I wish conservatives understood this:
Without blue states, America would look like a developing country — patchy internet, collapsing schools, no tech, no medicine, no future.
Red states cash the checks. Blue states write them.
You don’t fund the nation — you drain it. The loudest shouts come from the emptiest hands.
Republicans shut down the government 16 days ago—and still haven’t done a damn thing to fix the mess they made.
But here’s what they have been doing:
• Trump hosted a fundraiser at the White House to pay for his ballroom while workers miss paychecks.
• The Supreme Court heard oral arguments about gutting voting rights.
• The Trump administration just pledged $40 Billion to Argentina while they can’t figure out how to fund the government or how to prevent healthcare costs from rising.
Again, they keep screaming “America First” while constantly putting Americans last.
Trump is about to steal nearly 20 more seats in Congress.
The Supreme Court is poised to wipe away the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and eliminate representation for black and brown communities across our country.
The GOP knows they cannot win. They are threatening Governors. Rigging maps across the country. And have now recruited SCOTUS to do their dirty work, too.
In June 2025, Democratic elected official Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, along with their dog, were assassinated by a Trump supporter
Trump did not lower the flags to half-mast
He did not attend their funeral
President Biden, on the other hand, knelt before their coffins
In the last few years we've seen:
- The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer
- The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC
- The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi
- Multiple assassination attempts against Trump
- The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife
- Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson
- The assassination of Charlie Kirk
Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all.
The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.
If you're praying for Charlie Kirk, I'm praying with you!
If you're using this to create a narrative of political violence from the LEFT, Im going to remind you that a MAGA man and Trump supporter just assassinated Democratic official Melissa Hortman and her husband less than 3 months ago
