Not Born Yesterday

Very glad right about now that I'm not part of Cheesecake Factory's PR department!

His term can't be up soon enough. I didn't really think he could embarrass himself anymore, but here is, exceeding my expectations!

(Reuters) - Americans have paid more for their gasoline and diesel at the pump on average during President Donald Trump's second term than they did under his Democratic predecessor, Joe ​Biden, according to the AAA. ⛽️ @reuters.com www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

She had a remarkable amount of support. She may do it! (She got my early vote last week.)

Accurate and scary!

Update on DOJ letters menacing counties: "In Mendocino County, a rugged stretch on the north coast, the registrar said the list she received was completely wrong. “It’s not our voters that were listed,” said Katrina Bartolomie, the Mendocino clerk-recorder. “It’s from another county.”

This supercut is likely to make Trump VERY upset. The difference between Trump and Obama is on full display, and the contrast is absolutely devastating. Watch until the end...

NYPD arresting an ICE goon for trying to steal someone off the streets of NYC. RESPECT!!!

Let's keep reminding today's younger women of what's at stake. It is way too easy to take things for granted.

Well, well, well…. An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is what voter fraud looks like.

Absolutely he did. And this isn’t the first time on camera.

Possibly the first time I've ever heard him be honest.

The last of the fledglings just did not want to leave. Dad tried a food bride. That didn't work. But eventually the little guy did leave the nest. #BirdOfTheDay #Juveniles #Bluebird #Nature #Photography

Iran defeated us at war handily, which was entirely predictable. New footage of U.S. military installations in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, reveal destroyed buildings, obliterated aircraft, bombed-out airstrips and control towers.

Public education is foundational to democracy. As a professor and mom of two public school students, I fight for fully funded schools, early childhood education, affordable child care, educator support, and classrooms where students thrive. I’ll continue that fight in Congress!

Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway. To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back. Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.

Just voted, limped my way in (still healing from a broken ankle) and proudly voted for @drannieandrews.com and every other Democrat on the ticket. I never vote party line. But this time, YES! #vote #SC #indivisible

REMEMBER THIS Nov. 3: All of US on Social Security, SSDI/SSI: We're getting a paltry 3.6% increase for 2027. That amount will NOT pay for the increases to groceries, gas, Medicare Supplement & Part D INCREASES! VOTE 💙🗳️

Trump says “every country using windmills have gone bankrupt”. The three biggest users of windmills are China, The United States of America and Germany. Anyone here about those three countries going bankrupt? Why does he lie on things that are so easily verifiable?

The Bluebird couple. He was obsessed with his “rival” in the reflection in the window. She eventually got disgusted and left. #BirdOfTheDay #Thrush #Nature #Photography

Russia is cooperating with Iran. So why is Trump cooperating with Russia? Like the diesel deal, this decision is a gift to the very forces attacking our service members.

A trillion dollars in interest expense — in one year. And a 100 basis-point rise across the yield curve would drive up 2027 interest costs by another $310 billion. “A snowballing of debt.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

And what does Darline Graham have to say about this?!

Trump says he brought in “$21 trillion” of investment vs. “less than $1 trillion” under Biden. Actual business investment: $14.5 trillion under Biden, $6.7 trillion so far under Trump. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart

Wholesale prices jumped 6.3% annually in September, biggest gain since 2022. Good lord! I hope the shakes enough people up to realize that it's time to get rid of this madman.

If you are a country the worst thing to hear is, “I am Donald Trump and I am here to negotiate for you."

Why doesn’t anyone ever note that Trump has been president for six of the last ten years ?

It’s funny because Biden’s problem was coming off 4yrs of trump

Not Biden

"The Russians have provided Iran with intelligence, ammunition, and explosives...Trump’s response is to beg Putin to accept money for a few thousand barrels of diesel. This is the most stunning display of submission and weakness from an American president ever." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.
