- It’s the anniversary of Krystallnacht , November 9-10, 1938, when the Nazis rampaged across Germany destroying Jewish property and Jewish lives.
- NO KINGS DAY was great. Not as Republicans said, with American haters, but the most patriotic Americans of all. PS. Republicans responsible for shutdown, don’t believe their lies.
- trumf and his goons are creating a roster of scares, that will keep the people in a perpetual state of fear: Blue Scare, tylenol scare, immigrant scare, drug runners, comedians
- vance is vacationing in England. Didn’t just have kayaking time, following time at Disney World, after skiing? It’s only been 8 months. When does he find the time to work?
- Congress is not asleep at the wheel, it’s dead. It’s committed suicide allowing Bove to become a lifetime appeals judge. Another branch of government falling apart. How much longer can we survive?
- trumf has so many on his retribution list, it makes Nixon’s enemies list look like a love note. But we’re all so busy mocking him and musk’s schoolyard brawl.that we’re ignoring the seriousness of a president ignoring the citizens.
- Tell me it isn’t so, even trumf couldn’t be so cruel to deport a child who desperately needs care she can only get here in the US and might die in days after she’s deported.
- Stephen Miller, the Prince of Darkness has reportedly said trumf wants to do away with habeas corpus, the foundation of our country. This must be Miller’s fever dream. I can’t imagine even SCOTUS would allow this, since we’re not under attack( except from trumf).
- As a longtime union member (publicists’ guild), I salute all the protests today, May Day, on behalf of all workers, union and not-yet-unionists, who just want to have food on the table, a roof overhead and education for their children.
- @maddow.msnbc.com What can be done to aid the Oklahoma family who were terrorized and robbed of all their possessions and cash. Where are the protesters? What’s happened to them?
- 100 days: cruel, inept, dumb, illegal, chaotic, disgusting. Just getting started but it would take another hundred days to finish how bad it is.
- Trump's handling of immigration drops underwater after Democrats fight back against ICE overreach and violations of civil liberties. app.sosha.ai/s/rLSHr0BX
- I know he doesn’t care about the truth and also has no sense of shame, but targeting Act Blue when they’re scrupulously transparent while he’s promoting dinner with the president by selling memes that go directly into his pocket Is again mind-boggling.
- #Handsoffmysocialsecurity We all need to send out posts to congress and social media protesting cuts to social security and medicare. Let’s make a loud noise.
- I can’t bear to be living in a country that deports an innocent man to a hellhole of a prison and refuses to return him, scoffing at the idea that it should. What kind of monsters are these in our administration?
- Protests good, security firings bad. Judge Boasberg good, SCOTUS bad. Musk complaining about tariffs good, ICE grabbing people off the street very bad. Did you ever expect this to be daily life in U.S.???
- The protests across the country are wonderful, but I hope they begin to have an effect on Republicans in Congress who are too scared to hold town hall meetings. If trumf doesn’t primary you, the voters will.
- Another shameful day for America, with trumf and vance arguing with Zelensky when he tries to correct their lies. it’s not enough they were trying to extort him, they want him to be a “good boy” and be quiet.
- How do we get rid of Musk and his Doge-ettes ? All I hear is a recitation of the wrongs he is wreaking, which I know. What I don’t know is how we fire him, effective immediately.
- The military, the one bastion we could rely on has been compromised with the firings and changes at the top. Can we be sure that they won’t follow illegal orders and help trumf take down our country? Who’s going to stop them if they are given orders to take over civilian rule.? Or shoot protestors?
- it’s heartening to see citizens and Democrats in Congress protesting but trumf and must keep steamrolling over us. We have to hope to god the courts including SCOTUS hold out against them.
- Tulsi Gabbard and Robert Kennedy Jr in one week. Mitch McConnell voting no. If he had only helped convict at the second impeachment, we wouldn’t be in this mess. His influence is toothless. Kash Patel is on his way next. Not one major confirmation with any competence for their job.
- He spews words , seeing what will stick, hoping it makes everyone hysterical, afraid more every day. How do we stop him? Republicans have all drunk the Kool-Aid, they’ve been taken over by the pod- people. And Elon, even worse than trumf.Three years, ten months, three weeks.
- The inmates are running the asylum and all the medical staff have been out to pasture.Three years and eleven months to go unless we blow up first.
- trumf administration is firing FBI employees from top to bottom, but it’s ILLEGAL to do this to civil service employees. What is happening? Where does this leave us? People will sue, but in the meantime, we’re left vulnerable to many threats from around the world.
- Only trumf can exploit a tragedy and turn it into a racist, misogynistic rant, while his press secretary lies about Biden sending condoms to Gaza. Only three years, eleven months to go.
- I’ve lived through McCarthyism, Nixonism, Vietnam, 9/11, assassinations of JFK, RFK, MLK, trumf 101. This is the most scared I’ve ever been. There used to be two political parties to count on. All the Republicans have drunk the Kool-Aid. Democrats have to lead us out of this darkness. NOW!
- For those of us in a panic due to the administration’s daily chaos, what can we do right now, that has some affect?
