But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

What an amazing message if every Democrat would do this!
For folks asking if I'm going to attend Trump's joint address to Congress next week: no. Instead, I'm choosing to hear directly from Oregonians and will be hosting an open-to-all town hall on Facebook live. Oregonians can submit questions in advance here:
Town Hall Participation Form
If you are a constituent of a lawmaker of an upcoming People's Town Hall, submit your information here!
If you have questions or difficulties with the form, email info@peoplestownhall.org

…so many will suffer … ugh here we go.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau literally exists to protect consumers from predatory financial institutions. It's returned over $21 billion to 205 million consumers. The sole result of this move is that Americans will have no recourse when they get screwed over by a bank. Good work Elon 👍

A fake billionaire is letting a fake genius destroy America because a bunch of fake patriots are too stupid, too entitled and too hateful to understand the difference between what is fake news and what is fact.

“I hereby direct CMS to apply the State Personnel Code and consider
any participation in the January 6 insurrection as infamous and disgraceful conduct that is antithetical to the mission of the State”
