The rest of the repubs must tell trump to resign.
"Trump is historically and deeply unpopular. it’s not just that people disapprove of him; they strongly disapprove of him. This is the biggest story in US politics. [It's] bad for Rs and getting worse."

There is NO America's team. There are 32.
Cowboys being "America's team" is a hoax and I will not stand for it

We are only going to see the sanitized versions.
Now Trump claims he’s eager to release the Epstein files.
But how can we trust evidence released by the Trump DOJ?
Remember, Trump fought to install an AG (Matt Gaetz) the House Ethics Ctte found likely solicited a minor.
When that failed, he brought in Bondi, a toady who always does his bidding.

Never vote for a republican. They only work for the wealthy and take from the middle class. Don't take my word for it look around and see Medicaid and Medicare taking one hit after another.

Bessent is another dumb maga that are just a joke. This entire cabinet are mental defects and should be pointed at and laughed at.
They think we’re all so stupid

I said that because I don't care for Mexican food. I'd much rather have Asian food.
I've never cared for sushi, but I'm not big on rice.

Some of us do.

I'd rather have sushi.
Huevos rancheros and chorizo with homemade refried pinto beans, pico de gallo, and sour cream. Looks a mess, but it's one of the most delicious meals I've made in a while.

ICE scum of the Earth. I have no respect for them and sooner or later we are going to put these people on trial.

The Constitution does matter and neither trump nor Obama are eligible to run in 2028.
TYSM for including me, Coko. Always appreciated.

Nah, I don't think so.

I would make one correction; they cannot get away with calling them young women. They are children and trump is on a dark path.
I’m not shocked, I’m disgusted because of who our president is.

Eagleman is a genuine piece of shit. He's one of the reasons I quit Twitter. I got tired of proving him wrong.
How much of a moron do you have to be to STILL, after all the shit that has gone down, remain an enthusiastic shill for this obviously incompetent con man.

Dershowitz has assured us he left on his underwear. So I'm guessing everything they say is a lie.

It's apparently the only way they can get inside.
What a photograph.

What a fucking prick.
Zac Segal, President of Boston University College Republicans, bragged on internet he called the Gestapo (=ICE) several times asking them to abduct alleged undocumented persons working at a local car wash

We are not lowering age of consent to 14 so these sick bastards can rape children.

Trump has demonstrated he knows nothing about economics.
Thinking a man who went
bankrupt 6 times was gonna save the economy is insane…

Billionaires are funding campaigns now. The politicians are no longer reliant on the average person. We have to turn that around.
The American political class is so disconnected from voters that they don’t realize that regular folks are totally down with a giant pan partisan jail cell holding everyone involved with Epstein’s crimes.

I don't agree with what Luigi Mangione did but I'm starting to gain sympathy for him.
You know who has Universal Healthcare provided by the government? Folks in Argentina do and the US taxpayers sent them $40 Billion Dollars so they can keep it. How are your premiums doing?

I guess that's why the repubs did so well in Virginia and NJ.

We need to see the Epstein files the FBI are holding.
So, as we’re all, uh, a little bit staggered by the latest round of Epstein email—these aren’t the actual files yet, are they? They still have to vote on releasing that, right? Or have I completely lost track of things?
