It has to be read in its entirety to fully appreciate the unhinged "voice" that is speaking for America right now. The countries receiving this letter have got to think we're all insane for electing this man. Here's an original: bsky.app/profile/pale...
Trump is posting his tariff "letters" to various countries on Truth Social, with Japan and South Korea posted so far. He also ends the letters with "thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Don't forget Bob Onder from Missouri 3, a DOCTOR voting to take healthcare away from his own constituents. Co-chair of the House "Pro-Life" Caucus.

"Largest Rural Declines in Federal Medicaid Spending Would Occur in States That Expanded Medicaid..." Like MISSOURI. I guess it's time to find out who our Republican congresspeople actually represent. Their constituents or Trump?

Picked also because they would LOVE to have video of liberal blue-state protesters fighting against police....ready to be played over and over again on right-wing media.

How sad that constituents can't ask legitimate questions of their congressman. Is Bob Onder afraid of what we might ask? What you recorded should be heard by everyone in his district.

The call started at 5:50pm. I got an email about it at 5:46pm, as a constituent who receives Onder's email newsletter. Sounds like I didn't miss much. The last 10 minutes I caught were bad enough.

How do you define moderate policies? Honest question. Because it seems like many blue voters may have different ideas on what it means.

Turns out voters in a very blue city wanted to hear less about things like reparations panels and having social workers replace cops and more about making the community safer and more livable.

St Louis city politics may help to explain. The progressive mayor just lost her job to a more moderate Democrat in a landslide, primarily because she focused heavily on progressive causes instead of managing basic services like trash pick-up & snow removal. And was seen by some as anti-police.

Kash really needs to up his cosplay game. Maybe call Kristi Noem for tips. If he's gonna pretend that he's qualified for a super serious important job, he should give us the full show with costume changes. Duh.

Besides the fact that this is illegal, does Trump really want to crater his support among women and be the guy who kills Hallmark movies? They're almost all made in Canada.

Serious question: Would it be possible to purchase his freedom from El Salvador and then have another country (like Canada) take him in for asylum? I'm sure that money could be crowd-funded very quickly.

Cory Booker stood up as an American hero for more than 24 hours. Chuck Schumer showed up near the very end and tried to make himself relevant. I think most of us could see who the true leader and fighter was.

I've basically provided more documentation to enter a federal building than most of the DOGE kids. But still not good enough to vote. Insane.

I got a Real ID drivers license this week, as required by federal law to fly on US airplanes and enter federal buildings. I had to bring my marriage certificate to show my name change compared to my birth certificate. But now this ID isn't good enough for voting??
