Books, politics, roots reggae music and beach bars. If you don’t know the difference among they’re, there and their, or between your and you’re, keep walking. Retired and spend the winters in Jamaica. Grampa to two little girls that make my heart smile.

Every Republican in Congress owns what Trump has done, is doing and is going to do. The vast majority of it would not have been possible without their collective acquiescence and enabling. He’s emboldened by the fact that Congress refuses to function as a separate branch of govt.

Every single nomination is worse than the previous one. And the standard was subterranean to begin with. And they keep confirming them. And the reputation of America goes further into the shitter. And the American people SUFFER. I’m sure this is a FANTASTIC midterm strategy.

A sobering thought: nonpartisan historians judged Trump to be the worst president in America’s history *before* his second term started... and this term has been such a global disgrace that it’s no longer clear how to even speak of the man in historical terms.

We’re all born deeply curious, and strive to keep learning as we grow older, but if you’re a Trump supporter, you’re working overtime to make sure that learning doesn’t interfere with what you already believe.

Cartoon-ICE agent cut off the arm of the department of justice.  He says, “she failed to comply.”

This admin made a massive miscalculation about liberals. WE ARE FOR PEACE. We will peacefully protest. It’s MAGA that wants the violence and there is TONS of evidence to support that. They want violence but we wont give them that satisfaction

questions for Republican senators: killing desperately-poor kids in Africa by cutting lifesaving USAID programs wasn't too much for you? slaughtering helpless men clinging to boat wreckage in the ocean wasn't too much? how about ICE agents murdering a woman in her car?

MAGA: I voted for this! $400 million ballroom. Triumphal arch. Qatari jet. Renaming an arts center. Foreign crypto deals. Blowing up boats. Saudi golf resorts. High tariffs on goods. Record deficits. Epstein cover up. Pardons for drug traffickers and rich fraudsters.

Sen Cassidy could also say: “Yes. I was wrong.” “He should be removed.” “His policies are dangerous.” “As I doctor, here’s how we know vaccines are safe and save lives ______.” “I deeply regret my vote and commit to fighting medical disinformation that endangers the health of children and adults.”

I’m don’t know why I continue to be shocked that the man who has access to the best sources of information in the world has made zero effort to educate himself but has insisted on maintaining an almost perfect and unbroken record of being wrong on every issue involving facts #Trump

Problem with Putin negotiating with Trump over Ukraine is that there are two people representing Russian interests, with no one representing US or Ukraine.

Trumps goal is to stay out of jail and profit from the American people… He has absolutely no intention of doing anything for the betterment of our country…. None. As a matter of fact: the only thing he’ll do is take care of his rich friends…just like the last time! Remember that?!

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts, rockets and presidents”. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

To Mainstream News - walk out en masse ya damn cowards. You have the power to ban him from the news cycles, but you keep broadcasting every despicable thing he says. Let Fox News have the SOB. Then find the courage to finally tell the world the truth about this bloviated, deranged narcissist.

I would rather model a string bikini on stage at my high school reunion, while juggling flaming chainsaws and being hugged by a clingy porcupine with serious boundary issues, along with his emotional support skunk, than watch his inauguration… Can you say the same?! 🤚

Prepare for law-breaking on an unprecedented scale by the convicted felon. He's been given permission under the guise of "presidential immunity" by the corrupt SCOTUS, and he will take full advantage of it. He doesn't give a damn about the price of eggs, only about how much money he can get.

The fact that Americans have a propensity to elect men who care mostly about serving themselves and their cronies rather than the common good will never be tolerable. That they are duped into believing that the common good is anti-American socialism makes this particularly galling.
