💯. My friend @judgeluttig.bsky.social, as always, says it straight and straight-out.

I talk to people all over Nebraska who are working harder than their parents ever did and have less to show for it. That's not laziness. That's a system that was deliberately tilted against them.

When the shitty Fox says something unfavorable about the government's politics, you can count on it being true!

Colorado farmers scale back crops and fear for survival as drought, tariffs and war take their toll “If we don’t get moisture, I’m not going to plant,” said chile grower Praxie Vigil, who runs Vigil Farms along the Bessemer Ditch near Pueblo.

This year’s record-warm spring is pummeling Colorado farmers amid multiple external threats, disrupting the state’s $9 billion agricultural sector and jeopardizing signature crops like Pueblo green chiles, Olathe sweet corn and Palisade peaches. "I am hoping to get through this year," a farmer says

-6 in 10 say finances have worsened.

The grift never ends. Most corrupt regime in history

I put out a montage of him a while ago sniffling in nearly every podcast interview he did for two years, but maybe that wasn’t the only thing he had going on.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.

DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand.

My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases.

DOJ is now 0-5.

My firm is 5-0.

Lesson: When we fight we win.

Can confirm

Neguse: "Despite all of that, Speaker Johnson made the decision to gavel the House & send everyone home. Now we're back 2 weeks later & what has the majority decided is the most pressing issue to debate? Apparently it's a resolution commemorating a bill that the GOP passed last year. It's absurd."

You would think they would have learned the first time he was in office! Why do these people continue to vote for their own decimation? 🤔

Not feeling good about giving my hard earned money to the oligarchs, to fund illegal & unnecessary "wars,"or fund any of this admin's crooked schemes.
Not at all 'good.'

Apparently the Vicar of Christ is "Weak on Nuclear Weapons." Who knew?

I assume Orban conceded because the opposition's victory is too staggeringly large to deny.
