We shouldn’t allow Trump to co-opt our 250 year celebration. I hope cities such as Boston and Philadelphia hold huge events that embrace the founding principles of our country and the rights that flow from our origins. He has made our country an embarrassment to the world.

As it turns out the Cleveland Cavaliers are a major disappointment in this series. How are some of these players even on an nba team? The Pistons would have given us a much better series against the Nicks. Game 4 and they still can’t play defense.

John Roberts doesn’t believe any black people should be able to exercise their right to vote. As with many of their rulings: roe resulted in deaths, immunity lead to a corrupt executive, destruction of VRA restores slavery. Not understanding the impact of decisions or not caring is a failure.

The whole world is relishing how easily they can now take advantage of the weakness of the US. Putin is meeting with Iranian ministers. Europe is moving on from dependence on the US. Trump looks weak and our country is no longer looked to for leadership or inspiration. America last.

The contrast between Obamas team who negotiated the jcpoa and what we are witnessing today with the real estate Nimrods is striking. Obama had experts in commerce, nuclear physicists and diplomats who worked hard to force Iran to forego EVER building a nuclear weapon. We’re so dumb.

It’s crazy that Wall Street traders base their actions on the lies trump tells. This undermines the illusion markets are based on facts and trends. The stock market is much more vulnerable than we know.

Why does no one point out that Warner brothers didn’t have to sell? By accepting the Ellison bid WB is selling out. They are selling us all out due only to greed. They could have accepted the Netflix bid for just a few less bucks. Another arrow to our democracy. A reminder the wealthy don’t care.

I don’t know who will end up being the democratic nominee for president in 2028 but I know the bar is really low. Any of the names being mentioned today are vastly superior to what we have today. Let’s use the trauma we’re living through today to harness the power to solve the problems facing us.

Beyond the first amendment issues and Carr’s blatant partisanship it’s crazy that Texans would compare Talarico and Paxton and vote for Paxton. Let’s see, a proven legally and morally corrupt person in Paxton versus a squeaky clean Texan Christian who knows what he believes. Is this a hard choice?

Joe Biden: we will make repairs to your roads and bridges that have been delayed for decades. Trump: let me think of all the ways I can screw over working class Americans. Wasting taxpayer dollars at every turn. Vanity projects, tariffs-taxes-, building and operating concentration camps. Winning?

Why are we allowing our government to open a bunch of concentration camps to hold brown people most of who have no criminal record. Are we ok with our government doing this in our names? This will be very expensive, is illegal and cruel. People understand the need to deport but to imprison?

Can’t we all agree government officials should not be using twitter/x or TS to make official announcements? Many people don’t use twitter. The government belongs to all the people and is accountable to them. Government business should be communicated on official platforms accessible to everyone.

It’s time for the nfl to institute a policy of reviewing calls officials are making during games. There is enough evidence the increased focus on betting on nfl games have provided an incentive for officials to make calls which impact the outcome of games. We’re all seeing it and it can’t be ignored

Make no mistake. The United States is in decline. Our adversaries are taking advantage of our withdrawal from leadership. Europe is sending a big FU to America. We can’t be trusted and they are realizing they don’t need us. America first is America alone and the sad reality is none our leaders know

Trump doesn’t represent the United States he represents himself and his own personal interests. I challenge you to cite a single instance where he is acting in the interests of the American people. Pardoning the former president of Honduras was not in our interest but the grift was good for him.

Kushner playing a major role in foreign policy is weird. Is he a representative for our country and whose interests is he representing? The grift and corruption of these people is fundamental to who they are. Beyond that is emptiness.

Many Americans are unhappy with our government. The failure to fix border security while making it easier for immigrants to obtain work permits. Fixing a broken healthcare system. Health insurance doesn’t work for the people or healthcare providers. Only the insurance companies benefit.

We understand democracy is messy but we don’t get why we can’t fix our fundamental problems. Regardless of party elected leaders have failed us. Unresolved problems act as a cancer on our society. The pain we feel today are symptoms of the dysfunction of our government.

