Under Trump and his Republican enablers, the richest Americans and biggest corporations have made out like bandits. Average working Americans are paying dearly for what the bandits have stolen. The grift and the graft must end.

republicans wrote us off long ago. you dont see republicans trying to win over clinton/obama/biden/kerry voters. and its more of an uphill climb for them. if dems spent 1/3 as much time cultivating their base as they do kissing the feet of republicans hoping theyll change, the party wouldnt lose

🚨Holy shit, brilliant animators just made a devastating ad against Republican corruption: “A massive flood of money… impacts every part of our democracy.” Trump’s corruption is putting our democracy, our rights, and our future up for sale. VOTE. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

why do republicans feel so free to be corrupt and bigoted? they face almost no consequences. the "opposition" party doesnt take them to task for it and they are fixated on flipping gop supporters instead of cultivating their base. the mainstream media is in full-on capture, worred more about money.

The rot inside our government is going to last decades. Any Dem who suggests we just “turn the page” like Obama and Biden did needs to be run out of town. We need vengeance and cleansing.

A digital illustration in a graphite style of my fluffy gray cat, Bear, with a sort of blank expression on his face. Behind the graphite drawing is a varied gradient of colors in his fur, grays, blues, purples, yellows, pink in the ears and yellow eyes. Across his impressive fluffy mane are hand lettered words in a block serif style reading 'Maybe It will happen today'
