This is a message to MAGA-Republicans you keep saying that Democrats want free stuff and that the government can't do anything right so you voted for Trump. It's time for a little education.
This was posted on Congressman James Clyburn's X page and also on Newsweek's site. It shows a disturbing image that will continue to remind us that Trump marked his territory, just like a wolf in the wild does.
Trump's White House Press Conference from November 9th.
Fact Checkers counted 45 untruths, not counting the repeats and his view that everything is going swimmingly in the US speaks for itself.

“Affordability” isn’t just about bringing prices down (which is incredibly hard to do) but also about bringing incomes up. This is possible without a shift in power from the oligarchy to the people. This is where anti-corruption comes in. robertreich.substack.com/p/i…
Perfect example of why Republicans have lost their majority and when the Trump Cabal blatantly disrespects our foundational concept as a free and democratic country, they richly deserve the inevitable outcome from their traitorous actions.
JUST IN: A Trump judicial nominee was asked point blank: is Trump eligible to run for a third term?
Their answer: “I would have to review the actual wording…”
Sen. Chris Coons then asked every nominee in the room to confirm the Constitution bars a third term.
Silence.
Every single one of them refused to say it.
Trump is appointing judges who won’t affirm the 22nd Amendment to his face.
Never stop connecting the dots.
Ever since the industrial revolution technology has displaced human labor and it's always been called progress. So here we are with AI; is that any different than any other displacement, it's progress, isn't it?
HELL NO, NOW YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO TELL WHAT'S AI AND WHAT'S HUMAN!

I can only hope that the US will get its act together and become a leader of the free world once again. It may take until 2028's Presidential Elections, and it may never happen again, but I am hopeful.🗽
Thank you for giving us the confidence that, at any moment, Denmark stands with us – and that Denmark truly wants the best for Ukraine.
There is something really special about this feeling knowing that someone truly wishes you well.
I feel this every time I speak with Mette. And every time I speak with people from Denmark.
Every time, I feel the same thing – your intentions are truly good. I think it’s because this is simply who you are. And because you understand something very simple, but very wise – treat others the way you would want to be treated.
This is part of your Danish spirit – what you call “samfundssind” – the belief that we are responsible not only for ourselves, but for others too. In today’s world, treating others this way is truly priceless. Thank you for that – thank you for being Denmark – a country that acts with heart, and confidence, a country that we in Ukraine – and everyone in Europe – can always count on.
From a speech at the Danish Folketing. (1/3)

The Republican led Congress used its legislative appropriations power to claw back $1.1 billion from PBS and NPR. So why can't the Democratic led Congress when they take over, claw back some of the billions given to ICE to fund some of our social services again?
I'm a registered independent and I voted against Trump's authoritarianism. That means I voted for Democrats. That means I expect them to do what they said they would.🗽

While the Democrats will remain in the minority in Congress until January, they are making it clear they intend to hit the ground running. Already they are putting forward measures to address both affordability and accountability.

I joined the Army in January 1969, not because I wanted to go into the military, but because I didn't want to run to Canada to dodge the draft. Back then wearing a uniform got you nothing but grief and a discount on airfare. I'm glad that's changed for our vets today.🗽
Trump has become a danger to the entire world.🗽

Keeping fingers crossed that Democrats do their job.