One thing many people may be realizing as they face the daily stupidity of trump is having a democratic president really does allow them to live a better life. Regardless of who you voted for it’s clear. This is not a president that cares about people like you regardless of what he says.

We all know trump is a truly horrible human being but I continue to be surprised how often he demonstrates this truth. The things he has said about mtg proves once again he has no loyalty or care for anyone but himself. If he died tomorrow the world would be a better place.

Tom Emmers is a serial liar. Trying to claim tariffs have lowered prices. The gaslighting republicans are engaged in is backfiring since all of us that live in the real world know what costs are. I hope his voters are paying attention and will dump him at the next opportunity.

I don’t think the Dems that caved on the shutdown realize they just handed the midterms to the Republicans and may have just ensured democrats will be in the minority permanently. People were blaming republicans for the shutdown but now democrats admit it was them all along. A sad state of affairs.

At a time when electricity costs are soaring and demand is rising, due in part to large data centers, we should be embracing wind and solar energy technologies. Natural gas will continue to be a bridge source but coal is dead. We need leaders with vision who aren’t beholden to fossil fuel lobbyists.

I look forward to the day the lawbreakers in this administration are held accountable. Jack Smith should lead the investigations. There will be hundreds of charges and dozens of members of this administration facing legal trouble. We can’t allow a precedent to be set rule of law doesn’t matter.

Mike Johnson has betrayed this country and violated his oath of office. Waiting by the phone for instructions from trump. Refusing to seat an elected representative. Not exercising his authority as a separate branch of government. He has done incalculable damage to our country. All out of cowardice.

Republicans want to claim we hate America? Look at their actions. Tearing our country and government apart. Unlike them we aren’t a bunch of cowards afraid of trump. No. We will stand up for the people of this country, without fear, knowing we have the moral authority to do so.

Hey maga Mike, having a majority in the house doesn’t mean those in the minority don’t have a voice or a say in legislation. You can’t just ignore half the country. You didn’t seek any input from democrats on your budget. Now Dems are expressing what they can’t support. This is normal business.

This president is the most transparent president in history. We’ve heard republicans say this and Bondi repeated it today. But what it means is this president breaks the law in plain view. Doesn’t seem good and I wouldn’t brag about it either.

Federal prosecutors are saying there is no case to make against Comey. No prosecutors were making that argument in the Mara lago documents case. Why? The case was a slam dunk. Trump on tape telling employees to hide and destroy evidence. Top secret documents found there with photos to prove it.

It’s kind of stunning how announcers for college football have become so partisan matching the mood of the country. They don’t even pretend to just be commenting on the play. Watching TCU vs CU announcers are hooting for TCU, criticizing ref calls but near silence anytime CU does something good.

One thing you can count on now that this administration has dismantled the agencies which work to keep us safe. We will experience a terrorist attack before trumps term is up. Our enemies are licking their chops.

Trump says he’ll use the shutdown to cancel democrat programs. Which ones? Veterans benefits, national security, medical research, technology innovation. Which of these only benefit one party? Republicans will be blamed for the destruction of our country but I fear it will be too late.

One thing has become obvious: republicans have no vision for the future. Canceling the funding for energy projects at a time when energy costs are rising and we are failing to generate enough electricity to power our country is insane. Their desire for a return to an imagined past is fantastical.

The MaCain thumbs down occurred because republicans hadn’t devised an alternative to the ACA. Nothing’s changed and the issue is back. Republicans really don’t want you to have health insurance. It’s weird because lots of workers aren’t offered insurance through their employers.

To not have insurance risks financial ruin not to mention the risks to your health. Is it not in our nation’s interest to ensure our citizens have the opportunity to live a healthy, prosperous life? Ask yourself: who’s interest do they represent? Probably not yours.

Uninsured people drive up the costs for everyone. Unless we are willing to turn uninsured people away at the emergency room we are all paying for it. Killing the aca, Medicare and Medicaid hurts everyone. Stand strong Democrats!

You have to ask why these people hate their country. Don’t they want the fire department to come when their home is burning? The reckless destruction of our government will result in responsible people rebuilding. The destroyers will be shamed for all time.
