I'll grudgingly allow folks' right to vote for the asshole in '16 and '20- in '24 no - they all saw what happened on Jan 6 and were ok with that - they are violent people... who also want to take my vote away

The President bought up to $5M in Dell stock on 10 Feb.

On 8 May, he told Americans to "buy a Dell."

Dell just a $9.7B Pentagon contract.

The Pentagon is not his portfolio.

When the Commander in Chief profits from what he commands, that is corruption. Congress must investigate.

What will happen with the '28 presidential election if Democrats don't take the House in '26?

House will not certify a Democratic presidential win and the vote will go to the House where they will install the GOP candidate

PS : This pattern will continue as GOP is now completely anti-democracy

Dems = Pro-Democracy
GOP = Anti-Democracy

There's your mid-term message Democrats - use it or lose it - Democracy itself is the ONLY issue y'all

Hey Senate Dems and most Congressional Dems- you abandoned our values when you voted to honor someone who opposes them- we can condemn violence while ALSO criticizing political views that go against everything we believe in - read the room y'all - rank and file Dems want y'all to put up a fight!

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's order to arm National Guard troops in D.C. is a reckless escalation. Soldiers aren't trained for police work—this only increases the risk of violence. We need leaders who de-escalate, not turn our streets into war zones.

Secretary Collins, this is a test of leadership—will you stand with veterans or stand by?
