WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS THIS? He is a member of Al Queda who had a $10 Million bounty on his head. Al Queda killed thousands of Americans on 09/11. WHAT HAPPENED TO "NEVER FORGET"??
Now we lift sanctions so Trump can line his pockets??

Ex-pats in Portugal! bsky.app/profile/robe...
The protests were worldwide! We're on a long-planned vacation to Portugal so we were delighted to find a protest in Lisbon at Praça do Comércio. I expected to see a few dozen protesters but there were easily SEVERAL HUNDRED American expats/ retirees, all very angry about what's going on at home.

Currently traveling in Lisbon and this made me smile...

States send your federal payments directly to the projects and programs that need immediate funding for every day operations. Set aside the rest (if there is any, I doubt it in red states) until the purge has ended. Worlds Central Kitchen has shown

Do the same at every property where they live their comfortable lives. Yes it may be illegal but we will get a blanket pardon when all is restored to normal. Pause the Federal tax collection like they did during Covid until July.

Lawsuits and injunctions take too long! This is an emergency!! You know what does work...SANCTIONS! Go to MarALargo and offer every employee there a month off with pay. Offer every groundskeeper at all of his golf properties the same. Stop picking up the trash. Shut off the electricity and water.

This article suggests $373,000,000+ from the US Dept of Agriculture ALONE is either currently being withheld from Maine farmers/orgs or is at risk of being withheld.

A lot bigger number than I thought and it speaks to the gigantic cost of Susan Collins's complicity. tinyurl.com/3bxp8xvb #MEpolitics

You should print out your Social Security Statement. Elon and who knows how many countless others now have access to your private information, so it'd be wise to have a record of it.

The economic pain is already being felt in Maine as Irving, a Canadian company supplied us with both gas and oil.

Time for drastic measures! Do not pay your taxes!! Do not write one check to the US Treasury until we know who will be in charge of spending OUR money!

Just realized that that was the last rally he will hold with all of the first pumping and false promises. And no more Joe bashing...now the results are all on him. Which means work which he did not want to do in the first term and will be even worse this time as no reelection to campaign for!

Shameful
Right now, in America, 22 million workers make less than $15/hr. 40 million make less than $17/hr.

Shamefully, the federal minimum wage hasn't been raised since 2009 and remains at $7.25/hr.

I asked Trump's nominee for Treasury if we should raise it.

His response?

"No sir."
