Mother of one, grandmother of three. I’ve been blue all my life. Sorry I didn’t do more back in the 60s and early 70s to advance women’s rights that we are now losing!

I think a class action lawsuit against the Donald Trump administration for withholding funds from blue cities and states could get to the Supreme Court. Something has got to stop DJT from robbing the American public. DJT vs the US needs to be overturned. We need the best legal minds to help.

How utterly distressing and embarrassing that we now have “department of war “. The biggest problem is that this war is being declared on American cities and American citizens. I can’t imagine who in the entire globe of earth would want to visit what was once a beautiful wonderful country .

Watching the grilling by GOP of former CDC director by RFK and replaced by his yes man with no scientific backgrounds is incredulous. The announcement of CDC policy on X and truth social is a disgrace. This is how the CDC director learned of RFK‘s new policy on vaccine schedules for children. WTF

All Dems need to run on the premise that every official perpetrating illegal acts of war against anyone including American citizens will be investigated and prosecuted to the full extent of the law including all military & ICE personnel committing these acts. Dems need to be loud and clear.

What fraud waste and abuse is Trump going to get rid of to offset fraud waste and abuse of turning the DOD into the DOW- dept of war. It’s going to cost millions just to change the name. Blowing up and murdering people on a Venezuela vessel is just the beginning for our department of war!

Sick of Republicans glorifying the only true accomplishment by Trump pushing for an effective Covid vaccine. They say he should receive the Nobel peace prize. On the other hand, they say nothing about the countless policies that are destroying people’s lives in this country. Hypocrisy at its best

RFK is blaming Biden for chronic illness in our country. Seems to me RFK has had chronic brain dysfunction for many years prior to Biden‘s administration. He is delusional about his supposed support from the general public. RFK needs to get his chronic worm infected brain treated asap!

I don’t know if it’s just me, but it seems in the past week that Trump has escalated his march towards dictatorship exponentially. I have been feeling extremely anxious about it all. It’s a never-ending stream of hate, bigotry, threats, firings and vitriol. Anyone else feeling that way?

RFK Junior is considering complete ban on Covid vaccines. He is trying to totally control our health system to the detriment of millions. Operation warp speed is the only true accomplishment by Trump. I’ve had five Covid vaccines and never contracted it. I believe it’s my right have this vaccine!!!

I can’t watch Trump announce his despicable plans for Washington DC. This is just the beginning of the militarization of our blue cities. but if you have a mayor like Eric Adams of New York City in your pocket, you don’t need to send in the troops-he will exert control as directed by the orange god.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com How could Maxwell exonerate Trump from any involvement in Epstein’s disgusting crimes against underage girls. How would she know? She maintains innocence and says she had nothing to do with Epstein‘s assaults. If true she could not possibly know whether Trump did or not.

We can now wholly depend on our elected Republicans to defend and protect Donald Trump’s agenda to destroy our country. I have lost all hope that maybe be a handful would be able to find the courage to say no to the daily dismantling of the American way of life. Six months in & 3 1/2 years to go!

Neil Bove confirmed, even with solid proof of numerous wrongdoings in the Trump administration. A vote coming up to repeal all regulations to control greenhouse gases. How did we ever end up with 250+ house reps & 50+ senators who won’t live up to their oath to defend and protect our constitution.

Hegseth has proved to be a super misogynistic leader of our military. He fired numerous multi decorated, award winning and high ranking women from their military positions. How proud his wife, daughter, or stepdaughter’s must be! I doubt he ever asked their opinion though. utterly disgusting!!

Donald Trump was asked several times today if he’s considering a pardon for Maxwell. His answer both times was “I haven’t thought about it.” Meaning he has thought about it and is considering it. Sick of hearing “I don’t know about that” when avoiding an answer. Just a know nothing president!!

I feel my blood pressure rising whenever Trump talks to the press. Most of the time I have to turn the channel when he’s giving press conferences with all his lies. He will be merrily on his way shortly to Scotland on the American people’s dime. He is attending the opening of his new golf course.

Trump tried using some big words yesterday when proclaiming numerous lies about Obama. Obama is sadacious he said-I think he meant sagacious? Meaning wise, insightful, showing good judgment. Does Trump know the meaning of salacious? That’s how many would describe him. Look it up Donald.!!!

Trump admin only knows how to take away from the Amer people & the world‘s poor. Today the Senate will vote on taking over $9 billion away from foreign aid and public broadcasting. These are funds already approved by Congress. The GOP has abdicated all its power. Midterms can’t come soon enough!

I just sent a request to our governor to work on finding a way to stop Ice from kidnapping people. How can they get away with kidnapping. someone without identifying themselves, their faces hidden, no warrants, and no information on where these people are being taken. Contact your governors!

