Kindness matters, no BS, politically observant. Never TFG, we can be the change.
I’ve been very absent from social media lately. Question-how do we deal with loved ones who are in denial of what’s happening in our country?

Free speech for thee, but not for me. Cancel culture perfectly okay for me, but not for thee, such hypocrisy!

I’ve seen so many posts from misled republicans citing the success of getting rid of waste &fraud, they have no idea that there is no investigation into this, it’s just cut, with no regard to what they’re cutting.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is definitely one of the good ones.

Today he HAMMERED Trump with a detailed list of all the prices that are going up because of Trump's trade wars.

Make sure everyone sees this.

After Trump’s 2018 steel tariffs, sales at Mid-Continent Steel fell more than 50%, prompting 80 layoffs. Ford: tariffs took $750 million off its bottom line; cutting workers' profit-sharing by $750 each. GM: tariffs cost $1 billion, enough to pay more than 10,000 employees. (WSJ)

The other day I watched a rep from “Palestinians for Trump”, a group created to get TFG elected. Now they’re “Palestinians for peace”. Created to elect TFG, now they realize he lied. Such a minimal amount of research to discover all he does is lie.

support what he is doing now. They might have voted for him, but the 1/3 I'm speaking of..do NOT support this bullshit.

That means at LEAST 90-100 million of the 156,302,318 million people who voted in 2024...do NOT suuport what he is doing right now.

Most of us...hate the motherfucker. 2/2

To the good people of the rest of the world, I am reaching out to you to say this:

Focus your anger on Donald Trump.

While his title might suggest it, he does NOT represent the United States of America.

The election results are misleading. I would estimate at least 1/3 of Republicans do NOT 1/2
