We the people are protesting and in the streets. Get off your asses @housedemocrats.bsky.social and DO SOMETHING. Democracy isn’t a spectator sport. Not a writers’ workshop. Not a hand-wringing contest. File charges. Arrest the President. Do it. #V4V #ProudBlue

I agree. Nobody should re-post this.
That would be awful. Don’t share this.

This is a direct admission that tariffs are a TAX. I can only hope at this point that this is a beginning, but I'm not holding my breath.

A small sign of turning the corner. Sad that the Montana GOP has taken the Trump stance. I hope they suffer the appropriate consequence.

People ask: “how do we fix this?” How can we get MAGA to see that Trump is WRONG?”

We can’t. It’s impossible to use rational reasoning and data to help someone whom arrived at their conclusions irrationally.

We can only show them the consequences - once they’ve lived them for awhile.

10 short videos that are inspiring and some sad. I find these a great way to put things in perspective. When we are facing the times right now, with all of the bad, we have to fill the heart with good, "Chicken Soup for the Soul" style.

Sorry, but You Had to Be an Idiot to Believe Trump Could Lower Prices
The president’s disastrous affordability rally merely reraises the question: How could anyone have fallen for his campaign promises in the first place?

This David Cross clip is DEAD-ON. I WAS in disbelief that people voted for Trump. Now I understand. Our country is a racist, bigoted, misogynistic culture and always has been.

UNTIL NOW.

We have our work cut out for us. DO WHAT YOU CAN TO HELP FIX THIS!

I saw a post that showed a CNBC reporter standing up to Trump and calling him out which has circulated widely. As much as I was excited to see news that someone had actually pushed back against Trump to his face, it is AI slop.

We CANNOT post unverified content. It damages credibility.

The hypocrisy is OBVIOUS. Yet 38% still support Trump. That's the heart of the issue. Trump is a SYMPTOM, not the root cause.

Trump's approval rating at 38%. I can't help but wonder; who in the hell thinks he's doing a good job? Of course, MAGA and Billionaires. 38% of our society actually believes in him. It's dumbfounding to me. Especially apparently Hispanics approve?

It didn't take long for the trolls to show up....like others, just block them. The things to watch for are excessive swearing, telling you "you're just wrong," and a 374 page reply that looks like a Doctoral dissertation.

Again, I think the best thing is to just block them and move on.

The elimination of the FCC rule "fairness doctrine." Before 1987, news media were required to discuss controversial issues, AND provide BOTH sides of the argument. Once that was abolished, it led to the 90's of Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. From there it snowballed.

MTG resigning in January on the 5th? Hrmmm.....after all the about-facing she was trying to do?

Weird......I'm skeptical this is real at this point and not just a attention-grab of some kind.

Brutal commentary about President Trump. It bugs me to read stuff like this, but then you have to ask - is it true? About the President? I think it is. As angering and disappointing and sad as it is, at some point we have to face the truth about those we elect and the truth about us as a nation.

Note the post below. Ms. Leavitt is a enabler and a bully while making up the most COMICALLY DUMB excuses for her boss whom is losing his grip on reality.

If I have to explain to Trump's enablers that name calling makes them look STUPID, MEAN and IMMATURE, then the issue are the voters,not Trump.

Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?

LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

Really happy the House and Senate approved the Epstein Discharge Petition. I don't believe President Trump has nothing to hide. I share the concerns that the part of the discharge petition that allows for withholding due to investigations will allow A.G. Pam Bondi to refuse to release them.

I'm glad as well. This is his doing. But unfortunately, I think he doesn't care at all. It's what he wanted and he got it, so there won't ever be atonement.
