Former US Senator from the great state of California. Grandma. Mom. Never shy to express my opinion!
As a mom & grandmother of males & females I say this: real men don’t abuse girls and real women don’t join them or make excuses for them. This is not about left or right. It is about right and wrong. Maybe we will learn why Trump recently said he may not be going to heaven. Open the Epstein files.

To blue in Ohio:
I was there with Ronald Reagan and we never caved. In 1982 we ran against Reagan and picked up 26 seats! The experts said “election results may have reversed the conservative flow of the Reagan, administration’s economic policies”
Fight on! It works.

Not enough space to go through all the good things that Democrats did, including Obamacare, huge infrastructure bill, health research, clean energy, AIDS treatment and prevention around the world, not to mention Medicare, Social Security, and Headstart.
Typically, agreed. But you cannot consider something a compromise when one side gets everything they want while another consistently - consistently - gets empty promises & broken vows.
Decades of this. The American people deserve more than "Well, we tried." They hunger & deserve party of results.

It’s very difficult when Dems don’t stick together My message: we can’t say we’re a big tent as we said election night & then freak out when we disagree. I’m not happy about it, but big blue wave coming because united GOP refused to care for the people who need them the most, and everybody knows it.

The fast asleep orange
man gave forty billion of
our dollars to Argentina.
That could have saved
Healthcare for
Millions of Americans for
a year with plenty left over to feed families in need.
Now that your Argentine buddy is fat and happy
sit down with Democrats
and end your shutdown. Now.

Remember “sleepy Joe Biden“ ? Meet “fast asleep Donald Trump”..snoozing at his press conference. Between his sleeping & GOP Congress on vacation, & Trump appealing decision to actually feed hungry kids, we’re in world of hurt. But help is on the way as we organize for every election going forward.

See how Trump reacted when a gentleman at his presser fainted. Trump looked really annoyed because it took attention away from him. A metaphor for how Trump treats the people. He doesn’t care if we fall or are sick or lose jobs, or are hungry. Thank goodness America is catching on. Big time.

To Speaker Emerita Pelosi: Thank you for your courage, fearlessness and focus. You knew the issues like nobody else; you knew the challenges like nobody else: you got it done like nobody else; you were driven to make life better for the people without a voice. And thank you for being my friend.

From far and wide America has spoken. The message is clear. We want our country back. More very hard work ahead.

Sec def Hegseth scoffed at USA saying diversity is not our strength but unity is. Finally Americans are united. In all our beautiful diversity. Finally. Against Trump. Historic low polls on eve of key elections where many can vote our disgust of MAGA abandonment of American values & for a new day.

Trump seems to be asking for even lower approval numbers.
He can’t remember who he pardoned;
He might send ground troops to Africa;
He doesn’t think ICE is doing enough despite their reign of terror!
He lies about prices
he says are going down. Bet he never went to a
Grocery store in his
life.

About novel, “the great Gatsby”.
Written right before the Great Depression; it’s a tragedy; selfishness of the newly rich is the backdrop of the novel; so, that was a perfect theme for Trump’s Halloween party…especially as he ignored a court order to feed the hungry. you can’t make this stuff up.

I agree Trump does not care a whit about people going hungry. Or people getting blown up on open seas. Or harming the planet. Or disappearing people. Or caring about those who are jobless due to him. The point is he may be setting stage to release food stamps and he needs to know we see through it.
Donald Trump does not care that people are going hungry. Even if someone explained to him that it’s not just “Democrats” who use food stamps he still wouldn’t care.

Someone must’ve shown Trump the worst polls for any modern president in history so now he says “I would be honored” to make food stamps available. Newsflash: no one will honor you for doing what the law requires & your stupidly in saying those who are going hungry are “Democrats“ .

Guess who has the second highest percentage of people on SNAP? Louisiana. So speaker Johnson not only are your people going to get hit with impossible health insurance premium increases, but they also desperately need nutrition. Time to stop the paid Vacation for Congress while “Rome burns”.

What we do is everything we can to organize and win elections. There are several coming up next week for starters.
And even though we see the cruel, the injustice and the stupid we need to spread it far and wide.

I call it “the circle of stupid“
1.create a problem. 2.Everyone is concerned. 3. send staff to fix it.
4. It’s still a problem.
5.Then you close the circle by trying to get credit for what staff did.
6. It would have been way better if you left it alone in the first place.

So billions for Argentina; plenty $ at Justice Dept for Trump to ask for hundreds of millions for himself; funds running over for a luxury foreign trip; plenty to pay House members who are on a longer vacation than anyone;but nothing for hungry kids & health insurance for millions.
Yes on 50 in Ca.!

I hear you. I think they believe they will win on “woke” issues. But me? I think they are asleep at the wheel. Check out all the recent elections and polling .
With respect, if they cared about winning an election, they wouldn’t be starving the employed voters, especially in Red states. Dictators don’t need votes. They buy the election systems companies.
Unemployment is in the eyes of the beholders not BLS. No data. No job. No food. No reports No problems
