Watching people melt down because Garth Brooks & Trisha Yearwood are advocating for people to help refugees in Ukraine who have had their homes, hospitals and schools indiscriminately bombed by invading Russian forces, while these same people also pretend to care about humanity, is a bit disconcerting.
- At least 6 Million Ukrainian civilians have had to flee their homes and their nation.
- At least another 8 Million Ukrainians have had to relocate within Ukraine.
I understand that there are homeless people in the United States.
Helping both groups is not mutually exclusive.
There are children who have had their homes destroyed, schools destroyed, friends killed, parents killed and lives turned upside down. To attack Garth because he's trying to help these people, is about as pathetic as it gets.

BREAKING: As FBI Director Christopher Wray begins his testimony before Congress, Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler put things perfectly:
"Ultimately, how many times Republicans attack the Director Wray or the FBI or the investigation at Mar-a-lago, I trust in the rule of law. I thank the men and women of the FBI who helped bring the classified information to safety and protect the national security of our nation. I hope your agents will not be disheartened from what they hear today."
Stop attacking the men and women of law enforcement and start holding those who are indicted accountable.
The FBI arrests 20,000 alleged bad guys a year. The FBI saves countless American lives each month.

Happy Birthday USA!
This time in 2018, Republican Senators Ron Johnson, John Kennedy, Richard Shelby, Steve Daines, John Hoeven, John Thune and Jerry Moran were all in Moscow, preparing to celebrate Independence Day.
Before you all tell me to stop being divisive, this is NOT an attack, but simply a factual statement. Take it for what it's worth.
We can all work together to make this nation stronger, less divided and more united than ever. The first step in this process is to elect politicians who put America's interests before their personal interests. This goes for both sides of the political spectrum.

NEWSFLASH: The popularity of a politician can not be proven by a bunch of people at a rally.
I'm tired of people pretending that just because a lot of people show up at a Trump rally in a super red area of the country in South Carolina to see an entertainer and former president speak, that means the man speaking is incredibly popular when zooming out and looking at the nation as a whole.
There are 340 million Americans in this country, stop pretending that video clips mean as much as they do. Yes people like him, but they liked him in 2020 as well, and he lost by 7 million votes. This was prior to 71 felony counts against him.

BREAKING: At today’s Trump rally, Republican South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham goes on stage and gets completely humiliated by his hometown crowd as the they boo him non-stop for over two minutes as soon as he tries to start his speech.
But it got even WORSE for Graham…
The booing didn’t stop, and he couldn’t get them to stop — even with desperate pleas…
First, Lindsey Graham tried to beg his hometown crowd to “please calm down,” but it only made them boo him louder.
Then, Graham pulled out his wildcard, reminding the crowd that he “was born in this county” and “lived 15 minutes down the road!”
Unfortunately for Graham, he forgot that Trump’s cult only has loyalty for Trump — and they continued to boo him even louder, leaving Graham red-faced and humiliated on stage.
It’s a pathetic and fitting end to Graham’s political career. He sold his soul to the devil — and now even his hometown voters have disowned him.
He should have known better than to hitch his wagon to a treasonous cult leader, and now he’s playing the price.

BREAKING: Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is humiliated after the floor of Congress erupts, chanting, "Shame shame, shame!” at McCarthy after he censured Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff over his investigations into Donald Trump.
But it gets worse for McCarthy…
ABC News reports that McCarthy tried to control the outburst against him, but “the banging of his gavel could barely be heard over Democrats yelling that the move was a "disgrace" and more.
As the vote was called, Democratic Congresdman Eric Swalwell shouted at McCarthy, “It's pathetic that you're doing this. Pathetic!”
ABC reports that “Schiff was surrounded by fellow Democrats in the chamber, many of whom high-fived and embraced him as he walked towards the front,” and that “multiple Democrats screamed, “What about Santos?"

Breaking: Marjorie Taylor Greene, who promised multiple times that she, along with McCarthy would release all the Jan 6th tapes to multiple media organizations, has now took an abrupt turn. She now blames George Soros for why the tapes won't be released.
"If we release all the J6 tapes widely for the public, we would endanger many Americans who were simply standing on the Capitol grounds, maybe never even walked through the Capitol or committed any crimes. Soros groups dox these people then give their information to the FBI."
Why am I not surprised that she's blaming Soros for the reason why she lied to the American public after the House selectively released the video to Fox News to spread an out-of-context narrative.
I want to hear from Conservatives on this one? Isn't transparency what we were promised? How is this ok?

Today House Republicans will pass a bill to retroactively charge student loan borrowers interest on their paused payments, repeal @POTUS' student loan debt relief plan, and claw back aid from public servants.
Cruelty is the point.

BREAKING: Ron DeSantis—who should be banned from the White House grounds—is announcing his bound to fail run for president tomorrow.
DeSantis passed some of the most hateful, asinine and ignorant laws in the country, and he’s losing his battle with Mickey Mouse.
DeSantis should NEVER be president. He shouldn’t even hold elected office.

BREAKING: Mar-a-Lago insiders drop bombshell, reveal that Trump and his “wife” Melania “have a very unique arrangement” in which Melania “stays out of his way” because “they live separate lives that rarely intersect and have done so for some time.”
But it gets worse for Trump.
The very telling report also reveals that “Melania has no interest” in helping Trump get re-elected and rarely appears at his events and lives apart from him at the club.”
The report continues, “Melania was nowhere to be found on the day when Trump was arrested and arraigned in a Manhattan courtroom. Nor was she anywhere to be found when he gave a speech at Mar-a-Lago after he returned from New York that evening.”
Please RT and ❤️ if you are glad that we once again a have a REAL First Couple in the White House like President Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden — and consider joining Tribel, a new pro-democracy Twitter alternative that is exploding in popularity because Trump and Elon Musk are attacking it.
