Any US Senator who votes for Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr. or Kash Patel are betraying their oath of office to serve their constituents and uphold the Constitution.
A message to the US Senate: America is watching. Patel, Gabbard, and RFK are more than just unfit. They are a danger to our country, and to our people's safety. Use your vote to protect the people you represent. History will remember your choice.

Trump gets in bed with the Chinese owners, and suddenly Tik Tok isn’t “evil CCP compromised” anymore. These people believe in nothing. What Trump decides today is what they believe in today. Which changes tomorrow if Trump makes a deal with someone else to enrich himself.

Republicans couldn’t even pass a bill to keep the government open that they negotiated with themselves—after blowing up a bipartisan deal with Democrats because Elon Musk and Trump told them to. And then 38 Republicans voted against their own bill. 🤡

VP Donald Trump didn't expect that before even taking office, 38 Republicans would ignore his and President Musk's threats. The bill needed two-thirds to pass but failed to even clear a majority of 218 votes.

It was one of Trump's worst political defeats ever.

We're up to 4 wild years. Buckle up.

I grew up being told that corporate CEO's were fearless, bold and powerful. Now, I understand that many of them are pathetic, scared, cowards. That is something their money won't wash away.

It's been worse in recent decades. In 1980, Ronald Reagan won a landslide, beating Jimmy Carter. Reagan got 489 electoral votes, Carter 49.

We made it through then & we'll make it through now. That's not to say we'll accept things; we'll resist at every hint of injustice, corruption & lunacy.
