I am so mad, sad, and sickened this morning that it is hard to put into words. Coming off the blue wave of last week’s election, this cowardly betrayal of the American people is infuriating and heartbreaking. Vote all of them out. Please! Schumer first 🤬 😡 #caved #cowards #BentTheKnee #FDJT #8647

Elise Stefanik fuses corporate greed, political power, and America’s gun crisis into one self-serving machine that profits from bloodshed — a full blown deadly cocktail.
Elise Stefanik’s husband Matthew Manda works for National Shooting Sports Foundation, an extreme gun lobby group that used to be headquartered 3 miles from Sandy Hook School. It spends way more than the NRA on lobbying efforts to block all gun control efforts. www.timesunion.com/news/article...

This wasn’t a vote. It was a fault line giving way. Eight Democrats broke ranks… and the political aftershock hasn’t even started.👇

Dear Walmart,

Consideeing you have more employees on SNAP than any other company — instead of simply having a ‘cheaper’ Thanksgiving bundle, how about giving your underpaid employees who must rely on SNAP for survival, one for free? It’s the least you can do. And I stress, the LEAST…

Senators reach tentative deal to end the government shutdown
The deal, negotiated by a group of Democrats and GOP leaders, funds the government through Jan. 30. If it passes, it will still need to clear the House, which will likely take days.

Every one of the Dems who bent the knee needs to be voted out. With this vote and the presidential pardons, we are reaching the point of unrecoverable collapse of our government and our democracy. #IsItTimeToGetOut
"Pathetic. This isn’t a deal. It’s a surrender. Don’t bend the knee!” - Newsom’s press office

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, another frequent adversary of President Donald Trump, similarly derided the agreement, dismissing it as an “empty promise.”

Hey JD Vance.👋 You need to understand something. Physicians are never going to refuse emergency care to someone in an Emergency Department. No matter what you say behind that big boy podium.

We’re not like you.

We wake up every day to help people.

Corporate profit surge, corporate CEOs get huge payoffs, they give golden bribes to the Oval Office... while costs rise, SNAP benefits are cut off, healthcare costs rise, and the US people suffer. So who does all of this serve? Who is "AI" serving?

Just to make it clear, that is the President of the US fighting to prevent the needy people of the US from getting food. He is doing everything in his power to make sure that children and adults go hungry. That is the definition of evil.
