Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 21/08/2026This letter from Natalie Harp to Donald Trump just confirms what’s been reported on by multiple journalists and news outlets, including Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan who detail an unusual relationship between Harp and Trump in their new book. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 20/08/2026US DEBT HITS $40 TRILLION, UP BY $5 TRILLION SINCE TRUMP RETURNED TO OFFICE! Borrowing rates also just rose to their highest levels since 2007. And the fact of the matter is, it's primarily Trump's policies that have contributed to this immense increase in the national debt. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Borrowing rates just rose to their highest levels since 2007 due to persistent inflation, government deficits and AI spending. Trump has contributed to rising yields through excessive government borrowing, increased costs associated with his tariff and trade policies, and his war in Iran of course. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Birds of a feather... Trump has a tendency to cozy up with dictators and autocrats while often alienating or insulting our western democratic allies. This is because Trump has a bad case of dictator envy. He desires to normalize their governing model in the US. Kim Jong Un in particular. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Not so fun fact: the United States is about to have its measles free status revoked because our government and HHS is being run by unhinged lunatics who subscribe to deranged and unscientific conspiracy theories instead of facts. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 16/08/2026How utterly humiliating for our country. The US has depleted so much of its munitions stockpiles that China is now convinced that we're not the dominant military power we were once thought to be because we cannot replenish our arsenal during a protracted conflict. 110
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 15/08/2026In response to a story about appalling conditions on the USS Abraham Lincoln, Trump was asked about the concerns of family members of U.S. service members aboard the ship, he answered, "No they're not." When he was asked if the deployment has gone on too long, he answered, "not nearly long enough." 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 15/08/2026You prophets of doom have been warning us about immigrant "invasions" for years; spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories; constructing racist narratives; scapegoating foreigners and minorities; stoking fear and violence with your alarmist rhetoric; radicalizing yourselves in the process. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Another one (woman) bites the dust. Leavitt was a propagandist. Trump's own personal spokesperson, and maddeningly obsequious mouthpiece for his regime. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Why don't we start by investigating Trump's cryptocurrency schemes that have allowed foreign governments to purchase influence with the president, and netted him and his family hundreds of MILLIONS while every day investors have collectively lost BILLIONS??? 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Elon Musk calls Hitler a “left wing socialist.” Now, I don't care if he thinks he's “trolling the libs," which is problematic behavior on its own. Because this isn't the first time, nor will it be the last that Elon Musk promotes some white nationalist, revisionist horseshit on his own platform. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Russia and China have been greater beneficiaries of Trump's war than the US and its allies. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Vital for Trump's ego... That's about it. Or if he plans to use his "ballroom" as a bunker come 2028. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 07/08/2026The US is facing a critical missile shortage as the war in Iran stretches into its SIXTH month. A war Trump said would only last 4-6 weeks, a war that we are LOSING and an ongoing war that is depleting our munitions stockpile. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 07/08/2026No surprise here, when have checks and balances ever mattered to Trump? This case was OPEN AND SHUT. Even in the court of public opinion, a vast majority of Americans support birthright citizenship. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 06/08/2026BREAKING NEWS: An illustration of the REAL reflecting pool vandal has just been released! 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Seven states last week were targets of hacks against water operations believed to be perpetrated by Iran. But Donald Trump gave our enemy the benefit of the doubt and blamed Democrats instead. This is not only deranged behavior, but it also puts our national security at great risk. 110
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I know this might be difficult for MAGA to comprehend, but agencies like the DOJ and FBI are supposed to act independently of the president, not serve his every whim. The DOJ now operates as Trump's personal legal arm, the FBI as his crime unit, and the FCC as his tool for silencing his critics. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I love this for them... You'd think Pirro would come out of this realizing what it's like to work for a corrupt, mentally and emotionally stunted narcissist, but instead she's digging deeper and trying to prove her loyalty to Trump by blaming Burgum and revealing him to be some kind of saboteur. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Talarico pulls ahead of Paxton by 5-points in new Texas Senate race poll: Bad news for Ken Paxton, good news for everyone else. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 28/07/2026This is the same party that cried incessantly during COVID about their medical privacy rights being violated because they were occasionally asked about their vaccination status... 110
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 20/07/2026The FBI is said to be no longer investigating confrontations involving ICE agents. This is reaching peak levels of authoritarianism. The goal being to give Trump's trigger happy ICE thugs the unchecked authority to terrorize the public with impunity. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Todd Blanche wouldn't meet with Epstein victims and survivors. But he would meet with Ghislaine Maxwell. This should tell you EVERYTHING. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Jay Clayton couldn't answer who won the 2020 election in his confirmation hearing. Todd Blanche tried to deflect from his conflicts of interest, his corruption and his Epstein cover up operation. These are not "merit" based nominations, but Trump loyalists who are utterly unsuited for the job. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 08/07/2026FEMA threatens to withhold terrorism prevention funds unless states adopt Trump’s anti-voting agenda: Obviously going to face court challenges, which Trump will use to decry "activist judges" and unfair treatment, only adding to the ridiculous narrative that it's *his* power that's being repressed. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 07/07/2026Hmm, I wonder what gave it away? Maybe Trump's literal "whites only" refugee program!??? 