It made my stomach turn to see all these Republican house members cheering for the BBB being passed. It must’ve been the price of capitulation for a bill that many of them hated. Now they will say anything and everything to promote this monstrosity. Price of being one of Trump‘s bitches.!!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 04/07/2025
So disgusting politicians like Mike Lawler on tv totally lying about the BBB. Saying that CBO is wrong and people won’t lose their health insurance. Also, Donald Trump is saying this is the biggest tax cut ever. Please note, he never says who the tax cut is for-it’s for the already wealthy!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 03/07/2025
M Johnson just proclaimed we are going into a new golden Age. Original golden age was in the 1950s when workers benefited, the economy was good and people were united. This bill really will be more like the Gilded Age-1870s to late 1890s, a period of excesses of the wealthy and political corruption

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 01/07/2025
Lisa Murkowski just voted yes on this big bad bill and at the same time saying this is a bad bill and will hurt many people in this country. she got what she needed for Alaska but doesn’t care about the rest of the country. Do we have anybody in this Republican Party that has a true moral compass?

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 01/07/2025
What are despicable spectacle Donald Trump just made of himself on live TV joking about inmates having to run away from alligators and how they should do it. What the world must think of this joke of a human being. There is nothing human in Donald Trump’s DNA.

Where are all the billionaires who have not asked for this tax break that will put millions out of healthcare and take food out of millions of children’s mouths. Why aren’t they standing up if they don’t need an extra $12,000 a year in their pockets. It’s all about power!!!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 22/06/2025
Is the US under scrutiny by any global human rights groups??The fact that the BBB will include legislation to be able to deport US citizens should be a violation. Deporting to countries other than those of origin, snatching people off the streets with no due process, etc, etc, etc!! Shameful!

Everything and everyone in the Trump government is up for sale or trade. Why not Pam Bondi’s grand jury? Sounds like a “Trumped” up charge for Diego Garcia. 6 co-conspirators are not charged. Pam Bondi certainly sold out to Donald Trump so again why not her grand jury.

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 06/06/2025
Pam Bondi stated “this is what justice looks like” in regards to the return of Kilmar Garcia. She didn’t say that when they were accused of illegally sending him to El Salvador. She is nothing but a self righteous minion of Donald Trump . Strange he is now being prosecuted for MS 13 activities.

Mike Johnson made the comment this morning that there was a lot of prayer involved and he got on his knees and prayed that Trump‘s big beautiful bill would be passed. OMG.! Actually praying to destroy people’s healthcare and taking food out of the mouths of children.

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 22/05/2025
Pam Bondy is finally doing the job she was hired to do instead of trying to arrest and prosecute those who were doing their jobs. Her comment “the hate needs to stop” is pure hypocrisy. Everyone in the Trump administration has been spewing hate and lies from the beginning of their terms.

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 18/05/2025
sick of speaker Johnson spewing lies about “Biden Crime Family”. He has no proof and never has offered any. Today he excused Trumps totally corrupt and illegal policies & grift by saying he is open about doing it. Johnson is a Christian? What a huge lie!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 14/05/2025
Christie did the same playbook she did during confirmation -talk over the questioner, don’t answer the question, and just plain babbling. Is the problem that she just can’t “handle the truth”. The simple question is “ has this photo been doctored”of Abrego Garcia’s hand with a supposed tattoo MS13

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 23/04/2025
So tired of these cabinet members talking to the American people like they’re ignorant. Hegseth and the Vance comments about chats not being classified is totally ridiculous. Hegseth thinks he has Fox viewers as his entire audience. He should be court-martialed!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 15/04/2025
@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com People keep asking why is Trump talking about deporting citizens & non-citizens from our country. I believe there is a simple reason. He is using cruelty to weaponize our govt in every way, to punish everyone that does not support him & damn those that do. TOTALLY EVIL

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 08/04/2025
I don’t understand how Trump ever came up with Robert Kennedy. There has been fluoride in water since I was a kid and I’m 75 years old now. The claims he is making are just ludicrous. It’s bad enough to deal with Trump’s tariffs & gutting our govt , we have moronic Kennedy running DHHS.
000
Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 27/03/2025
I find it very odd and disturbing that Donald Trump’s answers to so many questions from the press are “I didn’t see that “or I don’t know anything about that. “ What the H…? Really? he hasn’t seen the chat transcript of his top security officials!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Since we will be saving so much money that the government won’t have to spend anymore, can we not pay our taxes this year? Very few IRS employees will still be on the job to even process our taxes. Mmmmm…. Thinking about it!

Shelley O’Connor @soconnor928.bsky.social · 12/03/2025
@maddow.msnbc.com I have really been wondering lately about the Supreme Court ruling giving Trump carte blanche as president. Given the recent 5 to 4 decision Regarding USAID I can’t help but think this was a long-term plan of some of these Supreme Court justices & what they wanted all along.
