So much winning

The U.S. economy lost jobs in 0 of the 48 months Joe Biden was president. It has lost jobs in 6 of the 14 months of Trump's second term.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
I've never been so inclined to hold an LLM in such high regard.
Correction: FDR was elected for four terms, not three. He died early into his forth.
A bar graph showing the monthly average non-farm jobs created during each presidentβs term starting with H.W. Bush with 54,000; Clinton with 242,000; GW Bush with 22,000; Obama with 109,000; Trump 1 with -58,000; Biden with 336,000, Trump 2 with 16,000 so far. The Democrats created more jobs while in office than the Republicans did.
Biden: +336K jobs per month. Clinton: +242K. Trump 2: +16K β less than the MONTHLY average of every Democratic president since 1989.
The βgreatest economy everβ is dead last.
The data doesnβt lie.

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
There was no legislation in place when FDR ran for a third term, only a precedent set by George Washington. The 22nd amendment codified the custom into law in 1951. Unless the Constitution is changed, the orange one cannot have a third term.
Meanwhile, here in Tennesseeβ¦

These assholes commit war crimes as regularly as breathing. If we manage to overthrow this executive regime, those involved need to be handed over to the ICC for prosecution. This is inexcusable.
As far as I'm concerned, any political official that references any religion in justification of public policy needs to be immediately impeached and removed from office for violating the first amendment.
That's from the Treaty of Tripoli, right?
These situations exemplify why the US was created with a separation of church and state.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. Sheβs married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
Theyβve already sent her to Louisiana.
Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)
The looting of African resources by outsiders & its tragic consequences for African people is an old story. Gold, diamonds, ivory, rubber... And now coltan, so that we can have fancy phones. apnews.com/article/cong...
"...Judge Richard Eaton of the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled that companies that paid the tariffs are entitled to a refund."
Companies didn't pay the tariffs, we did and we still are.

"[Trump's] calling it a war... [Republicans are] afraid that it makes them look even tinier than they already are.β
Rep. @ericswalwell.bsky.social says Republicans are afraid of looking βeven tinier than they already areβ as they try to claim the US is not at war when Trump is saying it out loud.
Clearly we can expect great things from this one.
Was AI used for the targeting that likely resulted in the bombing of the girls school?
We must have answers to that question and there is ZERO reason for delay because the Pentagon damn well already knows the answer.
4 corporate Democrats funded by AIPAC voted with MAGA to let Trump continue to wage illegal war on Iran.π

Call & remind them we reject their complicity in fascism
Jeffries should resign.
Thank you for directly pointing out some of his major failures and why I no longer support him as a politician.
In a different world you could imagine the conspiracy theory "attacked Venezuela in order to gain control of its oil supply as a hedge against an attack they knew they were planning on Iran," but no one can believe that these clowns thought that far ahead.
$641,000. Thatβs how much AIPAC money Sen. Tim Sheehy receives from Israel. Thatβs the asshole that broke the Marine veteranβs hand for saying that no one wants to fight for Israel.

New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...

He's been a decent governor for California, but his priorities rest solely with his donor class and whoever will keep him relevant and in power.
Fabulous phrasing.

This in context with his MMA background is even more hilarious. Total POS.
This one sounds entertaining:
Big Lie perpetrator, wealthy upbringing, likes MMA, doesn't like transgender persons in sports, or apparently keeping women safe from harm.
Trump says he's replacing Homeland Security Secretary Noem with GOP Sen. Markwayne Mullin
