More simply:Trumpβs only loyalty is to Trump.
Itβs always the people, the everyday you and me, just in different countries, who suffer from this illegitimate US administrationβs games.
There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Just so senseless. Why do the good die young? Because evil bastards wage ego wars.
This is the FIRST I am hearing of this.
What the actual fuck?

We will look back on Biden with appreciation as we dig through the rubble of Sweet Potato Hitler 2, the revenge.
Representative Yassamin Ansari (AZ-03), the first Iranian-American Democrat elected to the U.S. Congress, released a statement on the U.S. attack on Iran, which read in excerpt, "...as a U.S. Congresswoman sworn to uphold the Constitution and protect the American people, I am deeply concerned by President Trumpβs decision to launch an illegal, dangerous war without Congressional authorization. Under Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution, the power to declare war rests solely with Congress. Consistent with my previous votes, public statements, and the consensus in my district, I believe no presidentβRepublican or Democratβhas the authority to launch military strikes of this magnitude without Congressional approval..."

Iβm preaching to the choir posting here. But if we get through to 1 person that still has an iota of critical thinking it might be 1 less suckling on the FOX titty supporting lying, killing, looting, prepare-for-the-rapture shit-brained evil of the illegitimate assholes whoβve usurped our democracy.
Sounds like he needs a dose of fallen arches to go with his bone spurs.
Say brilliant geeks break crypto and the economy as we know it. $$$ creeps become instantly poor. Weβd suffer, but weβre already deemed exendable by the creeps. No more stealing from us to build bunkers or fuel wet dreams about colonizing Mars. See how they do against us on an even playing field.
The Minneapolis ICE protester called CBS, accusing them of pushing ICE propaganda and burying the truth. The Trump regime has been able to bully CBS into turning over their news department to one of its allies.
Kamala Harris just threw her weight behind Jasmine Crockett in the Texas Senate race π₯
To understand Donald Trump you have to understand the dynamics of domestic violence.
Abuse with abandon and take no responsibility for anything. Lie and gaslight and never admit youβre wrong. Demand loyalty and lash out when your power is questioned.
Punish and blame. Power and control.
Trump.
Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: βI received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.β
We're supposed to learn from history and change laws accordingly.
After Nazi Germany, and the rest of the dictators that came before, there's no excuse for allowing a repeated situation.
It insanity.
Demand change, find the off ramp from fascism.
It's being permitted.
Cyclical.
Is Donald Trump working for you?
We all know the answer is no.
Theyβre not just followers: Theyβre active participants and profiteers.
Itβs about time we ascribed them agency instead of pretending theyβre all hapless fools who will wake up from that manβs hypnotic spell.
Join us again tomorrow Wednesday at Independence Ave and New Jersey across from Longworth House office building from 4-7pm.
Keep calling your members of Congress and tell them to support a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.

$170 BILLION diverted from healthcare, food & education to build a surveillance state tracking people in homes, schools & places of worshipβwithout oversight. That's not achievement, it's crisis manufacturing. #TrumpsStateOfDelusion

The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028.
He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028.
He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028.

The mayorβs office is working with dozens of advocacy groups to teach constitutional observer courses βto train people how to engage in videotaping without interfering with ICE operationsβ and with local law enforcement on procedures when emergency calls about ICE sightings come in.
Trump cannot cancel the midterms. States run federal elections. He has no power over, and no role in, federal elections. Re Congress, he's just a guy watching the results just like anyone else. We, the people, hold the power. No fear. Be inspired. We vote. We organize. WE decide. #Sheshed
According to a recent report by the CATO institute every year since 1994 immigrants have paid more in taxes than they received in benefits from the federal, state, and local governments. #SOTU #SOTU2026 #TrumpsStateOfDelusion
