Are people beginning to recognize why protest voting is fucking stupid? That, if you have to choose between the lesser of two evils, then choose the lesser of two evils. Because the more evil choice can become the personification of evil.
To Republican elected officials, donors, activists and voters who’ve been persuaded to support or acquiesce in the renomination of this man: Watch this! And then try to tell yourself it’s fine, that this is the president you want and that the country deserves for four more years.
I’m fucking sick of this. I am diagnosed with:
- Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
- Major Depression, Recurring
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder
I’ve never shot up a mall.
This was never about mental illness. You KNOW it was never about mental illness. It’s *guns* and ideology.
Please RT. The benefits of Special Olympics, which I have seen first hand as volunteer are IMMEASURABLE. DeVos proposal to cut their funding will adversely affect thousands with developmental disabilities. Don't let this happen! I support @SpecialOlympics https://t.co/sGiUZnor9O
Cuts to autism funding and ending all for @SpecialOlympics is outrageous. When I was chair of the House Budget Cmte, we worked to balance the budget & these types of programs were off limits – for good reason. Hope ldrs in DC stop this ridiculous proposal. https://t.co/7Y6VxyKQW8
My daughter is a Special Olympian. It has been a tremendous, enriching experience for her and millions of others. Zeroing out funding for the @SpecialOlympics is a heartless act that I hope and trust Congress will reject.
Treating national budgets like personal budgets, taking from state funds for pet projects, is a classic symptom of weak democraciesb - there are bridges, mosques and airports around the world with strongmen’s names on them built the same way.
In the Tapper administration it will become law that when there’s a government shutdown the first people to lose their paychecks are the ones in charge of negotiating funding for the government — top officials of the executive and legislative branches.
