It just hit me… Trump is pulling an American Brexit via tariffs and unpredictable trade policy. Russia and China gleefully supported Brexit and you can be sure they support this fuckery. #AmericanBrexit #BadEndings

Looks like we weren’t the only ones who’d rather get a root canal than watch Trump lie about protecting the Constitution.
His second inauguration tanked at just 24.59M viewers—less than Biden’s 33.76M in 2021 and even his own 30.64M in 2017.
Team Trump will lie about this, so spread the word!

Each year, approximately 530,000 American families file for bankruptcy due to medical bills, accounting for 66.5% of all personal bankruptcies in the U.S. 66% of those bankrupted families had health insurance. Maybe our newly elected billionaires will fix it?

There’s that fiscal responsibility we’ve come to expect from the GOP /s
Donald Trump apparently wants to suspend the debt ceiling for 2 years in the new CR bill.
"Suspending the debt ceiling" means temporarily halting the legal limit on how much the U.S. government can borrow to meet its financial obligations.
Basically, they can spend whatever without voting on it.
