It’s been an exhausting first week of this administration. Do not despair and do not give up hope! It’s a strategy to overload and shock our systems. They want us to give up. They want us apathetic. Step back when you need to and take time for your mental health, but fight as you’re able.
The last 6 months have been a shit show. Government programs are being gutted rapidly. Incompetence reigns as partisan hacks fire qualified civil servants, make life harder/more expensive for average Americans, all while destroying whatever faith we had in our systems. Don’t give up. Keep fighting.

One third of the country supported the January 6 2021 attempted take over the government & are the same ones who voted him back in. They are traitors in my book.

Kristi Noem ordered ICE to purchase ten Spirit Airlines jets for deportations. Two problems: Spirit doesn’t own the planes, and they don’t have engines. Has there ever been a more incompetent administration?

Noem wanted to buy Spirit Airlines planes - except the airline didn’t own them

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.
This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Republicans LOVE work requirements to get to eat or have health insurance. This despite the additional costs of administration and that it typically just creates more paperwork and kicks eligible people off these programs. Yet they don’t think they need to work to keep their pay and benefits.

The Nazi scourge didn't die in a bunker; it rested. Nestled in the hearts of the vermin who fled justice, it sought solace in welcoming sewage. The U.S., behind its cloying good-guy facade, obliged; nurtured the sickness; watched it metastasize. Now, Evil feels safe again. It's angry. And ravenous.

49% of consumer spending is now from the top 10%, the largest amount since we began tracking in the 80s. Deutsche Bank, who predicted the ‘08 crash, has warned of the AI bubble in America. The recession is here, how bad it gets depends on what leadership does. Sadly, Republicans will let us starve.

Anyone trying to preserve the American experiment by standing up for democracy and to this fascist bully is now considered ‘an enemy within.’ Funny, we’re the ones trying to save America from the likes of him.
Trump: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in many ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."
