The Real Will

[Not Your Average Liberal @NotAvgLiberal]

To all the MAGA mother fuckers coming out of the woodwork to criticize me…

Know this -

I served my country.

2 Combat Deployments to Iraq.

Combat Wounded.

Degreed Mechanical Engineer.
P.E. / CPM.

I’ve been married to the same amazing woman for 30 years.

We’ve raised 2 amazing young women.

One’s working for a bank as a Jr VP.

The other in Nuclear Medicine.

Both making well over 6 figures.

One teenage son who aspires to be a radiologist.

Completely debt free.

My retirement portfolio puts little pricks like @RobSchneider to shame.

And I’m the one who’s a “Communist” and a “Traitor” to our country?

I’m an example of a man living out the American dream to its fullest.

I’m a man with empathy and morals.

I’m not a man who hides behind a cavalier of cherry picked bible verses.

And I sure as fuck don’t support a man who’s an adjudicated rapist and accused pedophile.

If you’re confused…

Read it again.

[Gino The Ghost @GinoTheGhost]

The Reflecting Pool is a perfect metaphor for the Trump administration:

- Ignore experts and science
- Overspend
- Declare early, historic victory
- "THE LEFT HATE THIS"
- Ends in total failure
- Unfounded conspiracies about sabotage
- MAGA pretends it doesn't actually matter

[Emanuel Quiñones @EQuinones6310]

The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.

And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.

Here is what they are discovering:

Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.

Then they found the grocery stores.

Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.

The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.

They finally understand why we do not have trains.

We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.

Why would we need trains.

The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.

Welcome to America!
The greatest country on earth.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

This is so accurate. I miss real leadership.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Are you actually seeing this post?

Ever since Donald threw his latest unhinged temper tantrum about me (again), folks have been telling me I've mysteriously vanished from their feeds. It appears the deeply unwell narcissist is so terrified of dealing with me in Congress that he’s begged @elonmusk to throttle my account.

This kind of pathetic desperation is nothing new. But I need YOU to help me beat Donald and Elon at their own game. Don't let a malignant sociopath and his billionaire enabler silence us.

Please like, retweet, and click the link below to support my campaign. Let's give him something to really cry about.

I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE MADURO REGIME IS STILL IN CHARGE OF VENEZUELA... THE IRGC REGIME IS STILL IN CHARGE OF IRAN... AND THE EPSTEIN REGIME IS STILL IN CHARGE OF AMERICA 🤷

[The Real Will @WLindseytx]

Definitely a cult!

[Glenn Tunes @glenn_tunes]

PROOF THAT MAGA IS A CULT🚨

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

As US troops deploy to the Middle East.

As gas prices spike.

As 92,000 jobs vanish in a single month.

As scores of children die in elementary schools.

As acid rain falls over Tehran.

As Switzerland breaks 200 years of neutrality to call it a war crime.

As Iran announces a new Supreme Leader.

As the Epstein files stay buried.

Donald Trump is playing golf.

At his own resort.

With his billionaire friends.

This is the man who said he’d lower your cost of living on day one.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Ossoff: How much do you guys know about Jared Kushner—Ivanka’s husband? He’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 billion. And now he’s leading American diplomacy in the Middle East, apparently, while at the very same time asking princes and sheikhs to give him billions more.

Can you imagine a normal sitting U.S. ambassador just hitting MBS for billions? But he’s a Trump, a royal, a princeling. The rules are for us, not for them.

And it’s not just Jared. Never before have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia has taken American corruption to spectacular new heights.

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

Let me walk you through what happened one hour before Trump announced the five day moratorium on Iran strikes.

$1.5 billion in notional S&P E-mini futures contracts. Four to six times normal activity.

One hour before the announcement.

Simultaneously, $192 million in crude oil futures purchased at the same time.

They made between $300 and $400 million dollars off those trades.

Trump claimed he spoke to an Iranian official to negotiate the moratorium.

The Iranians said that person doesn't exist and the conversation never happened.

This is not the first time.

It has happened multiple times. He says something. The trade goes on. He says another thing. The market moves.

But whatever you call it — they are laughing at you and they are laughing at me while they do it.

Hunter Biden sold a painting and Washington lost its mind.

These people are making hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars trading on information that only exists inside the most powerful office in the world.

I think we are dramatically underreporting how much money is actually being made here.

This isn't politics anymore.

This is a financial operation running out of the White House.

[Mr. Spock 🖖 (Commentary) @SpockResists]

After the Soviet Union collapsed, a group of corrupt wealthy oligarchs stole everything leaving the people with nothing.

This is what is happening.

Right now.

In the United States.

And so called “patriots” are cheering it on.

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

When I was out on Saturday for the No Kings protest, I saw many elderly folks with walkers and wheelchairs just like this. For you morons that think we get paid to protest, get your head out of your delusional ass. We don’t get a cent. We do this because we love our country. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Richard Stengel @stengel]

He is repeating every foreign and domestic policy mistake the US has made over the last five decades, but he's doing it with a gracelessness, cluelessness, and corruption that has no precedent.

[Jesus Chrysler @JesusChryslerII]

The only way to respond to GOP scapegoating…

[Glenn Tunes @glenn_tunes]

I JUST WANT TO REMIND EVERYONE THAT IRAN DID NOT HAVE ANY NUCLEAR WEAPONS AND THAT THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ WAS OPEN FOR BUSINESS BEFORE TRUMP STARTED THE EPSTEIN WAR 🤷

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Robert Mueller served this country with honor and distinction, having been awarded a Bronze Star, Purple Heart, and a slew of other military distinctions and awards.

trump, the so-called President of the United States, who dodged the draft and called our fallen "suckers and loser" posted the most VILE thing about Mr. Mueller's passing.

That there hasn't been a stampede of Republicans condemning his remarks should tell you everything you need to know about them, and the guy sending YOUR KIDS to war that nobody wants.

Robert Mueller was a HERO.
Donald trump is a ZERO.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Lindsey Graham on Fox News this morning:

“We’re going to blow the hell out of these people.”
This is a United States Senator. On television. Describing American military policy.

Not a threat. Not a warning. A promise.

Switzerland just called this a war crime. Spain refused to participate. London is in the streets. NYC is in the streets.

Acid rain is falling over Tehran. Scores of children are dead in elementary schools. A civilian airport is rubble. Freshwater plants bombed.

And a US Senator is on Fox News promising two more weeks of this.

Cuba is next after that.

Thirty years of Netanyahu saying Iran was weeks from a bomb. One week of Lindsey Graham promising to “blow the hell out of these people.”

This is who is speaking for America right now.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Amid unprecedented income & wealth inequality, oligarchs increasingly control our economy & media.

They’re undermining democracy with massive campaign contributions.

Our job: keep building a grassroots movement to create a government that works for all, not the few.
