Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

Call your Republican Congressperson and demand that they extend existing ACA subsidies! (202) 224-3121

25% of ACA enrollees have signaled they may drop coverage in 2026 if subsidies expire. Millions of families could face skyrocketing premiums, surprise medical bills, & gaps in essential care. Democrats are fighting to extend protections, while Trump signals no change.

I took a little comfort in this. Though the National Security Strategy is alarming, does Trump really have the discipline or the cognitive function to implement this? It would be disastrous to cut economic and military ties w/Europe…and

Americans are paying higher costs in the Trump/GOP affordability crisis brought on by Trump/GOP’s tariffs (taxes on American consumers & businesses)! Bills continue piling up with increased costs for electricity, groceries, health care etc.! You pay more $ all so Trump/GOP & billionaires get more $!

Antizionism is a hate movement built on distorting history, outright propaganda and terrorism apologia.

This is not progressive, nor is it the foundation for a just and pluralistic society.

In 2016, Whiskey Pete Hegseth bluntly warned that Trump would push unlawful military orders and abandon anyone who refused to break the law for him. These people weren’t fooled; they saw the risk to the country and the military.

They chose complicity over integrity, and they’re still doing it.

Many Americans are forced to take less effective medication because even with their healthcare premiums doubled and tripled their insurance companies won’t cover the more effective treatments. #TrumpAffordabilityCrisis

Post by Pete Hegseth saying "For your Christmas Wish Lust" and showing a fake book cover of children's character Franklin the Turtle launching rocket propelled grenades at boats in a tropical setting from a helicopter. Franklin is dressed in military gear. The fake book is titled "Franklin Targets NarcoTerrorists"

This is a disturbing post on X by a disturbed individual. Pete Hegseth is a murderer.

But there's no money to feed Americans who need help to provide nutritious meals to their families.

From USDA web page - image of logo and statement blaming Democrats, trans people, and undocumented immigrants for the temporary loss of SNAP benefits when there is a $5B contingency fund available to continue them and Trump won't use it

Table of FOOD STAMP MYTHS Myth. People who get SNAP don't work Fact The overwhelming majority of SNAP recipients who can work do work MYTH SNAP is a drain on taxpayers FACT Every $1 in SNAP benefits generates $1.73 in economic activity MYTH SNAP is rife with fraud and abuse FACT SNAP has a fraud rate of 3%(the lowest of any public benefit program) MYTH SNAP benefits go to undocumented immigrants FACT Undocumented immigrants have never been eligible for SNAP

And USDA is blaming undocumented immigrants, trans people, and Democrats when it is all on Trump.

Trump has an authorized $5B SNAP contingency fund he won't use because he wants to make people suffer to force Democrats to accept his terms.

That includes children, veterans, active duty troops.

THIS HALLOWEEN, THE SCARTEST COSTUME ISIN ECONOMY UNDER DONALD TRump

The rise in costs you’re feeling, it’s by design. Skyrocketing prices, government shutdowns, and fear mongering aren’t accidents, they’re part of a deliberate strategy to break our trust in government and keep power concentrated in the hands of a few.

Stop Trump, vote YES on Prop 50!