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Patriotism is not devotion to a single ideology or individual. Patriotism is not gatekept. Patriotism is not a sense of superiority. Patriotism is not white nationalism. Patriotism is not partisan. Patriotism is not performative. Patriotism is not a political weapon. Patriotism is not MAGA. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Trump's own latest financial disclosures show more than 3,600 market transactions during the first quarter of 2026 alone! The scale of the activity is ENORMOUS, and the timing of these trades is criminally suspicious. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 26/06/2026"Heritage Foundation Brags That Trump Has Implemented More Than Half of Project 2025." One of the most successful and central aims of the Trump administration, as outlined in Project 2025 of course, is the establishment of a unitary executive beholden to no one. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 26/06/2026MAGA's maximalist response to the recent elections in New York only further illustrates their ignorance when it comes to understanding the basic differences between socialism, communism and democratic socialism. More than that, they don't seem to understand these things on any fundamental level. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 19/06/2026This is the direct OPPOSITE of a "meritocracy." Navy leadership believed that Admiral Stephen D. Barnett was the top choice for a command position that would oversee our US Naval bases "at home and abroad." 120
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 11/06/2026www.nytimes.com/2026/06/10/p... The latest episode of "The Daily" talks in depth about the rippling repercussions of the war in Iran. If you want to know how Trump's war is wreaking a devastating toll on the world, no less the American people and economy... Give it a listen.nytimes.comThe Iran War’s Devastating Butterfly Effect 010
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Hey MAGA, Donald Trump just "loves" that you're paying higher prices for gas, groceries, electricity, housing, transportation, clothing and the general cost of living. He "loves" that wages aren't keeping up. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 10/06/2026No MAGA, you only have Elon Musk and Donald Trump to blame for the return of the screwworm. The screwworm was eradicated from the US back in 1966, but due directly to DOGE cuts and staffing reductions, the deadly bugs have returned for the first time in 60 years 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 09/06/2026Every election that Trump or Trump backed candidates lose is always conveniently "rigged." They refuse to concede and consistently accuse their opponents of "cheating." If you can't identify Trump's dishonest and pathological pattern of behavior here, then you really are in denial. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 09/06/2026If any other president had done this to the White House, MAGA would be in shambles. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 05/06/2026It's telling that this is being reported on like it's not in Trump's personal best interests. I mean, most have already gathered that Trump would rather see Putin's demands met than the people of Ukraine obtain some measure of freedom and protection from Russian aggression. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 05/06/2026So when even this latest mediocre jobs report gets revised down later because Trump has fired labor statisticians and replaced them with kowtowing loyalists willing to put out misleading data, do you think the White House is going to acknowledge it then? 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 31/05/2026> “Someone should explain to the Pope that the Mayor of Chicago is useless, and that Iran cannot have a Nuclear Weapon!” Trump wrote on Truth Social. He's such an insufferable, whiney ass child... He can't go one day without airing out his grievances in public. 111
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 30/05/2026In recent weeks, the Trump administration has been escalating its attacks on boats that are allegedly carrying so-called "narco terrorists." All in all, since these extrajudicial bombings began, around 60 boats have been attacked and 200 people have been killed as a result of these strikes. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Nearly every aspect of the deal remains vague. Still, Trump and his allies continue to push out messages that conflict with reality, which only undermines talks and could jeopardize the very fate of negotiations. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 22/05/2026So family separation is an INTENTIONAL policy goal of the Trump administration. Not to mention, in language that conservatives might understand, the sheer financial and economic cost of this operation and the tremendous strain it puts on the state and labor department, and even American businesses. 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 22/05/2026Nevermind the 2024 election for a moment, the autopsy itself is its own humiliating failure... Paul Rivera, the "consultant" who wrote it, apparently didn't even interview Biden, Harris or Tim Walz, and he also didn't start contacting campaign staff till late 2025... 100
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 22/05/2026Take note DNC. Mamdani's doing almost everything right politically. I don't care if you're hesitant to support his policies, you've always tried to prioritize winning over everything else in the past, often to your detriment. At least use his approach to politicking as a blueprint. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 19/05/2026The IRS is now dropping audits of the Trump family as part of Trump's taxpayer financed slush fund deal with his government. Another flagrant example of the unprecedented corruption that has come to define the Trump administration and FAMILY. This will be their legacy, and hopefully their doom. 003
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Why even call it the "EPA" anymore? The Trump administration is not protecting anything or anyone but billionaires and corporate interests. 000
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 12/05/2026James Comey says seashells case illustrates Trump’s ‘bottomless desire’ for revenge: These charges are meritless and amount to another example of Trump weaponizing the power of the DOJ to persecute his political opponents, his critics in the media, and anyone who has ever wronged him. 110
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 11/05/2026"America's ability to deter China in a war over Taiwan is weakened." Among all of the problems that this war has caused, one that really raises alarms is just how much China could benefit from a depletion of US interceptor/cruise missiles. 110
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 08/05/2026YUP. So why don't conservatives ever talk about things like wage theft? That's a rhetorical question by the way, because for anyone remotely sensible enough to understand the implications, the answer is obvious. 110
Eric in America @eric-in-america.bsky.social · 08/05/2026"A classified US intelligence assessment concluded that Iran could stand with a US naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz for at least three to four months before facing significantly deeper economic distress, The Washington Post reported Thursday, citing four people familiar with the issue." 000
