Donald Trump is using the U.S. treasury and our tax dollars like it’s his personal piggy bank. And just like he squandered hundreds of millions given to him by dear old dad, he’s squandering our money now.

TRUMP, JUNE 24, 2026: “We should be, in my opinion, at $2.25 right now at the pump.” EVERYONE: We agree. Except you’re the president, you started a war you can’t even explain, and now gas is $4.48 a gallon and predicted to skyrocket again. You fucked everything up‼️

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $8 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of American households is worth just $4.27 trillion. Read that back. Remember: Wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power.

I’m sorry but in defense of red tape: that’s why there is a long process and many steps to the completion of a federal project of this size Lots of people working out the best way to do it and then getting multiple bids from qualified contractors It’s frustratingly slow but largely effective

Joe Biden on September 11th, 2001: We should be calm, collect the information, and analyze what we know happened. This cannot be dealt with overnight. This nation is too big, too strong, too united, too much a power in terms of our cohesion and values to let this break us apart, and it won't happen

Biden accused by GOP of 'bribing' voters with student loan forgiveness
The Biden administration unveiled its latest effort to forgive as much as $20,000 in debt for some borrowers on Monday after the Supreme Court struck down its original plan last year.

I’m not sure I agree that case is precedent here. What happened in Dallas wasn’t just "a candidate's offer of ideas to the voter[s]"—which is what would have happened had TRUMP been on the ballot and he promised a new $5,000 policy if HE won—but telling voters they’ll be paid for voting for OTHERS.

Ok so Trump is *promising* that he will pay every American adult $5,000 if Republicans win the House & Senate. And as I’m sure other astute observers are noting, that’s essentially a taxpayer-backed, congressionally unapproved $1.3 trillion bribe. He’s bribing the entire country—with our own money

I keep reading legacy media reports about the daily actions of Trump, as if he were a normal president, as if he wasn’t intent on democracy’s destruction & ignoring the rule of law. This crook has gotten away with crimes all his life because he was not judged clearly as a criminal flouting the law.

After FDR cleaned up the mess created by Calvin Coolidge and blamed on Herbert Hoover, Democrats spent decades reminding voters what the two parties had done. In recent generations, that basic act of politicking has been deemed impolite by Democratic leaders. That needs to end.
