer than she realizes.

NOTABLE -- Pam Bondi refuses to answer direct questions about if the FBI has incriminating photos of Trump with half-naked young women, but instead deflects from them by attacking Sen. Whitehouse

Fuck this.

This is nothing but red meat for Trump’s base. A federal law that *Trump* signed into law guarantees backpay to furloughed workers. There’s no disputing this.

More Perfect Union @moreperfectunion.bsky.social · 1d

A new White House memo says that furloughed federal workers aren't entitled to back pay.

This is clearly against the law, which guarantees furloughed federal employees back pay for the duration of a government shutdown.

Nothing to see here, just Trump going for his second “yearly” checkup this year.

Anyone ready to admit that something is wrong with POTUS yet?

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?

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.
