Fact-check: True
Pretty disappointed in the Democrats (besides Al Green) being spineless while Trump turned the House into a campaign rally.
Every Democrat should’ve been thrown out for disrupting his dumpster fire of a speech. This weakness is a great way to lose our democracy - those lil signs were weak as hell!!

Red-faced and yelling, “Don’t tell me how to feel”, is peak snowflake whininess from Trump. And in service to Russia 🤦♂️

The DOGE guys didn’t just make one $8B mistake in their savings list — “they are getting it wrong with alarming consistency”
They don’t seem to understand how these things are calculated.

Trump’s sweeping freeze on U.S. foreign assistance has threatened programs intended to counter al-Shabab bombmakers, contain the spread of al-Qaeda across West Africa, and secure Islamic State prisoners in the Middle East.
Trump’s global funding freeze leaves anti-terror programs in limbo
U.S. officials say now-suspended programs across Africa were designed specifically to respond to national security threats and contain the spread of terrorism.

Some of DOGE’s efficiency pushes like digitizing ancient by-hand processes are great, but that doesn't excuse any lies like the fake “funding for magic” thing or the research projects that conservatives are whining about.
They're trying to spin anything into a story that they can just to look good

Almost all conversations I have with a conservative irl start with them being super interested in the discussion like they could carry on for an hour, but just a tiny amount of logical pushback is met with, “Well, I don't really want to talk about this.”

‘BACK TO PLASTIC!’: Why Trump is coming after paper straws again
President Trump vowed to sign an executive order ending a Biden-era effort to phase out single-use plastics — including straws — across the government by 2027.

I despise people whining about having to hear so much breaking news about Trump’s bad policies. See it on social media and irl.
People would rather tune out and ignore everything because they “can’t handle it.”

Normally wouldn't like Canada and Mexico specifically targeting red states with counter-tariffs because that feels like foreign political interference…
HOWEVER, we can let it slide this time 😂. I hate Trump’s tariffs but MAGAts need to learn a lesson on voting responsibly.

While I side with / vote Democrat and dislike Trump, my true loyalty is to logic. Blaming Trump for egg prices seems ridiculous, especially when other countries are experiencing bird flu-related shortages, too.
Haven’t been any eggs where I live for several weeks, too, bc of bird flu (Australia)

I thought Trump coming out with a scripted deflection so quickly looked suspicious, but now I’ve seen people suggesting there weren't enough air traffic controllers.
If true and caused by all of his bs and buyout stuff, then it's 100% his fault and explains why his team jumped into blaming mode
