Mike Johnson on CNN and Fox News polls that show how unpopular Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act is:

“I'm not buying that, polls can be manipulated.”

it.

The firing of LIsa Cook is the first step for implementing unitary executive theory, believing he is accountable to no one, which means no checks and balances.

I wouldn't count on THIS supreme court to save our Democracy.

The only way to prevent this, is for anyone who is against trump and what he is doing with the republican congress is to massively vote straight Democratic in the midterms. That means becoming unified to ONE CAUSE, and that is stopping the republican dismantling of our Democracy.

If we continue internal fighting and divisions among ourselves, we are only doing what they want us to do.

They can only win if they divide us. We shouldn't help them along the way.

This needs to be the paramount issue, because all other issues will be moot if they cannot be stopped.
