I write, edit, read, and feed my cat and grown moochers. In the summer, I sleep in my DIY campervan in beachy places. I sing, act, and make music when I can. I'm learning the fiddle. https://tammymckillip1.substack.com/profile/posts

Most people do not yet realize that we are already in a fascist dictatorship. The Supreme Court and the Congress have lain down. Media and corporations are bending the knee. Trump is consolidating his power, violating laws and the Constitution, and people are huddling in fear. 😥

I'm no national politics wiz but my vibe check has been that Poland has been begging for a reason since the first Ruskie stepped into Ukraine

CALL THEM NOW.
🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

Hey media, and hell, dems too... Stop saying DOGE is cutting programs and firing people. Congress controls the "purse" Congress controls funding. Congress is run by Republicans. So Republicans are cutting funding and firing everyone. Give them the credit they deserve.

We have a Russian president, who rolled in a Trojan horse full of Russians for his cabinet, along with a crazy cocktail of gaslit dimwits and religious zealots who hold their nose and look the other way to get their agenda advanced.

While he sells out USA and Ukraine to the highest bidder.
