The media made a HUGE deal out of "basket of deplorables" and "cling to their guns or religion."
But, of course, it will totally ignore Trump saying he hates Democrats: "I hate them. I believe they hate their country."

in addition to his "shylocks" comment, i can't imagine the media backlash if Biden said anything like from this screenshot - that he "hates Republicans" - and i'm also tired of having this "IMAGINE IF BIDEN!" thought experiment but it's just a constant reminder of the double standards

I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!

Emanuel: I worked for two administrations that tirelessly fought to get us out of a recession. And now we have an administration that just shrugs and says, “Well, there could be a little pain here.”
Well, if you have 11 billionaires in your cabinet, what do you know about pain?

All this business I am reading about social security is nonsense. My mom died on 2/18. My dad got a letter yesterday informing him her benefits were ending and he had to repay the February payment because they don’t give a payment in the month someone dies. They know where every dollar is.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

My dad is a Vietnam vet. Drafted. Purple heart. I am named after a friend of his killed in action. He's 80. I feel so bad for him and all the vets that gave so much only to have our influence pissed away by a felon. Sad times indeed

This happened the same day the Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee rick-rolled their base over the Epstein Files.
Almost seems like a deliberate effort to troll the rubes who believed them.

You can’t make this stuff up. Trump supporters spent the past few years obsessing over an apparent sex trafficking cabal in charge of our country. And yet one of the first things Trump seems to have done, apparently, is push to get the Tates, charged with sex trafficking, released from Romania.
Andrew Tate and His Brother Are Said to Leave Romania for the U.S.
Andrew and Tristan Tate, the online influencers, are facing investigations in Romania and Britain, including accusations of human trafficking and sex crimes.

Why would this lady think that trump would agree to make IVF free? I don't know if she did, but MAGA was always going on about socialism, etc., not wanting anyone to receive assistance from the government. We have done a disservice to our young people by not teaching critical thinking.
