Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Trump sure as hell did not make America great today.

Trump’s trade war was always a losing game, and today he caved—because even the right was panicking. This wasn’t strength, it was damage control. We all lose in a trade war.

The President is asking rhetorical questions about what federal government aircraft was doing, as if there's someone else who is supposed to have the answer. This is his responsibility. If he doesn't even know the answers, it's because he and his unqualified appointees are incompetent.
“Commander in Chief” jumps to throw military crew under the bus before any details are known. Coward.

We no longer have a leader in the White House but a conman who’s #1 goal is always to dodge responsibility.

Next time a R or D says “respect the office” remind them the President himself doesn’t.

Trump & his MAGA lapdogs in Congress are coming for the VA—if they pull it off, your healthcare is next. They want to hand everything over to insurance companies, where profits come first & people die waiting for care. Vulnerable seats or not, we need to shut this down!

Save! Veterans! Healthcare!

🟠 supporters think eliminating federal aid & other cuts will find its way to their pockets.

The true shock & awe will arrive when they discover not only are they losing benefits & programs THEY depend upon-

That $ is going to be funneled to fund tax cuts to the wealthiest among us-

Not them.
