@CynicalPublius Ok facist…commie….
If you support in anyway the way this administration has handled our government then you are truly a facist. You can sit here and try to paint the Democrats as the bad guy but at least we think of our fellow man. We make the effort to try to improve all lives
BREAKING: Rep. Jamie Raskin demolishes Trump over his idiotic "Triumphal Arch" project, which he now claims will be a “top grade military complex” that hosts snipers and drones.
And the congressman came packing a knockout punch...
“Does Trump understand no one wants his stupid arch? Dressing it up as a military necessity doesn’t help," Raskin wrote on X. America is sick of the military being used as an excuse for Trump’s architectural whims and narcissistic fancies."
Nobody outside of the most gullible MAGA supporters believes that D.C. actually needs some kind of elaborate arch, armed to the teeth, and stocked with ammunition. This is a transparent attempt on Trump's part to gussy up a wasteful vanity project as an urgent national security need. He's been making similar claims about his White House ballroom.
“Congress will never support this idiocy, but if you want to know what’s actually unique about Washington, it’s that it’s the only national capital on planet Earth not represented in its own legislature,” Raskin added. “Why don’t we talk about D.C. statehood instead of this arch-imbecility?”
This is a much better D.C.-related proposal but Republicans adamantly oppose it because they're terrified of Democrats gaining new seats. Even so, the case for statehood is exceptionally strong. Why shouldn't the capital — which has a population of roughly 693,000 people — receive equal representation in the House and Senate? Wyoming has just 588,000 people and it exerts enormous influence on national legislation through its elected officials.
But instead of debating a real issue like statehood, we're going to get stuck discussing Trump's asinine Triumphal Arch. Pop quiz: which triumph exactly is he celebrating? He's been inspired by the Arc de Triomphe in Paris which was commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte, seen by many historians as the greatest general who ever lived, after his victory at Battle of Austerlitz.
Trump has no such victories. His disastrous Iran War has turned into perhaps the greatest strategic defeat in the history of the U.S. military. Iran is stronger than ever, exerting direct control over the Strait of Hormuz, and American munitions have been all but exhausted. Closer to home, he has been waging an illegal war and blowing up so-called "drug smugglers" which in many cases have turned out to be innocent fisherman.
Despite his delusions to the contrary, Donald Trump is not some conquering caesar bestriding a world that quakes in his shadow. He's a demented old pedophile knee-deep in failure.
Please ❤️ and share if you support D.C. statehood!
@19TRIGGER71 You and your maga ilk are fucking morons. This bitch is paid to lie and any stupid fuck that believes any of this deserves to be deprogrammed . Fucking misinformation producing illiterate miscreants, MAGats=💩🧠
McCONnell is a perfect example of GOP policy.
They want YOU to give them all the things a functioning Democracy affords, while cutting the services YOU pay taxes on should you need them.
The basic safety net they oppose for YOU, they give to themselves.
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Fox Business just HUMILIATED Donald Trump and his plan to send every American $5,000. Even Fox is calling this plan "non-sense".
Garcia: I never got a DOGE dividend check. I never got my tariff dividend check. I’m certainly not getting a $5,000 dividend check because they don’t exist. I just want to remind the American public—should be reminded—that this guy is the biggest liar in the history of American politics. He’s lying to you. It’s not happening.
The Constitution had an answer for moments when the republic was outmatched: letters of marque and reprisal.
