I am not the guy who when asked about illegal actions says “hey what about groceries” but when tariffs raise the price of everything and they kill ACA subsidies to do big tax cuts I don’t think I should pivot to “democracy” or whatever.
No im not offended I just periodically have to remind folks that im posting because i want to talk to folks online and i do it in between and in addition to my core responsibilities. But than you.
I voted yes on Rubio, no on Noem, no on Ratcliffe, no on Bessent. Sometimes you are going to disagree with my legislative actions which is totally fine but you should know what they are.
I’m going to still help to drive an economic message fyi. If you are talking about grocery prices it doesn’t mean you are a coward who refuses to confront autocracy. Economic stuff matters very much to voters too. And you can draw a straight line from corruption to economic pain.
The story of this first week is corruption. Billionaires seated on the inaugural stage in front of the cabinet, crypto pump and dump, and the illegal firing of IGs. The media is acting like this is too chaotic and bewildering to interpret, but they are just afraid of sounding shrill. It’s corrupt.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"
