@greendragonhq The Republican Party has abandoned the American people!
English

I saw this video yesterday and assumed Mike Johnson was on SNL, that’s how outrageously out of touch the Republican party is.
Mike Johnson is actually making an argument that we should allow insider trading because his $170k/year salary is not enough to live off of.
This is the same guy that said a $7.25/hr minimum wage was enough to live on.

Here is:
FBI Director Kash Patel sums up in just about 45 seconds what took two years to prove—without a shadow of a doubt—that Barack Obama conspired with a foreign power to overthrow the United States government.
@FBIDirectorKash “It took me two years of my life to prove the following: that a political party in the United States of America, in the 21st century, would go overseas and hire some bogus intelligence asset to manufacture fraudulent, fake, unverified information, funnel that not just to the intelligence community but to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and then take those packaged lies they had paid for with campaign finance funds and go into a secret surveillance court to illegally spy on their opponent to be the next president of the United States.
I think that was 45 seconds. That took two years of my life. And what did we find out?
The FISA court themselves came back and said these warrants were illegal, that the FBI did not provide exculpatory evidence, and that the FBI essentially lied in those applications.”
It was a coup. It was treachery. It was sedition. It was treason. It was the overthrow of the United States government.

@MAGAVoice MAGA have to be the dumbest people on the planet 🌏

I am bawling my eyes out. Thousands of Christians erupt when President Trump calls in to READ Bible Verse 2 Chronicles 7:11-22:
"Thus Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the king's house: and all that came into Solomon's heart to make in the house of the Lord, and in his own house, he prosperously effected.
And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.
If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.
For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
And as for you, if thou wilt walk before me, as David your father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded you, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments;
Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David your father, saying, There shall not fail you as a man to be ruler in Israel.
But if you turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations.
And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why has the Lord done thus unto this land, and unto this house?
And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them”
WE ARE SO BACK ❤️

🇺🇸NEWS: FBI Director Kash Patel used a government Gulfstream V to fly his country singer girlfriend to a George Strait concert.
He watched the show from a luxury suite reported at $35,000 to $50,000.
Then he flew her home on the same FBI jet.
Same week: a “VIP snorkel” at the underwater tomb of 900 sailors and Marines at Pearl Harbor.
The pattern from the same NYT investigation is now public.
Four SWAT agents and two SUVs guarding his girlfriend in Nashville. The detail estimated at $1 million a year. SWAT escorts to a hair appointment.
An FBI official suggested a threat assessment to determine if any of it was justified. Patel berated him.
A New York Times reporter wrote about the SWAT detail. The FBI opened an investigation into the reporter. The DOJ shut it down and called it retaliation.
What is the FBI for when the FBI Director uses it as a personal concierge service and turns it on the people who notice?

🚨 NO WAYYY:
At a federally-funded prayer event on the National Mall today, MAGA radio host Eric Metaxas told thousands of Christians that God spent two centuries waiting to raise up Donald Trump — to build a ballroom.
His verbatim words:
“It’s hard to believe that it would take two centuries for the Lord to raise up a great man to bring that ballroom finally to stand where it needs to stand. It’s extraordinary. We only had to wait two hundred years.”
The crowd cheered.

@RpsAgainstTrump 😢😢😢 Who wouldn’t trade places with these do nothing and get paid?
English

Mike Johnson wants people struggling with soaring gas prices, rent, and grocery bills to feel bad for members of Congress making “only” $174K a year, getting great healthcare, and taking months of vacation every year, and he’s using that to justify trading stocks while in office.
Totally out of touch
English

@RepJackKimble Vote them all out of office and stop the free ride.

@adamemedia1 @theliamnissan These people do not represent the majority of Americans people!
English

“WE NEED TO LET THEM DO INSIDER TRADING TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES”
That was the actual argument just made in defense of politicians trading stocks.
Members of Congress make $174,000 a year.
The median American income is roughly $63,000. (3x less)
Meanwhile the federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour… also unchanged since 2009.
And you’re seriously being told politicians need access to insider trading to survive.
The system is designed to lead earth to neo-feudalism.
And it’s becoming more brazen by the year.
Asset ownership consolidates upward.
Living standards decline downward.
The middle class gets squeezed from both ends and disappears while the elite class accumulates more wealth, more influence, and more protection.
Leaving behind a permanent underclass.
And a permanent political-financial aristocracy at the top…

@JoshEakle My god they have free healthcare, dental and vision. They get free lunch. Lobbyists supplement their income by thousands of dollars and we are supposed to feel sorry for them?

@atrupar Trump and party are the biggest fraud to the American people!
English

Q: You’re suing the government. Is it fair to ask Americans to pay for that?
Trump: I’m giving it to charity
Q: But that still takes it from the American people
Trump: No, because they give money to charity….@Acyn (2026)

I've got enough experience doing this to know that it's probably going to be weeks rather than months for Mr. Atlas. Our wonderful house dog at @wearehappydoggo has had two huge operations and we've given him every chance imaginable.
I've just noticed in the past few days that his energy levels have dropped. He's taken an extra hour in his bed. He's having longer lounges on the couch. His energy has dipped and his eyes are just that little bit cloudy. that has all been confirmed by blood work and lots of different tests.
We are a rescue and ultimately we're judged on how many dogs we can save. I always knew that it would be a quality of life thing with Atlas and that ultimately we would not be able to give him a long life. I do happen to believe, though, that the work we do in making these dogs happy at the end of their lives is just as important as anything else we do at scale.
Atlas is still at that stage where he has great spurts of energy and goes on walks and looks for attention from all his favorite humans. We'll wrap him up in cotton wool, pamper him, shower him in love and get him all the meds he can have. No stone will go unturned to make sure Atlas continues to live his dream life while he can.
I always say that dogs live in the moment. Atlas can't remember his horrid times on the streets or his massive tumor that he carried around for years. All he knows is the love, attention, great food, and wonderful life he will have today. Every other day will be a bonus and we’ll be with him every step of the way ❤️
