We haven’t discussed it because I was wanting to see how it would shake out.
Joy Behar of The View was right.
You vote for the former President who undid the safety rules.
You vote for the Governor who won’t declare it a disaster area.
You vote for the Governor who has accepted $$$$ from the polluter.
You stand on the stage with the former President WHO UNDID THE SAFETY RULES involved in this accident😒
But, you don’t want to live with the consequences of your votes.
What you got from Republicans is EXACTLY what your vote asked for. That is them. Those are their policies.
But, you don’t want THOSE policies…even though you voted for them🤔
Suddenly, when shyt hits the fan, you are looking for Democrats and their policies to save you?

your reminder that Donald Trump fucking bragged about gutting rail safety regulations and every Republican voted with him and Mike DeWine turned down FEMA aid and now these culpable shitfucks have the fucking nerve to blame Joe Biden. fuck that bullshit

I know that’s right✊🏾
Mayor told Biden not to come.
DeWine not answering or returning Biden's phone calls.
Mayor welcomes Trump in a county that voted 75% for him.And y'all are mad at Biden and Buttigieg?
Man, fck you.

Buttigieg: This is somebody who.. never went to a derailment site when one of those happens on his watch. And there were thousands. Even ones with fatalities. Never even sent his transportation secretary to go. Now that it's campaign season, I guess things are different. pic.twitter.com/g0Cyzu96Bi

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House is calling on congressional Republicans to increase the fines levied on rail companies for safety violations, as a fiery Feb. 3 train derailment in Ohio has become a political lightning rod.https://t.co/McNaNLqPRW

East Palestine Mayor Trent Conaway defends saying it was “the biggest slap in the face” for President Biden to visit Ukraine while Ohio deals with chemical fallout from the train derailment:

Your friendly reminder from @foxandfriends:

Hold on – the mayor of #EastPalenstine told Biden not to come because they couldn’t handle the security detail, but now is now standing next to trump who is LITERALLY using the town for a campaign photo op while complaining that Biden didn’t visit? pic.twitter.com/gDRgjEjNBe

Do you know how fucking deranged you have to be to bring thousands of bottles of your discontinued water brand to a town that had a chemical spill which is at LEAST partially a direct result of your own administration’s negligence?

Dishonest Tucker Carlson is pushing a new fiction— East Palestine’s plight is a tale about “woke” Democrats abandoning White communities in the forgotten heartland
The true tale is profit-driven railroads skimping on safety & pushing to weaken regulationshttps://t.co/drjYbA4xoA

Now that Fox News has been decisively exposed as rank propaganda, Dems need to fundamentally adjust their posture. No more treating Fox as a news outlet in any sense at all.

I asked Greene’s office last night about her tweet blaming the Biden administration for these deaths in 2020 under Trump. Spokesman Nick Dyer responded by saying lots of people have died from drugs under Biden and “do you think they give a fuck about your bullshit fact checking?”

I also gave Greene congressional spokesman Nick Dyer an opportunity to comment regarding Greene’s multiple false claims yesterday about the 2020 election, such as the lies that Trump won Georgia and that there were thousands of dead voters there. His response: “Fuck off.”

BREAKING: Senator Josh Hawley, who ran from the US Capitol for his life during the Jan 6th insurrection, decided to ask Merrick Garland if the DOJ has ‘anti-Catholic bias’.
Pretending that one of the most widespread religious groups in the US, the same religion that Biden…
Charles Robert Lee (@CharlesRLee83) tweeted at 5:38 PM on Wed, Mar 01, 2023:
Garland is Jewish, and Hawley knows this (the same dude who ran like a bitch during the insurrection that HE participated in). What he’s doing is throwing red meat to his Neo Nazi MAGA base, or as he calls them, “his voters.”
Truly a two-faced coward to the end.
The details of this bill are so odious.

It disproportionately benefits white families, bc only for homeowners. 69% of TX homebuyers are white non-Latinx; 40% of all Texans are.
The bill sponsor described it as TX saying to couples “get married, stay married, & be fruitful & multiply.” Subtext: white, straight couples.
“You vote for the former President who undid the safety rules.”
Well, one of many things the Republicans don’t have is long term memory.
And they hope the rest of us don’t either.
Just keep connecting the dots and make them squirm and lie some more. After Trump, that’s all they’ve got left are their lies. They haven’t a shred of credibility left as a political party.
Good Morning, Everyone😊😊😊
