The people who support $12B in corporate welfare to farms and forgave $80B in auto bailouts and forgave $700B in bank bailouts and forgave $755B in PPP loans want you to know that forgiving medical debt and student debt is socialism😐

This cave was brought to you by the mega rich, because they started feeling the pain we've all grown used to.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

When people start dying of totally treatable conditions and diseases, you can look at this chart and see who caused their deaths. No hyperbole intended.

When Russian athletes compete in world events they aren’t given a Russian flag next to their name on TV & there is no mention of Russia. Gold medalists don’t get a national anthem.

As the US commits war crimes & devolves into a violent fascist regime when will US athletes get the same treatment?

This was just last year!

9-0 Supreme Court ruling: A “government official cannot coerce a private party to punish or suppress disfavored speech on her behalf.” Moreover, "a government official cannot do indirectly what she is barred from doing directly."

"Under the plan being discussed, the FBI would treat transgender suspects as a subset of the Bureau’s new threat category, “Nihilistic Violent Extremists” (NVEs)."

If someone tries to argue with you that the Republicans are not a party of pedophile Nazi's, assume they're acting in bad faith.
The FBI Is Coming for Trans People
According to a new report, the Federal Bureau of Investigation is planning on labeling all trans people “violent extremists.”

Denying transgender service members their retirement after 15+ years of honorable service is cruel, unjust, and un-American.

They served with dignity. Now they’re being cast aside. I won’t stand for it—I’ll keep fighting for our LGBTQI+ heroes.

As the piece notes, the PragerU propaganda is being used in schools in Louisiana, Florida, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Montana, Arizona, South Carolina and Idaho.

Check with your district to see if they're using this garbage to brainwash your kids.
Friendly reminder that school administrators tend to take complaints from parents much more seriously than the same complaints from teachers. So if your kids’ school district is using PragerU stuff, please speak up.
The White House has a preferred alternative to PBS: PragerU, a nonprofit organization that specializes in creating right-leaning educational short videos for adults and children. . It may already be in countless classrooms. www.vox.com/today-explai...

1. This week, the FBI released its comprehensive crime report for 2024, which revealed that both VIOLENT CRIME and PROPERTY CRIME reached their LOWEST LEVELS SINCE THE 1960s

This a massive story. But you might not have heard about it, even if you follow the news closely.

Here's why.
Why you might not know that 2024 was America's safest year since the 1960s
An overwhelming majority of Americans, 64 percent, believe that crime increased across the country in 2024, according to a Gallup survey conducted late last year.

While the Department of Justice is meeting in secret with Ghislaine Maxwell to coach her on testimony, it is hiding from us three discs containing court-authorized recordings of her phone calls. [Source: ABC News] That is the REAL evidence. And this is a cover-up.

The deal is I punch you in the face

How about I give you $50 instead

Nope, I want to punch you

I’ll buy you dinner but no violence

Sorry, I really like to punch

Ok, what if you slap me medium-hard

It’s a punch in the face or nothing

Ok fine, punch me. I can’t be blamed for obstructing a deal

The provision of the 14th amendment that the Supreme Court unanimously wrote out of the constitution existed for a reason. Its drafters knew what would happen if you allowed insurrectionists back into power.

When AOC and Adam Kinzinger are both furious at Chuck Schumer, for the exact same reason, maybe you need to give up the idea this is just a backlash coming from far left activists.
