Trump’s latest meltdown?
🧨 Epstein = “hoax”
🚩 Gaslighting to protect predators
🤡 Attacks supporters who want truth
🙄 Says his “success” matters more
👿 Minimizes child trafficking—for himself
💩 Calls his supporters stupid and foolish
This isn’t politics. It’s cult propaganda.

When a man with nukes starts talking about revoking citizenship because he doesn’t like someone’s opinion, we’re way past red flags.
We are deep in “emperor with no clothes and no brakes” territory.
And the GOP is just nodding along like bobbleheads on a dashboard straight to hell.

20 girls died in TX after a flood warning underestimated the danger.
Why? Trump slashed NOAA. Fired forecasters. Cut weather data.
Billionaires got tax breaks. Families got body bags.
Cuts don’t cause storms. They just make sure more people die in them

H.R.1 doesn’t “ban” abortion—they just strip Medicaid from any clinic that provides it, even legally. In states like MI where it’s still legal, this starves providers. Unless you’re rich? Good luck. It’s not pro-life. It’s “give birth, barefoot, with no rights.”

FDR taxed the rich and built the American middle class.
This bill? It does the opposite.
Tax breaks for billionaires, cuts to healthcare and food for kids.
This isn’t policy—it’s punishment.
We deserve better.

Warnock: If I'm honest, there are days when I have to ask people of my faith tradition as a Christian, are we reading the same book?
The book I know says I was hungry and you fed me. I was sick, I was in prison and you visited me, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….

Every Republican just voted NO on SNAP benefits for kids under 12. But billionaires? They're getting tax breaks. Feeding hungry children = too expensive. Rewarding the rich = business as usual. Disgusted doesn’t even begin to cover it.

It's so weird...its like they are with an abusive partner who always has an excuse for his behavior. How long before they get tired of making excuses?
Trump is such a gaslighter, and some people just love being gaslit by him.
People will study this for centuries

Starting to feel like a bee surrounded by MAGA flies.
We literally warned you. Repeatedly. Loudly. With facts. But now y’all are shocked he’s doing exactly what we said he would?
Honey, we don’t have time to keep explaining why democracy tastes better than dictatorship-flavored BS. 🐝✌️

How to throw the worst birthday party ever:
Step 1: Be Donald Trump.
Step 2: Spend millions on tanks, troops, and flags.
Step 3: Still can’t fill a park.
Meanwhile... over 12 million people (and counting) showed up around the globe to protest you.
Happy No One Likes You Day, I guess. 🎉

11+ million protested today. That’s the 3.5% rule in action—enough to tip history.
But one day won’t fix it.
Power counts on us going quiet tomorrow.
Let’s prove them wrong.
We don’t back down.

Two lawmakers were shot in MN. One is dead. On a day meant to protest authoritarianism. We march for those who now can’t. This isn’t politics—it’s right vs. wrong. Silence helps the wrong side. #NoKingsDay #DemocracyMatters

A U.S. Senator was handcuffed today for asking questions.
Alex Padilla tried to do his job—and they dragged him out.
This isn’t protocol.

Newsom’s speech?
It was the political version of rolling up your sleeves, grabbing a mic, and saying:
“Not today, fascist Barbie.” 💅🏼
For once, it didn’t sound like DNC 💩
It sounded like someone finally pissed off enough to throw punches and a clear message:
We’re not gonna be bullied by Trump.

Yes, Lissa — it absolutely does pose a threat to democracy. Here's why, broken down in plain terms, no fluff #LAProtests

They're calling it a win for workers: "No more taxes on tips!" 🙌
But here's what they’re not saying...
This could actually hurt most tipped workers. Let’s break it down. 👇

Investors already had a whole fund called TACO — Trump Always Chickens Out — before the judges even smacked down his illegal tariffs.
