Nerf herder, reader of banned books, beekeeper, and assertive pedestrian. For the repeal of the 2nd Amendment.
Imagine telling this guy that in 160 years, white southern conservatives would take over the GOP, elect a states’ rights President, try to strip people of their citizenship, and give farmers “owner responsibilities” over their workers. #gapol #mlb #allstargame #atlanta

Army veterans' contribution to English literature is immense. Some examples - The Fall of the House of Usher, Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant, Ben-Hur, The Great Gatsby, Catch-22, The Catcher in the Rye, Slaughterhouse-Five, Mash, and The Things They Carried. #usarmy #Army250

America started 250 years ago, in an exchange of gunfire, over a conflict about taxation, representation, and on this particular day - over an act of gun control. #gapol #lexington #concord #boston #otd #gunviolence

Which country does the world trade with more, the United States or China, in 2000 and 2024. Btw, this has been the trend since the 1980s. #gapol #gagop #tariffs #trade #trump #ossoff #gadems

Today, our Attorney General is currently supporting a practice of rounding people up and sending them to a Salvadoran prison without any legal review or due process. If a federal judge intervenes, that is basically supporting terrorism. #gapol #gacourts #galawyers #chriscarr

Not even a year ago, a large group of the state's leading attorneys and judges issued a letter that targeted a judicial candidate whose campaign defended a woman's right to access healthcare. The JQC started an investigation. #gapol #gacourts #galawyers #chriscarr #statebar

Nope better to give another tax break and let the super rich buy on the dip. Someone else will have to deal with this mess at some point, but it won’t be us. Hence, the Reagan tax cuts, Bush tax cuts, Trump tax cuts…

You can fire 80,000 IRS agents or 15% of the VA and it will achieve nothing. The big ticket expenses in govt deficit spending are baked in and can’t be touched.

Unbelievable, the boxes were sent back to Mar-a-Lago. HUMINT, SIGINT, TK - TS/SCI (not in a SCIF) intel so sensitive that the FBI agents that originally found these boxes had to get their clearances upgraded just to look into them. #gapol #trump

Reagan tax cuts, Bush tax cuts, Trump tax cuts – over 40 years and we're still waiting for those positive effects of trickle-down economics. Meanwhile, the national debt has grown from $1 trillion to over $32 trillion, and it's growing. #gapol #gagop #debt #taxes

Imagine telling people four years ago that these insurrectionists would get a full Presidential pardon while the FBI agents working these cases would be fired and walked out of the building in disgrace. #gapol #fbi #trump #jan6 #January6th

Remember the infamous "Man Card" campaign? That was Cerberus. Video game marketing to kids of specific automatic weapons and branding? Cerberus. #gapol #gadems #dod #stephenfeinberg #gunviolence

Ever wonder why the AR-15 and similar semi-automatic assault weapons became so popular in the US after 9/11? A big reason was a certain gun nut, Stephen Feinberg, who happened to run the hedge fund - Cerberus Capital Management. #gapol #gadems #dod #stephenfeinberg #gunviolence

Likely the only time we will see the entire group of baby boomer Presidents together and ironically at Carter’s service. What an awful and sad legacy 1993-2029. #gapol #potus

I guess we follow the same procedure as with school shootings? A few days of thoughts-and-prayer statements and do nothing? 🤷🏻‍♂️ #gapol #galawyers #gacourts #shapethebar #gunviolence

In 1952, Canada's Chalk River nuclear facility had a meltdown (similar but on a smaller scale from Chernobyl). A group from the US Navy volunteered to enter the reactor and help with the cleanup. A 28-year-old, Lt Jimmy Carter, was one of them. #gapol #gadems #jimmycarter #usnavy

Today in 1776, James Monroe nearly died at the Battle of Trenton from a severed artery. Of the former Presidents - Madison served in the state militia, and Jackson was a messenger boy. Only Monroe and Washington held commissions in the Continental Army. #otd #army #potus
