Repubs won’t even acknowledge that Dems are trying to keep health insurance premiums from skyrocketing for 20+ million Americans?
They are just going pretend that isn’t happening & keep repeating this “free healthcare for illegals” bs?
What do the 20+ million think about that?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

i'm not holding anyone's hand when i say this, but when a book's goal is to make you feel uncomfortable and then it succeeds in doing so, that doesn't make it problematic. that's the book delivering on its promise.

I feel pretty sorry for all those MAGA sheep who blindly gobbled up Trump's bullshit lies that "the Russia-Ukraine war would've never happened if I was president! The Israel-Gaza war would've never happened if I was president!"

Obama stopped Iranian nuclear development (or seriously slowed it) with an agreement. Trump tore up the deal in 2018 and has made the world more dangerous every moment he has been president since then.

100 days into this administration and working people are still getting left behind. Our costs are up, our services are gutted and our rights are under attack. We need a gov that works for us—not just the wealthy. Every American deserves a fair shot and a voice that counts, and I’m not backing down.

Two things can be true:
President Biden’s economy looked good on paper, yet working class people struggled AND President Trump’s economy is getting worse and working class people are starting to struggle even more.
The ruling class wants us to argue about who is better.
