Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 2mPresident Trump's policies have also been extremely effective at keeping elephants and deadly tigers from roaming the streets of San Diego, killing citizens at random. Heck of a job, Donny! 000
Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 6mThere MUST be consequences! We want a government that we can trust to follow the law! 000

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 1hThreatening to bomb Iran before the mid-terms is admitting that your goals are political, not strategic. Guess what? Promising NOT to bomb Iran until AFTER the mid-terms is EXACTLY the same admission. This war is about domestic politics, not national security. Always has been. 000

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 7hPresident Trump and his Administration use the law to attack opponents, but are happy to ignore it when it suits them. Even more than affordability, I believe that we want a government that we can trust. 010

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hSoooo much reckoning to be done once President Trump's Administration is out of office and we return to a Department of Justice that serves the people and not President Trump. 161
Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hI agree with this 100%! As much as Americans want affordability, I believe that we want -- most of all -- a government that we can trust. That is not the case with President Trump, his Administration, and the Congressional Republicans. Laws without consequences are worse than no laws at all. 030
Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23h^^^ THIS! ^^^ As much as Americans want affordability, I believe that we want -- most of all -- a government that we can trust.

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hThere MUST be consequences if we are ever to have any trust in our government. 000

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hThe damage is already generational. It will take decades to repair, not the least of which is the lost trust in our government both here and abroad. 000
Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hOf course! If you're not an ally, you're an adversary. I'm not surprised at all. 000
Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hGood start. But everyone who is released MUST be compensated by the government for all personal and property damages. Without consequences, there is no reason to stop doing illegal acts. We need a government that we can trust. 000
Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hPeople talk about how we're living in a "post-Truth" society. I think the bigger change is that it's now a "post-Morality" society, though to be honest, we've been working towards that for a long time. 010

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 23hWell, he only kinda owns it.... As I understand it, the land belongs to the City of Palm Beach. So he's asking the people of Palm Beach to donate the land for this retreat. And he still gets to keep his private golf club private. 040

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Universal childcare is NOT welfare. It is an investment in our people and our economy. It allows more households to be two-income families, increasing the labor force and moving more money through our communities. The extra money that they spend means more employment for local businesses. 010

Alfred Poor @alfredpoor.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Remember that President Trump's top priority above all else is to stay out of jail. He will do anything he can to delay that by just one more day. He's not going anywhere. At least, not voluntarily. 130
