Tired of winning.
The stock market has lost
$4 TRILLION
In the last month due to Trump’s disastrous tariff plans
Plus the jobs numbers were equally terrible
The price of eggs keeps going up
And the GOP is STILL threatening to cut Medicaid by $880 billion so they can give tax breaks to billionaires

The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled.
This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

As Trump now actively helps Russia kill Ukrainian soldiers and civilians, the silence of Republicans who used to say they were staunch supporters of Ukraine is deafening.

MUSK LOSES BIG IN GERMANY
Germany’s CDU/CSU wins big, while the far-right AfD underperforms in second—despite backing from Elon Musk and JD Vance.
AfD is now likely to be completely shut out of the governing coalition.

I’m afraid Donald Trump has shattered the very foundation of the presidency—and in the process, wounded the soul of this nation.
I don’t know if we can ever fully put it back together. But if we can, it’s gonna take years. And it’s gonna take a helluva lot of work.

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

The ‘American First’ crowd is awfully quiet about Trump’s pledge to build free housing for 2 million Palestinians in some random country they don’t want to go to that also doesn’t want them. I’m sure this will all work out fine and that’s what people thought they were voting for.
