Don’t overthink this.
He’s asking for bribes.

Stop the SAVE Act The SAVE Act would keep millions of people from being able to vote – and would shut countless eligible voters out of our democracy. Urge Congress to vote no now.

The House is set to take up the SAVE Act this week, which would make voting significantly more difficult for millions of people.

Tell your representative to vote NO now.

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved.

* very unconstitutional

He’s being extra cute to take your mind off of the Dumpster Fire today

Thank you, @booker.senate.gov for standing up for the soul of America and for the millions of Americans who feel lost, distraught, disgusted, fearful, and uncertain under the current administration. We need many more democratic leaders like you!

where ignorance reigns free because the government has taken away access to education, and where regular people suffer while the wealthy remain prosperous…Turns out, I don’t have to imagine quite so hard these days.

I used to read dystopian novels and imagine what it would be like to live in societies that strip people of their rights for a “greater good,” where the government has unchecked power to harm its people,

Okay, I am so excited about Flashes because I have been missing instagram but I refuse to go back there!!
So here is the King of the apartment in his coziest form to celebrate 😻

They are determined to keep America sick, poor, and ignorant so that the 1% may remain flush with more cash than they could ever need in multiple lifetimes. Their actions CANNOT make America healthy.

This, among a wide swath of other events recently, is deeply unsettling. The decisions of our government are hurting its own people as well as millions of others around the world AND it is making enemies out of friends. It’s truly unbelievable what is happening to our country.

“This horse FUCKS!”

Good thing they are only hiring super qualified people based on merit

Currently reading “The Perfect Wife,” a psychological thriller by Blake Pierce. Read half of it in a day and I’ve really been enjoying the twists and turns. Anybody read this book or author before?

IF THEY COULD STOP RUINING LITERALLY EVERYTHING THAT WOULD BE GREAT

I’m not ignoring what’s going on by not posting, it’s just that there is such an overload of horrendous new headlines every moment of every day… it’s actually unbelievable that this is the reality we find ourselves in. It’s absolutely soul crushing.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

Also if anyone has a fave website or video for beginner crocheters lmk

Do not look away, we need to watch what they are doing. We can’t afford to ignore the severity of the actions they’re taking. #resist

It’s depressing how true that is 😣

Yes, but how to convey that to millions of people who don’t understand how tariffs or the global economy works?
