Now in my 70's...and as a life-long GOP party member until 10 years ago (enter in the Trump era) i have many questions of the MAGA followers but will ask only two. Do you have loved ones and/or relatives/friends currently getting some form of Medicare or other gov't assistance? Did most of you get the mumps, measles, polio, etc. vaccines when you were a young child? If you answer yes to either question, why then support a man and his administration for what are clearly benefits afforded to us...years ago...and now?

Hey thanks for that list of House of Reps who refuse to sign for Epstein files release. One of them is a cousin, so I will be letting him know what I think of his stance in this matter.

I hope you tell him he or she is a gutless coward, because they are. They're shielding a guilty man.

Best of luck!!! The only person I truly love that supported Bunkerboy has become very disheartened as he is starting to suffer. (My best friend I knew before my current "BFF.") Hopefully these minutely failures and blatent, Facist attacks on THEM will break them out of The Deathcult! 🤞

Florida has always had more than its fair share of odd balls and lunatics, but, now they reside in the state house.

Removing vaccine mandates; removing street and sidewalk art that local communities revere; preventing towns from enforcing their own ordinances on tree removal & short term rentals; refusing Medicaid expansion; illegally using Medicaid funds to fight a marijuana citizen ballot; giving tuition grants to those attending private schools (regardless of income); building Alligator Alcatraz with Florida funds for ICE, against federal laws; changing Florida’s sunshine laws to allow the governor to obscure expenditures, visiting guests and stonewall requests for state data. And that’s only under the DeSantis administration who seems hell bent on being a bigger bully than Trump.

Our blue city is under constant attack by the Tallahassee gang MAGA of misfits.

Remember when life, complicated as it may have been, DIDN'T involve waking up every day knowing our own "officials" and so-called "supreme" court (majority) are actively trying to destroy the nation and kill us all?

Mannn I miss that 😮‍💨

Just sent my representative an email challenging him to be a 'better man' than what he has allowed himself to become. Thank you for the list.

Yes. I firmly believe MAGA is collapsing under its own weight. He is a guilty man trying to flee a reckoning he has long, long deserved and he is finally, FINALLY running out of track to do so with.

Soda, you are so right. A total release of Epstein files may very well implicate 47, one way or another, to the extent it may destroy the MAGA movement and thus the end of Republicans in control.

Is it true that Trump ordered a flyover at the same time the victims were speaking? If so, sheesh.

Wonder if Florida will become a swing state again? After all the Damage done.

I do not wish harm on others, but either this season or next (in time for the 2026 elections) there will be a large hurricane ripping into Florida (because that is what they do) and FEMA will be a sad joke upon the people. As MAGA continues to fail them, the same people who passed a state amendment to give ex-felons the vote (which the state then sabotaged) may decide they can do better.

I have a theory. The reason we continue to get numbers from this government that do not make Trump look great is that this MAGA administration has not been able to find any MAGA that can do math well enough to cheat at it in a way that would not be obvious.

I hope Trump’s relationship with Epstein will be his downfall! He is obviously really scared! But changing Dept of Defence to Dept of War really is a stupid diversion stunt!

What exactly is the point of the Epstein files? All the victims have already come forward, Epstein is dead. I admit DOJ giving Maxwell aid and comfort looks suspicious. However if the real target is DJT, victims have had years to come forward on him and have not. Given our many other problems this is just another distraction inadvertnetly giving Trump the delay and distraction he thrives on.

Move on. Inflation is still rampant, Russia, China, NK and Iran are much bigger threats. The files are just another cheap, madeup for drama that goes nowhere and accomplishes nothing.

So were the Epstein files in the bags tossed out Trump's White House window?
