#Republicans currently hold 25 of #Texas’ 38 seats. That’s nearly a 2-to-1 advantage & already a wider partisan gap than the 2024 presidential results: #Trump won 56.1% of Texas ballots, while #Democrat #KamalaHarris received 42.5%.
Supported giving weapons to Israel which is documented as being used on children in Gaza. #democrat #uspol #weaponsofchildrendestruction

Ohio #Democrat Dr. Amy Acton was suspended from X after calling for the #Epstein files to be released and demanding that her opponent in the Ohio Governor’s race, Vivek Ramaswamy, do the same.
RETWEET if you stand with #AmyActonOH!
What a #Democrat Could Do With Trump’s [#Appropriated] #Power
In this 1st year of his 2nd term, #Trump has claimed broad powers to unilaterally restructure much of how the US govt functions. Some…have gone completely unchallenged. Others have been litigated, & although lower courts have been skeptical of many of these efforts, #SCOTUS has been more approving.

…Sen Jeanne Shaheen (NH), the ranking #Democrat on the cmte, who initiated the report, said…, “#Democrats & #Republicans alike agree on one thing: that one of the biggest threats to our future in the #UnitedStates, both our #economic & our #NationalSecurity future, is competition with #China. And yet as I look at what the administration has done since it came into office, they have made decision after decision that undercut any coordinated strategic response to how we deal with China.”

Commenting on #Republican readiness to abandon their opposition to the bill, #Democratic representative #JohnLarson said: "What you see here is reconciliation with the #king."
"They all talk a good game. But ultimately, they cave," the #Connecticut #Democrat told Reuters. "You have to give a nod to #Trump on how he's able to exert this *influence*."
"The focus of this bill, the justification for all of the cuts that will hurt everyday Americans is to provide massive #TaxBreaks for #billionaires,” #House Minority Leader #HakeemJeffries said.
Jeffries said every #Democrat stood in opposition to the '#OneBigBeautifulBill'.
"We're standing up for the American people," he added.
So, #Trump is famously #lazy. Can't be bothered to read briefings, doesn't like working in general, would rather be enjoying leisure while paying a young woman to follow him around with a wireless printer, printing out any news stories she finds where people say nice things about Trump (no, I am not joking about this).
So people point to the amount of time he just takes off from "work" to go golfing. See, for example:
https://trumpgolftrack.com/
It's pointing out that of the 163 days he has currently spent in office, he was actually out-of-office golfing for 38 of them.
I'm not sure why these 38 / 163 days are a big deal. The Democratic party has been absent for 163 of them.
Yet Another Reason (why some people think the #Democrat are not all that different from #Republicans)
There was a #Democratic #primary in #NYC. Establishment Democrats are /not/ endorsing the winner.
I'm old enough to remember being told to, "#voteBlue no matter who."
I also remember how #Dems said they were trying to reach out to younger #voters.
WTF Democrats?
#ZohranMamdani won the primary fair and square.
Vote the Blue, no matter who!
It's not a messaging problem — it's a priority problem. When corporate donors and voters want opposite things, guess who usually wins? Spoiler: it's not you.
