No, we're not the same.

Actually what Americans just saw today was a prominent Republican US Senator announce he is quitting because he knows this budget is going to hurt millions of people and he was repeatedly threatened by the president and his cult for telling the truth about it.

Warnock: A budget is not just a fiscal document. A budget is a moral document. Show me your budget and I'll show you who you think matters and who doesn't. And if this awful budget were an EKG, it would suggest that our nation has a heart problem and is in need of moral surgery

Warnock: If I'm honest, there are days when I have to ask people of my faith tradition as a Christian, are we reading the same book?  The book I know says I was hungry and you fed me. I was sick, I was in prison and you visited me, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From ‘biggest crowd ever’ to ‘normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump has just signed an Executive Order that appears to officially suspend US military aid to Ukraine. The order is effective immediately. There is no denying that Donald Trump is Putin’s pawn.

If CBS settles this BS case, the money they pay Trump will pale in comparison to the drop in ratings they will experience.

🎯🎯

Who else is really looking forward to not watching the Inauguration? 👀 👎

"BREAKING: Donald Trump says he'd 'absolutely' consider taking the U.S. out of NATO. This reckless move would destabilize global security and empower authoritarian regimes.

Remember when, the Trump Administration caved to Big Pharma and broke their promise to enable Medicare drug negotiations? Do not forget it was President Biden and Democrats in Congress who actually got this done!

Amen

I might be alone on this, but I’m fairly certain cabinet officials shouldn’t continue to be CEOS of large companies; Supreme Court justices shouldn’t be accepting lavish gifts from billionaires, and former presidents accused of stealing government secrets shouldn’t have access to them again.

A Trump-appointed judge just struck down a Biden rule expanding overtime pay to 4 million working people. It's really surprising how little media coverage this has received. Trump faced no real questions about this issue during the campaign. 1/ (link) newrepublic.com/article/1886...

“As the year progressed, more Cop City protesters were arrested and charged with domestic terrorism. Then, in May, three organizers who operated a bail fund were charged with charities fraud and money laundering.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023...

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

Good point

this aged well given the news and it’s only been two days.

Can you imagine going through another pandemic with Trump as President? And with a HHS Secretary that is antivaxx. It would be pure insanity.

Breaking News: The Onion, the satirical publication, said it won a bankruptcy auction to buy Infowars, a website run by the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

The Guardian announced they have stopped posting on X, citing “disturbing content promoted or found on the platform, including far-right conspiracy theories and racism .. X is a toxic media platform and its owner, Elon Musk, has been able to use its influence to shape political discourse.”

NEW: The ONION just bough Alex Jones’ Info Wars. Not kidding. They really did.

There's a reason democracies don't let people who tried coups back into power.

Imagine living in a day and age where russia defeated us from within….and so many let it happen willfully
