As someone who has personally faced the wrath of Trump & the right-wing for standing up for what is right, I understand how difficult it may be to object to orders from a superior that you know are illegal. Remember your oath, place your country above your own interest, and know you are not alone.

I’ve worked with Bridget. She was an excellent Ambassador. She served in the toughest assignment the U.S. Government had, U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine during the war. She’s served America for decades and fought Trump’s absurd pro-Russian, anti-Ukraine actions. She will make a terrific Representative!

I’ve dedicated my life to protecting democracy & fighting for freedom. It’s why we stood up to Putin and why I spoke out against Trump. My next mission: fighting for what’s right here at home. I’m running for #MI07 because it's time to put Michigan families first and fight back.

These folks hold nothing dear. They can only destroy and are incapable of creating anything. They are the worst of us and nothing will fill that empty hole where their souls should be, so they eventually turn on each other. The reason is irrelevant. Could be literally anything.

What is happening? Tucker’s fighting with everyone now. Weren’t these his party buddies? This is like all the Trump guys on Joe Rogan suddenly calling for Trump to be impeached. What is happening? Were they all changing their mind and just waiting for an excuse they could use and the war is it?

As much fun as the TACO memes are, don't forget what that stands for: TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT. It would be a shame to ignore the chicken memes that are there for the taking. Here's a little Starter Kit you might need. ENJOY!

These legislators should be forced to vote on each Commandment separately—not an omnibus package—& no one should be allowed to vote for a Commandment they've violated lest they violate the Third Commandment. Or: they should respect the Establishment Clause & get back to work.
