Texas Republicans have a lot of nerve saying, "They are doing right by Texans."

By gerrymandering an already gerrymandered state even further at the direct order of Trump because those same Texans are going to vote them all out? Is that the "right thing" Greg says they are doing?

Texas has fallen to fascism. The FAFO state of my childhood has turned into the Trump stronghold. The 50th state in personal freedoms. It's congress is rolling progress back 50-100 years. "Papers Please" checkpoints have started in Galveston county.

I've never been so ashamed of my State...

Remember America, we have to tighten our belts so Trump can golf and have a pity parade for his birthday. No need for DOGE to check this out....

So if the Executive Branch just says no to the Judicial Branch and the Legislative Branch now has HALF the members just refusing to speak/debate with the other half then... WTF is the next step?

Where is the balance of power if it was all resting on the Executive Branch cooperating?

The most justified police shooting ever recorded in the history of America has been turned into a wrongful death suit by the Trump DOJ which it then SETTLED for 30 MILLION DOLLARS.

Republicans say it is a payment for patriotic sacrifice.
My SGLI was only worth $400,000 for dying will serving.

Pete had a commercial "dirty" line installed IN THE PENTAGON.

I need the same energy y'all had about those emails.

Separation of Church and State. One of the core principals in America.

Except with Trump and his AG who have decided to make another task force to investigate religion. We got Judaism and Christianity... What are the odds Trump makes a task force to investigate anti-Islam activities? I'll wait...

Trump knows you cannot file for bankruptcy for a nation, right? RIGHT???

Free thinkers are dangerous!!!

Why do you think the Trump admin went after Education, Media and Judiciary?

Texas SB 38 is nothing but removal of due process from renters. It has nothing to do with squatters. If passed, you can be evicted for anything, at anytime, by off-duty plain clothes officers. The landlords only needs to give you five (5) days with NO COURT APPROVAL. NO TO SB38!! #NOTXSB38

The right to due process. That was the whole point of America!!!

Israel has been committing a decades long genocide on the Palestinian people under the protection of the Western powers because of the overwhelming responsibility the world felt for what happened to Jewish people under the Nazi regime. Full stop. Australia is just the latest arms dealer.

So let me get this straight... The waste and abuse Speaker Johnson says is in the Medicaid program is a dollar amount LESS THAN A SINGLE GENOCIDE PAYMENT TO ISRAEL? But, American Healthcare is our problem? Got it...

Our Grifter-in-Chief is openly playing the stock market for his benefit using our retirements. And he celebrated on TV with the other billionaire players. Are we great yet?

Never forget that the Opioid/Fentanyl Crisis was CREATED by a partnership between Big Pharma and the US govt.

It was easier to sedate us than to fix us.

I had an "event" on Sunday. It was bad. I hit a point where I really needed the Veteran's Crisis Hotline. Trump axed it 3 days prior. I'm still here... Existing on rage and spite. #FDT

And there it is. We have not been invited to the military conference in Paris for Ukraine. We have been deemed a security threat. Donald Trump and his goons have destroyed the USA's reputation as a global beacon for democracy in two months. ARE WE GREAT YET?

Police protect money before people. We saw that today.

I took an oath to the constitution. I swore to protect this country from all enemies, both foreign and domestic. I still believe in that oath. How far do we go before our counter-terrorism training kicks in?
