Tue Jun 23, 2026, 08:52 AM

Tuesday

after they did nothing while Trump crashed the economy, denied struggling families SNAP benefits, separated families and deported American citizens, sent ICE agents into blue states cities to terrorize/kill protestors, bombed Venezuelan fishing boats, turned the DOJ into his personal revenge machine, bypassed Congress to start an unprovoked winless war killing our military sons and daughters, bombed an Iranian girls school killing 163 children, threatened to wipe Iran off the face of the earth, destroyed the East Wing, humiliated the United States with his unhinged performance at the G7 summit.. and the insanity goes on and on..

So now the neutered Republicans are maybe/possibly/could be ready to say no to Trump after they sat on their assess and allowed Trump to desecrate our sacred national monuments..STFU!!
