True-Bluer. Preferred pronouns are “we/us.” I expect my elected officials to “No” everything from FOTUS-47. Not a fan of Goldilocks Ds, who've ALREADY started in again for a THIRD time 'cuz they *think* they've got it better under the current regime 2.0.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

🚨There goes the last of Governor Pritzker’s fucks. 🪦
He took that threat of being arrested to heart… and the people of Chicago are marching in the streets because the Chicago mayor and their governor have their backs. ✊🏼

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

“No.”

It gets fixed FIRST…that’s how the shutdown ends.

Cons are not trustworthy…it says so in their name and is proven by their actions.

The discovery phase of this (and Comey’s and James’) trial is gonna be LIT!!!

Just Jack @just-jack-1.bsky.social · 1d

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him.

Poke the bear, Donnie. See what happens.

These are scary times, and it’s okay to feel afraid. The challenge is learning how to respond instead of retreating. This piece offers insight into managing that fear and transforming it into courage, understanding, and tangible steps forward.

The Fear Factor

The right and the left both use fear to drive politics, but the difference in how is striking

Oh, why limit it to just that…I hope she goes to prison for ALL of her crimes, both those we already know about and those we’ve yet to uncover.

Stephen Miller says lots of things.

Normal, sane, decent folk pay him no mind.

Which, of course, explains why FELON-47 and its regime *hang* on his every word.
