Every day more instances of disgusting & blatant corruption revealed as our money is being plundered by the Trump Crime Family & their cronies. Do American voters care anymore about corruption? I guess we’ll find out soon because it’s just staggering with this crew of criminals.

We take taxis all the time now (especially to and from the airport). They're cheaper and they are pros. Also, there's always literally a huge cache of cabs waiting at LAX with zero line on one side and the other is idiots waiting for some Uber guy who accepted the ride and he's still 15 mins away

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoI recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

The Robber Baron era has nothing on our current Cyber Baron era. Elon Musk is the world’s richest man, a white nationalist, bought the 2024 election, destroyed much of the gov’t while further enriching himself with gov’t contracts, ended aid to the needy, turned Twitter into a cesspool and now:

They took away Medicaid from my 82 year old mom. They don't answer the phone and when she showed up in person, they refused to talk to her and told her to go home and call them. She got her low income senior housing because she qualified for Medicaid.
