Democrats are about keeping the lights on and the busses running on time. We are about stability that let's families enjoy their holidays. We do the daily grind that is governing our country. Republicans are about taking from you and giving to their ultra wealthy donors.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Last year they claimed “illegals” were voting, without any evidence.
They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws.
Now they claim “illegals” are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence.
So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans.
Enough.

My loyal companion Bode died last night of canine lymphoma. Since 2016, he was by my side at work and at play. He was always happy and no matter how bad other things were, he always made me smile. Quite simply, he was the best dog ever. I already miss him terribly.

Sending love, support and solidarity to President Biden and his family. We know he’ll face this cancer fight with the same grace, tenacity and strength he has shown throughout a lifetime of public and private battles. This man shows us what character and courage are made of.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who misses having a President who didn't start dumb trade wars, because he was too busy creating 16 million jobs, signing infrastructure and manufacturing bills, and putting a $35/month cap on insulin.
