Feel free to copy my message to your members of Congress:
ICE agents are killing innocent people. An ICE agent got angry at a woman for ignoring his display of testosterone and KILLED HER. Don't tell me he was in danger. I saw the footage. You should be ashamed for supporting this regime.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

Congressional Republicans have surrendered their power to the president they are constitutionally obligated to oversee.

It is a startling abdication, rivaled only by the Trump’s lies to voters about what his foreign policy would be once he took office.

Trump, Epstein, and the Women
The Epstein files are a vast trove of documents and will take time to absorb, but Trump made his attitude about women clear long ago.

Only a person easily bribed would think that everyone else is easily bribed. $1776 to the soldiers. $1500 to you, to cover a lifetime of medical expenses. $2000 tariff refund.

If you still support Trump, you support a vindictive man out of touch with reality. Are you scared he is all that is holding the party in power? He will be its destruction.

How many rants and ego-stroking posts will it take for you to say the emperor has no clothes?

Unconscionable. Frightening narcissism. Any elected official who still supports such a person is as bad as he is.
Here's Trump saying Rob Reiner is dead because he made people mad with his "Trump Derangement Syndrome."
Absolutely insane.
It's a real post by the president of the United States, who has the nuclear codes.
this is one of the most psychotic things Trump has ever posted

I am ok with tankers, owned by Russian oligarchs, that carry oil funding terrorist organizations and operations being seized. Especially when sailing under a false flag.
Everything isn’t black and white, it’s ok to step outside echo chambers and research topics. We need more people to do it.
