US Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas, a Republican, had a pregnant mother arrested in front of her children because she owed him $50. An OB/GYN, he routinely had his patients arrested based on small medical debts. He's up for re-election this year. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/08/u...

Diesel fuel reached an average price of $6.52 a gallon on Tuesday. That's the highest price for diesel fuel in US history. Costly diesel causes inflation on products all through the economy. Mortgage rates are up. Inflation is up. So much for Trumponomics.

Heating oil prices in the United States are up by about by 30% on average over last year. They are up by about 70% in Massachusetts where I live. It's all thanks to Trump's failed war in Iran.

I haven't said enough about the ongoing war crimes and crimes against humanity that are occurring in Gaza and in the West Bank. The atrocities against civilians (who are innocent men, women & children) are unimaginable. Netanyahu, his allies, Trump & the US officials supporting it are criminals.

Trump administration is involved in cover up of child pornography possessed by US diplomat at his home in London. They are providing aid, shelter, transportation and protection to the offender. This underscores Trump's history of rape and pedophilia. #epsteinfiles www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

If the US military is winning its war against Iran, why did the Houthis just seize the port city of Mokha on the southern end of the Red Sea near the Bab al-Mandab strait? The price of oil shot up today to over $107 a barrel because Iran & the Houthis are kicking the butt of the US and its allies.

Trump's war on Iran has pushed Brent Crude Oil prices back up to over $101 dollars per barrel. Gasoline & diesel prices are shooting up. Fertilizer shortages & high diesel costs are increasing food prices and causing hunger globally.

Trump went to war against Iran to stop it from demanding extortion payments from shippers transiting the strait of Hormuz. Today, Trump announced that he will demand extortion payments from shippers transiting the strait. Trump is a disaster for the US and a menace to humanity

Trump is escalating the war against Iran. He promised it would be over in a few days or weeks. Now, Iran is closing the strait of Hormuz anytime it wants to. The war is causing inflation & high gasoline prices. It's costing US farmers a fortune for fuel and fertilizers. share.google/XiAcnvRCGdvN...

32 times Trump suggested the war in Iran was almost over

An NBC News review found dozens of instances where Trump said the war was won or almost won — comments that were often followed by more threats of military action.

The rapacious corruption of Trump and his family is unprecedented in US history. Trump made more than $2.2 billion in profits since he was re-elected. Jared Kushner made more than $1 billion in profits. Much of the profits came from Middle Eastern governments currying favor with the Trumps.

Trump & his regime have hijacked the 250th anniversary of the declaration of independence. For them, it's a celebration of white nationalism, authoritarianism, oligarchy, corruption, militarism & sexism. It should be a day to celebrate & advance equality, liberty, peace, justice & democracy.

The Supreme Court's decision yesterday in Mullin v. Doe allows Trump to end Temporary Protected Status for 350,000 Haitian & 6,000 Syrian immigrants. (Many Haitians provide critical health care). It also allows him to terminate protections for over 1 million other peaceful & law-abiding immigrants.

Trump said the war would be finished in weeks. Where going into 4 months. He said he won the war. If he won, why is he still spending more than $1 billion of our tax dollars per day on it? Why is he still bombing & killing children? He said he destroyed Iran's nuclear program. They still have it.

Whenever I have an at length conversation with a Trump supporter, it usually entails this - “Look, I know what you thought you were voting for, but this is what you got - a tanking economy, rapidly spiking inflation, War, War, War, and public corruption like we’ve never seen.”

Trump is promising to escalate the war against Iran with ground troops. He is a lap dog for Netanyahu. Trump is trapped in an unnecessary war he chose that we are losing. If he had gone golfing & done nothing we would be immeasurably better off. He is the greatest failed President in history.

Trump's $1.7 billion slush fund & his deal with the IRS to allow him, his companies and his children to cheat on their taxes, are not popular. This is the most obvious corruption engaged in by any President in the history of the U.S. *Don't forget about the murders of Renee Good & Alex Pretti.

Trump's "settlement" with the Justice Department purports to give Trump, his businesses & family immunity from IRS audits. Republicans in Congress could pass legislation making clear that there is no such immunity. Don't hold your breath waiting for that.

Congressional Republicans allegedly said they were very concerned about Trump's $1.8 billion "settlement" with the "Justice Department." Since they control Congress, they can easily pass legislation regulating the payments from the judgment fund to insurrectionists, rioters & friends of Trump.
