HE said he'd fix it all on the first day: wars, grocery prices, inflation, the economy, relationships with our friendly (and unfriendly) countries, and more. Eight months in and NOTHING is fixed. Now he's saying this time next year it will all turn around. I don't think so.

Duckworth: "He's accepting a bribe, which is unconstitutional and illegal. And he's gonna accept an aircraft that then is gonna cost taxpayers another billion dollars at a time when he wants to cut funding for Medicaid. It's simple unacceptable."

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"

Trump says children just need to live with fewer toys because of his tariffs: “Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls.”

Just hit 800k followers here! Thanks so much to all of you. Bluesky came around at just the right time and I really appreciate this platform. It's great to have a non-toxic place to discuss politics -- one where links aren't throttled and it's still mostly safe to read replies. Cheers.

Talking about DOGE cuts at his cabinet meeting today trump says, “I have no idea how it plays out in public.” Right, he has no idea what it’s like to have to live on Social Security (or without it altogether). He has no idea what it’s like to lose your job for no good reason. He has no idea what

I thought it was shameful when trump bowed down to the billionaires to bring them to his administration. But that was nothing compared to what he did today when he openly bowed to putin. I fear we are done as a world power and a free democracy, maybe forever.

It only took a little more than a month for trump to bring our country to what we saw today. He turned on our friends and allies and cozied up to putin and the dictators of the world. I hope this is not the end of the country I have loved, but I fear it might be.

Of course it is true that MAGA cult doesn’t care that their news sources are lying to them about No Tax on Tips passing. Because truth is largely irrelevant when there are libs to be owned and an Orange God who needs worshipping.
