Wondering why #Republicans oppose EVERY measure that could reduce insulin and other prescription prices, curtail gun violence, ease the formula supply chain crisis, ensure fair wages and safe working conditions, or otherwise improve lives? It’s because reveling in the needless suffering of hardworking Americans is their recreational drug of choice. #politics
No thoughts and prayers for the thousands of misguided people who participated in the #January6th #insurrection imagining that it would succeed and that reinstalled Dear Leader would pardon them. Spoiler alert: Dear Leader has no use for you folks once you’ve served your treasonous purpose. There are always more losers and suckers ready to carry out the next siege. Enjoy prison. #politics
If you’re a #Republican Governor dreaming of new and more hateful ways to endanger and marginalize your #transgender constituents (especially during #PrideMonth), check with #NorthCarolina’s former Governor #PatMcCrory. He made the same mistake, and we flipped that seat from red to blue and never looked back. #Politics #LGBTQ #NC
I don’t know what the #January6thCommittee has in mind for #TedCruz, but I fully expect him to distract us and gaslight us about his role in the #insurrection. Don’t be fooled. His love of country is palpable, but that country is not America. #politics
A #PrideMonth cautionary tale for #GOP politicians contemplating hateful and divisive legislative overreach. If you’re a #Republican Governor thinking of new ways to endanger and marginalize your #transgender constituents, check with #NorthCarolina’s former Governor #PatMcCrory. He made the same mistake, and we flipped that seat from red to blue and never looked back. #Politics #LGBTQ #NC
There’s no mass shooting, natural disaster, economic setback, military misfortune, or national tragedy that can’t be made more painful by the howling media hyenas piling onto President Biden. In their failing quest for relevance, America’s “journalists” amplify our anguish, deepen our dread, and perpetuate our hopelessness. It’s almost as though they’re working for a domestic or foreign enemy seeking to undermine our Republic. #Politics
Anyone imagining that teachers being armed is the answer to ANYTHING should check out www.donorschoose.org and see what teachers REALLY need. One teacher needed a rug so that her 2nd graders could sit on the cold stone floor in an old #NewHampshire school building. Teachers should be revered in society; instead, we watch them struggle every day for the love of their profession and absurdly low pay. #Politics #GunViolence #Uvalde
If you’re a #Republican Governor planning new ways to endanger and marginalize your #transgender constituents, check with #NorthCarolina’s former Governor #PatMcCrory. He made the same fatal mistake, enraging constituents and businesses. We flipped that seat from red to blue, electing #Dem #RoyCooper, and never looked back. Pat is finished. #Politics #LGBTQ #NC
Some interesting results emerging from the #NorthCarolina primary with 7.38% of precincts reporting… Trump toady #TedBudd is leading the Republican vote for US Senate, far ahead of former NC Governor #PatMcCrory, but #CheriBeasley who leads the #Democratic ticket for US Senate has far more votes in this early voting… #Politics #NC

Cleaning up my house in advance of a visit from my mother-in-law and when I need more motivation, I imagine that I’m cleaning out the White House before #PresidentBiden moved in.

As #Republicans delight complicating every aspect of our lives and crushing our dreams of a better life, I can only conclude that the needless suffering of hardworking America is their drug of choice.
I’ve worked in some unhappy workplaces, but none filled with active #insurrectionists.
If you think #politics are irrelevant, and you’re unfazed by the prospect of the #GOP eliminating #SocialSecurity & #Medicare because you’re “young & healthy”, imagine how you’d ever pay off your student loans, start a business, buy a house, start a family, save for your kids’ college or your retirement with your parents - and in-laws - relying on you for their living expenses and healthcare. Then #VoteBlue and register others to do the same or kiss the American dream goodbye.
Women’s suffering
Seems to be the drug of choice
For #Republicans
#TedCruz, sad to say
Is an #insurrectionist
We have the receipts
My sincere hope for #Republican governors and legislators pushing hateful anti-#LGBTQ legislation is that they will be tossed out as summarily as voters in #NorthCarolina ditched #GOP Governor #PatMcCrory and flipped his red seat blue, electing #RoyCooper. Pat’s back now, trying to run for US #Senate, with smarmy TV ads saying “you remember me… I’m the guy who…” and, yes, Pat; we SURE DO, #VoteBlue #Politics #NC
