Our Constitution does not REQUIRE us to worship and sing praises about the POTUS.
Trump and MAGAts spoke badly about Joe Biden when Biden was the POTUS every single day from 2021 to 2025.
Our Constitution has not changed since Jan 20, 2025 no matter what Trump believes!

Rule of law, no one is above the law. Not the DOJ, NOT TRUMP! We owe our allegiance to the Constitution of the United States. We do not have a king!

@schumer.senate.gov Schumer failed in showing leadership yesterday. He has forgotten the needs of the people who elected him and why they voted for him -- time to pass the baton to next generation of Dems to lead.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Martin Luther King Jr. said that “the ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge.” We are in a time of challenge.
The question for every leader, every citizen is where do you stand?

Any health insurance company that has a 32% claims denial rate shouldn't be allowed to exist. It is no longer a legitimate business.

Can't wait to see the cost of eggs in January 2025 😀
Trump posts that he will implement a 25% tariff on all products coming into the United States from Mexico and Canada his first day in office and will add an additional 10% tariff above current levels on products imported from China.
Buckle up for higher prices!
