How is this our reality? 😢
I learned this week that you can put our troops' lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing.

But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn't like, you will be abducted on the street and disappeared.

How much hypocrisy can these people hold in their tiny little brains before they explode?
Imagine how Republicans would have reacted last year if Kamala accidentally texted a reporter the administration’s war plans.

📌The biggest problem isn't that Pete Hegseth is an under-qualified moron who is texting our military secrets to our enemies like some 15-year-old, blackout drunk.
The problem is there is an entire anti-American, bought-off political empire on the Right that simply doesn't give a shit anymore ...

Germany, the UK, and Canada are warning their citizens not to travel to the United States because it is now a dangerously corrupt country under Donald Trump.

But, sure, MAGA, keep telling yourselves that lie about Trump raising America's standing in the world. Idiots.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.

He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.

But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.

He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Seen on my news and academic feeds today:

"This is highly illegal!"
"Where are the courts?"
"Someone needs to arrest him/them!"
"The military needs to oust them!"
"WHERE ARE THE DEMS?"

This is the denial stage of grief. None of the above institutions are coming to save us.

We are all we've got.

Donald Trump, Jr., Eric Trump, and Ivanka Trump have never been hired for their abilities or on merit.

It's always been because they have a rich Daddy, which is also how their own father "qualified" for all of his first jobs.

“…Trump has assured his followers that the country is literally under attack and that the United States, which has the strongest military and the strongest economy in the world, is losing.”

I thought we all read Orwell in school as a cautionary tale, not an instruction manual.
