Dear #MAGA

when they cut your Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, and SNAP, when they take away your overtime & unemployment benefits & cut your wages, when your food is no longer safe to eat, know that we liberals/Dems weren't fighting against you, we were fighting for you.

When you intentionally try to humiliate some one it often does just the opposite and humiliates you. Mabe you didn't feel it but the cameras were rolling and the world sure saw it. You were the one looking foolish, not Zelinsky!

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky?

Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

What a great use of taxpayer resources here! Witch hunts against political rivals, and running down the rabbit holes of conspiracy theories.

Waste your own time all you want--but stop wasting *my* money and exploiting public office for personal political gain.

Shitler just canceled any peace talks bc he is offended that Zelenskyy stood his ground.

Let me be clear: Zelenskyy didn’t offend the US. We have always stood by our allies in defending democracy.

Shitler & CouchFuqr wanted someone to buff their egos. Zelenskyy is too much of a man to do that.

Some lawmakers claim they can cut "waste" and "fraud" without affecting your health care. But the House's budget framework they just passed includes nearly a trillion dollars in potential Medicaid cuts. The only way they can find that much is by kicking millions of Americans off their health plans.
Are Lawmakers REALLY Cutting Waste or Simply Cutting Your Healthcare?

Trump yelled at Zelenskyy, interrupted him, told him to stop talking, knocked him on the shoulder at one point.

Zelenskyy came back at him, tried to interrupt back.

By the end, Zelenskyy was sullen in his seat and Trump was red in the face, yelling about Obama and Hunter Biden.

Trump and Elon just began firing hundreds of NOAA workers serving “mission-critical and life-saving roles.”

These climate experts and forecasters are crucial to tracking natural disasters like hurricanes.

Make no mistake, their terminations will cause preventable deaths.

I just read a post declaring that a group that voted for Trump now realized they made a mistake but no one is going to admit it. Well if there is any hope of saving us from this madness, you better speak up! You gave them power, it is up to you to take it away. Make them fear loosing their jobs.

Last month, Sen. Deb Fischer's (R-NE) husband refused to shake the Vice President's hand.

Yesterday, he tried to shake Doug Emhoff's hand. The Second Gentleman replied: "Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?”

FEEDBACK: A viewer wrote about our decision today to detail the violence against police by the Coloradans pardoned by Trump for J6. We did it because many Coloradans back the Blue. And it should be on the record for when those J6 attackers run for office in Colorado. #copolitics
