And everyone who has Medicare or Medicaid will have to get prescriptions from Trump Rx, right?

Steve Bannon has been notoriously wrong in the past. His predictions are what he and his followers want to happen.

Trump's dementia makes him a puppet, easily controlled by puppeteers Stephen Miller and Russell Vought. They are in control of the presidency.

They are "turned away to die in the parking lot from an ectopic pregnancy," not because of immigrants, but because of dangerous anti-abortion laws passed by the GOP.

Ripping.

Bullshit.

"Ripped"?

We'll see. 🙄

The "lethality" though. 🤪

Where are Noem's bullet-proof vest, helmet, gun and pepper spray? This is a half-ass cosplay in a deadly "war zone."

Likely, much ado about nothing. How did Santos contact Boebert and Burchett if he has no contact with prison outsiders. Santos is a big baby. He's going to whine and cry throughout the duration of his sentence.

Fetterman appears to have switched sides. He probably congratulated Bondi for her performance.

Maybe that's what it will take to get rid of MAGA and the GOP.

How much more Trump abuse will it take before Americans realize we no longer have a functioning democracy.

October 18th - No Kings Day.

A large blue dumpster sits on the White House lawn, overflowing with ornate gold furniture — gilded chairs, mirrors, and vases — with a golden toilet placed neatly beside it. The caption reads “I have a dream,” implying a fantasy of discarding symbols of excess and authoritarian luxury from the seat of power.

Note: This image is being shared in connection with No Kings Day, a nationwide event planned for October 18, which celebrates the rejection of monarchy and corruption in all forms of governance.

It will be unfair in the future"when they don't have Trump to fight for them." Is Trump admitting his mortality?
