I'm not the best photographer, but these were taken at a empty chair Town Hall in North Carolina's district 10, Pat Harrigan's district. Harrigan is a 100% Trump loyalist and is very dismissive of any constituent who disagrees with him. #resist

I feel much more emotionally aligned with Kinzinger and Kristol in this moment as opposed to Schumer and Jeffries because Kinzinger and Kristol are actually trying to change public opinion as opposed to trying to perfectly calibrate messages like a safecracker around existing opinion.

This kind of talk makes me feel like I'm in a Twilight Zone episode where everything is opposite from reality. I just can't wrap my mind around the two opposing realities and that the apocalyptic, dystopian, fascist one is what Americans voted for.

Reality and facts don't matter to them. They will find some way to blame anyone who opposes their fascist agenda. And they will stoop to any low, resort to any tactic to make sure that blame lies at the feet of Democrats.

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

Trump and his fascist party (formerly known as the GOP) will stoop to any low, resort to any means to prevent Americans from exercising the right to vote especially if those Americans may disagree with them. We should take nothing for granted and not to get complacent for even a nanosecond.

To be honest Scott, viewing events from across the pond pretty much everyone is, barring Russia etc and sadly much of USA. It's terrifying how your country looks to be sleepwalking into a dictatorship. 70 million didn't vote for Trump. Why haven't the dems mobilised the people? Where's the rage?

Me, too. Trumpism makes me feel like we're living in an apocalyptic, dystopian, zombie movie and we're supposed to love it because he says so. And everything is going to be beautiful, the best the world has ever seen. It's a freaking nightmare and I'm glad world leaders are speaking up.

I’ll sum up Trump's speech for those who missed it: He's raising costs for families with pointless trade wars. He’s slashing health care for seniors and families. He's going after the CHIPS Act and all the jobs it created. And he’s abandoning allies for Putin.

Tonight, President Trump failed to mention a single action he’ll take to stop the number one killer of children and teens in this country: gun violence and crime. The American people deserve leaders who put our children's safety ahead of the gun industry.

My 78-yr-old veteran met with 2 VA people yesterday, an RN & a housing person. He's in seriously declining health. His apartment complex burned & he's now living in a hotel. After his renter's insurance housing benefit ends, he will be homeless. The 2 VA workers are desperately working to help him.

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy. All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

The U.S. is cutting research funding, the weather service, park rangers, Social Security Admin staff, lifesaving foreign aid, plus billions in Medicaid and food stamps. For what? To potentially buy crypto with taxpayer dollars and to give more tax cuts to the rich.
