Unnecessary suffering and loss. This will impact families for generations. #VaccinesSaveLives
I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

The Covid Paycheck Protection Program was an absolute free-for-all. Grifters swopped in and legitimate small businesses who desperately wanted to stay afloat and keep their employees paid, were left high and dry. #PPPFraud #CovidReliefFraud

Our convicted felon president, who pardoned Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys convicted of seditious conspiracy, wants to charge Mark Kelly, a decorated war veteran and astronaut, with seditious conspiracy.

That’s some next-level banana republic shit right there.

It's not his physical decline that's most concerning, it's his cognitive impairment. Good lord. This regime is turning into Weekend at Bernie's while the evil shadow presidents take a wrecking ball to the country (and world).

Do you really think a Department of Justice that lies to judges about grand jury indictments is going to be open and honest about the Epstein Files?

The House votes 427-1 to approve a measure that would require the Justice Department to release the Epstein files.
House votes to approve releasing the Epstein files by a near unanimous margin
The measure would compel the DOJ to release files regarding convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It now goes to the Senate, where some lawmakers want extra guardrails around what can be released.

I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

I can't even wrap my head around the amount of corruption in Cranks regime. Clean up and repair is going to be a huge undertaking.
Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

“I’d release my taxes but they’re under audit.”

“I’d release the Epstein files but they’re part of an active investigation.”

“You’ll have it in two weeks.”

America is tired of the excuses and lies.

I have a new nick name for the con job the SCOTUS has given so much power to: Crankles or Cranks. Even his cankles are angry.
