It still boggles my mind that so many people couldn't grasp last year how significantly more morally depraved a second Trump term would be in comparison to the first. And how so many people still can't comprehend that our national crisis isn't about politics, but simple morality.

The elected leader of our country is attacking our schools & universities, our government resources, and our security & freedom as US citizens. This is unlike anything we’ve ever experienced in this would-be free nation.

Presidential terrorism.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Come to think of it, that’s how he views most of the government.
Why did Trump have himself put in charge of the Kennedy Center?

Because he knows that the educated and cultured people who patronize it despise him.

So he seeks revenge. And he knows that his being in charge of the center will destroy it.

Several times a day I say to my husband - can you even believe this is happening? Seriously- the law being broken before our very eyes, whole departments being shut down, aid to the poorest canceled etc etc etc. will they get away with it? Will we lose our country?

It's an old song. But I think it has a vibe for today's stress.

Many of us worked very hard for the past 18 months to make this happen. We’re advocating a still larger disbursement at zero taxpayer expense. Please indicate whether you agree that ALL Russian sovereign funds frozen in the US because of its illegal aggression against Ukraine should be used this way

📌Under Joe Biden:

-Record 16 million jobs created
-Lowest average unemployment rate of any administration in 50 yrs
-Incomes up $4,000 over prices
-Inflation at world-best 2%
-Economy grew more than any presidential term this century

Dems lose election because of economy.
Absolutely INSANE.

Watching #Separated. I’ll never forget that press conference when @briankarem.bsky.social pressed Sarah huckabee - “Sarah you’re a parent. These people come here with nothing. Don’t you have any empathy?” And she just won’t answer. Thank you for your reporting @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social
