MAGA = American Taliban
This will be the biggest test of our democracy in our lifetime.

America has gone off the rails. Glad to see the madness has not spread to Canada.
Please watch PM Carney's speech. Powerful, and in my view as a political scholar, 100% accurate. We must stop living within the lie.

The problem is not Trump. The problem is us. The US has the highest prison population in the world, but we refused to throw one rich white criminal pedophile in prison for his many crimes, including J6. Trump, his cronies, and the entire world see that he is untouchable, so the madness continues.
Jack Smith testifying will be satisfying on one level, but primarily it will be deeply frustrating. Trump should have been prosecuted for J6, should not be President. I think this is mostly on Merrick Garland, who will go down in history for his failure.

You can see the power in controlling the means of communication. The very richest, who control that means, have convinced the very dumbest that a criminal pedophile who tried to overthrow his own government is their savior, and we are now dealing with the result. It all should have ended right here.

I have an idea, let's form a security alliance to protect the north from China and Russia, we can call it TrumpATO. While NATO is a total failure, TrumpATO will be the biggest success in the history of the world
"Should we vote to give more money to the people shooting my constituents in the face?" is not a complicated political question. And yet, Democrats don't seem able to answer it.

Yeah, but at least billionaires got another tax break to buy another jet and boat, that's what really matters.

Tapping retirement savings. Researching a move to a different country. Dropping health insurance altogether. These are the stories of Americans who are struggling to pay rising health care premiums after Obamacare subsidies expired.

We heard from 300 people about what they are paying in health insurance premiums after Affordable Care Act subsidies expired.

In Trump's America, you can steal as much as you want as long as you retain enough money to buy a pardon, you are good to go.
Bernie Madoff was just ahead of his time. If it were today, he would be pardoned.
🚨NEW: On the 16th anniversary of the Citizens United decision, ECU President @tiffanymuller.bsky.social and @morelle.house.gov sat down to talk about how the ruling broke our campaign finance system and took power away from everyday Americans.

Will no other members of the House GOP speak the truth like Massie does? They are all enablers of Trump’s corruption and power grabs.

Instead of the light on the hill, we are now the most hated nation on the planet, and there is only one reason why: Donald Trump.

The very richest have convinced the very dumbest that a criminal pedophile is their savior, and we are now dealing with the result.

Bullshit. These people have shown there is no bottom in their quest to retain personal power. J6 is now a day of love for them.
No one is coming to save us, certainly not the GOP.

It all should have ended right here.

The Citizens United decision empowered Trump to lead the most corrupt administration in American history.

Here’s Senator Mark Kelly saying the quiet part out loud:

If you haven't realized by now, there is no one coming to save us. We created this problem, and only us will get us out of it, if we still can.
January 21, 2026 at 6:16 PM
If you haven't realized it by now there is no one coming to save us. We did this to ourselves and we are the only ones who can stop it.
It’s so weird to me how people can see a democratic statement pleading with republicans to handle Trump and think it’s a strong statement
