The Republican Party not working for the average American.
December 12, 2025 at 10:53 PM
Republicans are attempting to destroy the working class. They can afford anything that helps the billionaires and themselves, yet we get nothing; anything that would help us is not affordable. It's the Republicans who are not affordable for the ordinary Americans.

Trump said: "We keep it, I guess... I assume we're going to keep the oil." This quote makes it clear, Trump is not calling the shots. Trump has no idea what is happening around him. So who is in charge of our government? It could very well be the fascists in the White House.

Women should be seen but not heard. One thing is certain: Women, people of color, and people of Jewish descent who still support the MAGA Republicans should question why they do, because the white male MAGA Republicans do not support them. MTG even thinks so.

"Fox couldn’t hack the UK’s accuracy-in-the-news legal requirement and stopped trying to broadcast there several years ago. In result, EU audiences are better equipped to discern fact from fiction than far right audiences in the US."

“Foreclosures are surging,” CBS News reported last month, “as U.S. homeowners grapple with rising costs.” So are auto repossessions.

ABC News in November reported that “Americans’ household debt levels – including mortgages, car loans, credit cards and student loans – are now at a new record high.”

Everyone is making money during the Trump administration. Except ordinary people who don't have the money to bribe, or the position enabling them to steal, or the connections to make shady deals. Corruption at its finest.

If a SAS passenger jet attempted to land in Caracas on a routine flight, would Trump order it shot down? Would a fighter pilot obey such an order? This is how crazy it has become because Trump wants the oil and/or to build resorts on the beaches. Do you really believe it's about drugs? It's about $$
November 30, 2025 at 8:57 PM
This is not about drugs; Trump just pardoned one of the biggest drug dealers. This is about oil; Venezuela has it, Trump wants it. He is willing to put our military men and women at risk to get it. For oil! The real question: when will the Republicans in Congress grow a spine and do their jobs?
