Greg Abbott is a lackey of Donald Trump.

He’s going against exactly what he said he would do last year.

Marjorie Taylor Greene just said the Republican Party is “getting destroyed” during this government shutdown as they refuse to protect health care.

“Everyone’s just getting destroyed... Republicans, you have no solutions... It is hurting so many people.”

They don’t care. They’re not religious for the sake of religion. They’re “religious” for votes only.

That’s how Chicago rolls. We don’t like Nazis and we won’t allow them to infiltrate our neighborhoods.

“This is a man who’s suffering dementia,” said @govpritzker.illinois.gov. “This is a man who has something stuck in his head … He doesn’t read. He doesn’t know anything that’s up to date. It’s just something in the recesses of his brain that is effectuating to have him call out these cities.”

Gov. JB Pritzker says President Trump deploying troops to Chicago due to ‘dementia’ and obsessive fixations

Democratic governor’s comments came as he continues to oppose President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago area for deportation efforts.

Dazed and confused as usual

Kat💙 @kat86.bsky.social · 8h

A governor of one of the 50 states. What kind of a country are we when one governor (Abbott) sends his National Guard to another state (Pritzker) against that state’s wishes?

Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records

The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.

Pritzker: "This guy is unhinged. He's insecure. He's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump. If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me."

Eric Trump is a dotard like his father.

Kat💙 @kat86.bsky.social · 13h

The demented buffoon and felon said that our governor of Illinois and mayor of Chicago belong in prison. Our governor follows the law and our constitution. The same can’t be said of the Trump administration.

Don’t start the government back up until the Trump administration is out.
