United we stand. Saying things doesn't make them true; my faith is in facts. Fairness fan, quant. I want an economy and country that works for all. Democracy is not a spectator sport. ⚖️🇺🇲🗳️

Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."

Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

BREAKING: Trump’s ICE bans Christians and all people from praying “in front of or inside” the Broadview ICE facility.

So, forced prayer in school is good, but volunteer prayer for the prisoner is banned.

This is what white nationalist Christianity looks like. This is Trump’s fascist America. Smh.

In another era, ICE raids would be described as persecution of Catholics.

VoteVets' MG Paul Eaton (Ret) blasts GOP Senators for rejecting Senator Tim Kaine's War Powers Resolution. He says Trump is waging a "criminal and unconstitutional" war and betraying the principle that Americans shouldn't die without having a say in the matter, through their elected representatives.

Don’t. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers.

Don’t host lying liars on the teevee shows to performatively lie in public.

If you’ve screwed up & done that anyway, end the interviews immediately & don’t invite the lying liars back again.

See above. Repeat.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

No Congressional approval has been granted for use of force. There's no plan or exit strategy. And the administration won’t provide evidence to justify their strikes. Now they're deploying an aircraft carrier for operations against boats in the Caribbean. It's #ForeverWar

It's a scam bailout to friends of Trump and his thug chums who had been making a lot of money off Argentina.

The scam goes like this:

Trump's ballroom ain't bringin' down the price of groceries or the cost of healthcare.

Trump literally cares more about Argentina than Americans.
WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.
