I have a feeling that Elon Musk is back in favor with President Trump because he will assist him in cheating during the upcoming midterms. I’m not sure how, but it gives me a strange feeling.

"If he [Trump] can convince them of this...that he ran three times and the only one [election] that was stolen from him was the one that he was in charge of....then we are in a different timeline..." Nicole Wallace, guest speaker on the Bulwark.

I just want to thank all the bird people and the mushroom people. Things have been so depressing lately. Your photos bring me peace amidst the chaos and rage.

Let the picture of the little five year old boy standing facing the car and the old man being dragged out of his house with no shirt on, let those images burn into your brain. We don’t have to be this country. We don’t have to live this way. Donald Trump was a choice, Republican voters made for us.

My question here: “Trump is a self-confessed predator, an adjudicated rapist, more than two dozen women have accused him of sexual assault. Does it make any logical sense he had nothing to do with or know about Epstein’s sex trafficking or pedophilia?” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-epstei...

The Hate America Rally already happened, Mike Johnson. It was held on January 6, 2021, and was orchestrated by your boss. On October 18, patriots across America will honor our commitment to keep America from becoming the dystopic jackboot dictatorship you fascist bootlickers dream of and drool for.

Hey JD Vance.👋 You need to understand something. Physicians are never going to refuse emergency care to someone in an Emergency Department. No matter what you say behind that big boy podium. We’re not like you. We wake up every day to help people.

REPORTER: Yesterday you said you were not sure who ordered the munitions ordered to Ukraine. Have you figured it out? TRUMP: I haven't though about it REPORTER: What does it say that such a decision could be made without you knowing? TRUMP: I would know. If a decision was made I will know.

Sen Bernie Sanders (I-VA) just now on CNN: "We have a President moving this country rapidly into authoritarianism. He's suing media who criticize him. He's going after law firms that have clients who were against him. He's suing universities who teach courses he doesn't like"

Trump's executive order to gut funding for public media (including NPR and PBS) will cut off news sources for millions. That’s exactly what he wants: to exert even more control over the information that the public receives – or doesn’t even receive at all. It’s a hallmark of dictatorship.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Three morals to the TikTok story so far. First, everything involving Trump 2.0 will be part of a giant con. Second, everything involving Trump 2.0 will be a grift: "What do you need; what's in it for me?" Third - everything BESIDES the con and the grift, including national security - is irrelevant.

It has been so wonderful to watch the droves of people come over from Twitter in the last 45 days. It gives me hope that collectively we lessen Elon Muskrats influence.
