If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

I'm not the best photographer, but these were taken at a empty chair Town Hall in North Carolina's district 10, Pat Harrigan's district. Harrigan is a 100% Trump loyalist and is very dismissive of any constituent who disagrees with him.

I feel much more emotionally aligned with Kinzinger and Kristol in this moment as opposed to Schumer and Jeffries because Kinzinger and Kristol are actually trying to change public opinion as opposed to trying to perfectly calibrate messages like a safecracker around existing opinion.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this.

The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

To be honest Scott, viewing events from across the pond pretty much everyone is, barring Russia etc and sadly much of USA.

It's terrifying how your country looks to be sleepwalking into a dictatorship. 70 million didn't vote for Trump. Why haven't the dems mobilised the people? Where's the rage?

Thankfully, the whole world is watching and they don't like what they see. ( Except Putin, of course. 🙄)

French Senator Claude Malhuret:

"Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

I’ll sum up Trump's speech for those who missed it:

He's raising costs for families with pointless trade wars.

He’s slashing health care for seniors and families.

He's going after the CHIPS Act and all the jobs it created.

And he’s abandoning allies for Putin.

Tonight, President Trump failed to mention a single action he’ll take to stop the number one killer of children and teens in this country: gun violence and crime.

The American people deserve leaders who put our children's safety ahead of the gun industry.

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy.

All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

To every American tuning in to Trump’s address tonight, do two things before you watch:

Check your 401k.

Check your last grocery bill, and add 25%.

No matter what the President says tonight, that’s the reality of what he’s doing to your family finances.

Don't be fooled: every time he says ‘tariffs’, Trump is talking about alienating our allies and raising the cost of everything you buy.

He doesn’t care about you, he cares about the chaos he can use as a distraction to enrich himself and his friends.
