So, now the response any time someone complains about high egg prices is “You must be a liberal. Trump done lowered them egg prices.” I’m still paying >$6 a dozen, so not seeing lower prices. Why is everything a Gotcha! statement for MAGA? Quit looking for the bogeyman & enjoy life ❤️

I’m a Christian but don’t want to live under a theocracy. One less-than-obvious reason is so many folks who claim to be a Christian have almost no idea what that means.

Tell me you support fascism without telling me you support fascism. A lot of self-proclaimed “Patriots” and defenders of the Constitution support Spartz and others of her ilk in the GOP. It really IS a constitutional crisis in many ways.
Republican Congresswoman Victoria Spartz just claimed at a town hall that people in America are not guaranteed the constitutional right to due process: “You break the law, you don't have due process.”

U.S. military pilots are furious—lives were put at risk when Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon leaked flight plans for a live mission over Signal.

Pilots were in the air while targets and timing were being texted.

This wasn’t just a mistake. It was a failure of leadership.

Ya know, I used to love watching The Apprentice. One thing Trump always admonished the team leaders with is that the leader is always responsible, so is why he often “fired” the failing team lead. Now that he’s POTUS, he takes ZERO responsibility for anything.

If you’re someone’s Facebook friend but never interact with them unless it’s to disagree or point out the error of their ways, then it’s probably best to remain silent. The same applies if you only show up to “like” the comment by others who fit that same description.

Some Oklahoma politicians want to slip the 2020 “stolen election” lie into the state’s social studies standards? Trying their best to create their own Lost Cause manipulation in order to try & salvage Trump’s legacy. Really kinda sad and makes him seem even more pathetic.

Translation: “It’s only okay when the bias is in my favor.” - more red flags that MAGA will support while still claiming to support the Constitution. Me thinks a lot of folks don’t really know what a patriot is.
Wow, Trump thinks that politically biased outlets should be illegal?

Huh, I wonder which ones he mentions here? Fox News? OANN? The NY Post?
Trump: "These newspapers are really no different than a highly paid political operative. And it has to stop. It has to be illegal ... it just cannot be legal."

If your response to any criticism of Trump is “but the Democrats” then you don’t have a good argument. The same applies if you think every opinion is valid and accuse me of trying to be superior to someone. No, just some things are objectively bad/wrong.

POTUS selling Teslas? So embarrassing. MAGA will buy some despite railing against EV cars for years. Kinda wondered how Elon being co-President would work itself out. 🤦‍♂️
holy shit -- Trump was reading from a literal Tesla sales pitch, complete with pricing, during his White House event with Elon Musk. (Andrew Harnik/Getty)

Let them play these stupid games while the economy crashes. Don’t take the bait. Ted can talk about Ben & Jerry’s while we talk about people having to work another 5 years because their retirement got wiped out by Trump.

The economy!

There are plenty of studies proving there is no connection. Can we just go back to a time before the internet made everyone “experts” - I sound like the old guy yelling at the clouds but for all its benefits, it seems the negatives are beginning to outweigh the positives.

I got blamed for “hiding behind Twitter” for something I posted despite my Twitter being completely open to the public. Ruffled some MAGA feathers. The past 5 years the only people that have unfriended me on FB and/or blasted me have been MAGA, and they call others “snowflakes” 🤷🏼‍♂️

Didn’t watch the POTUS speech but sounds like it was a doozy. Transgender mice? Not even close. Let’s try transgenic….LOL. Where does he come up with this stuff? 🤦‍♂️

Prices on the rise, he’s telling people to raise chickens (because he just shoots from the hip and has no clue), the stock market is taking a beating, & he’s burning bridges w/ allies via trade wars & name calling. Top it off w/ cozying up to Russia. Yet, diehard MAGA follow him blindly.

I decided a long time ago that I’m not going debate anyone who believes the January 6 rioters were political prisoners. I always try to respect others and learn from everyone because I’m not an expert, but not much room for discussion with someone who denies reality. Kinda like flat earthers.

My 11 year old rolls his eyes whenever Trump speaks. Even kids can know he makes stuff up.

I was a lifetime Republican & now Independent. I’ve had my fair share of political conversations over the years & the most mean-spirited responses I’ve received over any comment hasn’t been over any issue…it has been about my disdain for DJT, & it’s not even close. But it’s not a cult 🤪

It’s not difficult: Russia invaded Ukraine and the war would be over if they left. Any narrative that has Ukraine as the bad guy is asinine, as is the notion that Trump is being tough. We don’t need a President that bows to a dictator.

Tonight I think of all the old men who spent a lifetime screaming to everyone about Russians infiltrating America only to end their lives as ardent defenders of Russia.

A lifetime that is ending with a giant "NEVERMIND!!"

What happened in the Oval Office on Friday — the obviously planned ambush of Zelensky by Trump and Vance — was something that had never happened in the nearly 250-year history of this country!

Our president sided with the aggressor, the dictator and the invader of Ukraine!

Trump’s behavior in the Oval Office with Zelensky was an unparalleled break with American foreign policy.

As someone who grew up during the Cold War, having a POTUS who walks in step with the evil Putin over the leader of a country he invaded should be the line, but it’s not. The MAGA faithful have no grasp of reality, or history.

He’s a bully but hardcore MAGA people won’t admit it. That would make my “No” that much stronger. Can I PLEASE have a phone call with him? I bet hanging up on him mid rant would do him in 🤣🤣🤣
Trump screamed GOP Rep. Victoria Spartz into submission on his disastrous budget bill. The Indiana congresswoman claimed Wednesday she was a “hard no” — but that was before Spartz took a furious phone call from Trump, whose screaming could be heard by her colleagues across the Republican cloakroom.
