📢 Trump is running the govt like he ran his casinos. ‼️
So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

Always fun to be told to 'pull up your bootstraps' by someone who owns a boot store, and you can't even afford boots.

Living in Halifax for over 20yrs, I still recognize the landmarks.
Even #WinstonChurchill is seen in clips. Amazing to see this old footage #RemembranceDay 2025

Crazy idea: Why not, rather than spending $5 TRILLION dollars to pay for data centers to create fake brains, just pay actual human beings with real brains that same $5 trillion?

Democrats caved on ACA subsidies thinking the GOP will “show their cards” later. Are you kidding me? These people burn down their own farms, deport their own families, lose their union jobs, veterans benefits & still vote for Trump. You can't outsmart stupidity with compassion and logic.

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.
What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.
We're paying for the torture of children.
I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

These kinds of things happened two decades ago under the last Republican president. A lot of people made a lot of short term money. Then it all came crashing down and his successor had to clean up a huge mess. Here we go again.

The moment the Affordable Care Act was signed into law.
It is a dirty shame how Republicans have tried to get rid of it, with no replacement in sight. Ever! I will always be grateful for President Obama. He truly cared about America.
