Tweet by No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen referencing cuts to food assistance for hungry children, quoting a report claiming Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth oversaw $93 billion in Pentagon spending in one month, including $2 million on Alaskan king crab. The image shows Hegseth speaking and a photo of king crab legs with sauce.

I was told the GOP cares about fraud, waste and abuse.

Only question I have is, how many of us do we need to surround/block the agents and military from intimidating voters?

If we already won, why is our navy too scared to escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz?

Iran’s Control of Hormuz Means It’s Exporting More Oil Today Than Before the War Tehran is letting ships carrying its crude pass through the strait, while it scares off others that would dare.

Trump only got into Wharton after his family pulled strings and got him an interview with an official who did a "special favor" to the family. A Wharton prof later said he was "the dumbest goddamn student" he ever had.

So, yes, his admission does say a lot about how smart he is.

Robert De Niro remains one of my heroes for speaking boldly against Trump.

And when he calls people to take to the streets, I want to remind everyone that the next No Kings Day is March 28th! It needs to be the largest national and international protest against Trump & authoritarianism.

Addendum. Was an AF wife. Lived in base housing. It was OK. Majors had it better but still just OK. Generals had it better yet - still just OK. Nothing fancy. I say this in light of a pile of greedy, luxury-seeking clods voluntarily going there? Yeah. Something's up.

Trump went to Kentucky today to rally folks against Thomas Massie. Why? Massie fought to release the Epstein files. It’s what MAGA wanted and Trump promised! Make it make sense!

Pope Accepts Resignation of Bishop, 69, Accused of Brothel Visits and Theft Bishop Emanuel Shaleta, 69, was arrested last week.

Bishop Emanuel Shaleta resigned over accusations that he visited brothels and embezzled money. Many believe that behavior is pretty on-brand for the Catholic Church.

I’m absolutely livid. This is blatant government wasteβ€”reckless, outrageous, and a slap in the face to taxpayers. While he indulges himself, people across this country are struggling to survive. It’s unacceptable. Hegseth must be stopped, held accountable, and personally charged for these purchases.

In the middle of a war with gas prices spiking, Trump’s main priority today is to campaign in the district against the Republican who got the Epstein files released.

Tweet by Aaron Rupar quoting House Speaker Mike Johnson saying Republicans had a β€œhiccup” with Latino and Hispanic voters due to immigration enforcement being seen as overzealous, adding they are in β€œcourse-correction mode.” The image shows Johnson speaking at an event with a C-SPAN broadcast graphic.

I'm sorry, did he call the last 14 months of ICE abuses and murders a β€œlittle hiccup”?

Give a millionaire farmer a check and he'll vote Republican and ask for another!
Tell them to make better life choices and pull themselves up by their bootstraps, maybe in a festival setting like the Great OZ suggested!

Farmers are yet complaining again. This war (note to farmers - not a conflict) is costing them greatly - again. They still don’t get it. The war is a symptom of the disease that’s killing them. Put the blame where it belongs - the one you voted for and who is causing it. Drump. It will always be him

Democrats offered to fully fund DHSβ€”TSA, FEMA, disaster responseβ€”everything except ICE. Republicans rejected every deal and chose to block funding instead.

Stephen Miller is not above the Constitution.

Trump is not a king who can sic an army of masked thugs on whatever city he wants to punish next.

The American people are demanding reforms for ICE & CBP agents NOW.

YOU are demanding reforms.

CITIZENS are demanding they be abolished.

note the difference as your actions are not representing your constituents.

11.03.2026 19:59 πŸ‘ 8 πŸ” 1 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

We are calling for abolishment and charges for all agents. The end. You tried appeasement after his first term, and look where that got us. Across the country, conservative Democrats are losing primaries to progressives, we're done seeing Democrats get railroaded by fascists in the name of "unity".

I am one of your constituents and you do not have the facts here. The American people want ICE gone gone. Like abolished gone and everyone involved prosecuted for crimes against the American people. we don't want reform, we want abolishment. ICE is a terrorist organization at this point

Abolish ICE is the *moderate* position.

It's only been around for a couple decades, it doesn't NEED to exist, and any *conceivable* form of it being a legitimate organization is far gone with the way it's been corrupted.

Abolish ICE and consequences to those who are abusers and murderers.

We are calling for the abolishment of ICE. It cannot be reformed, the agents are criminals.
