  1. Let’s stop pretending this is normal.
    What we’re watching right now is damage, not leadership. 🤬

    Republicans aren’t fixing anything. They’re breaking things and blaming everyone else while they do it.

    Trump promised “no wars” and “lower gas prices.”
    Reality check: prices have jumped hard across the Midwest, and families are paying for it every single day at the pump. ⛽

    This isn’t complicated. When you vote for people who run on slogans instead of results, you get exactly what we’re seeing now.

    Voting for them again in the midterms? That’s like cutting off your own nose just to prove a point. It doesn’t hurt them. It hurts YOU.

    🧠 What people can do right now:
    • Look up actual gas price trends in your area, not political talking points
    • Pay attention to policies, not campaign slogans
    • Talk to neighbors about real costs hitting Missouri families
    • Show up and vote based on results, not party loyalty

    This isn’t team sports. This is your wallet, your future, and your country.

    People deserve better than this.

  3. 🚨 Texas alert: Democrats hold a primary ballot edge 🔵 Democrats: 1,191,936 🔴 Republicans: 1,027,566 This is not a fluke—shows where power is shifting. Texas done once, Democrats positioned to stay competitive for decades. Get ready, the Lone Star State is turning.🔵💪 #BlueWave #TexasTrend #VoteSmart

  4. If I could do so safely, I would leave today. In fact, I tried to leave in early 2020, but the damn COVID-19 pandemic happened. I had someone willing to sponsor me to become a Canadian citizen.

    Canada is not perfect — no nation is — but you have far more people in Canada who vote smartly.

    By “smartly,” I mean voting for the person you want and believe in, not just because someone said, “Vote blue no matter who.” Who you vote for matters.

    Donald Trump is an asshole. But he is a symptom of a much larger problem.

    I’m not saying don’t vote for Democrats — that’s nonsense. I’m saying vote progressively. Often that will be a Democrat, but that is not always guaranteed. Sometimes the progressive candidate will be a Democrat, Independent, Green, or something else. If you want real change and don’t want to repeat history, we need to move left. If we don’t, we will just keep making the same mistakes over and over again.

    Four years before Donald Trump’s second term, we could have done something to prevent it. Four years before that — eight years ago — we could have stopped his first term. We did neither because corporate Democrats, who were not progressives, claimed unity was more important than accountability and tried to work with these pedophile Nazis. They will do it again if we let them.

  8. Harper is still a conniving jerk, i see.

    “I worked closely with the late and great Jim Flaherty during the financial crisis,” Mr. Carney said on Tuesday. 
“I note that Pierre Poilievre was not at any of those tables, was not given any of that responsibility, and note further that in subsequent years, he has not gained any responsibility in managing crises or difficult situations.”

  11. A majority of my life I've had to fend for myself with very few people in my corner. That's all I know, but I know how to survive. So today, I don't vote for me. I vote for the younger people and the one's to follow. Girls, boys, gay, straight, trans, black, brown, purple, white etc. It's your country and your rights. I'm sorry for this broken country.
