If you vote @GOP and do not like being lied to, then wake up and smell the coffee people because here is #truth : 1) Politicians like @laurenboebert and @Jim_Jordan keep telling you Joe Biden controls gas prices. But they are up GLOBALLY, not just domestically.
2) The party u voted for because u believe in them has people like @SenTedCruz that is CONFIRMED to gone to Cancun when a winter storm left Texans exposed to the elements. People DIED to include a 10 year old. The politician seen MOST during that time? Democrat @BetoORourke
3) When #COVID19 reared its ugly head, the @GOP had a chance to show competence under Trump. Instead, they claimed it was like flu, would go away in a couple months, and told governors sounding the alarm to:
Look at all of this and remember something:
NOBODY is asking you to say you were wrong. We are asking you to notice you were lied to and hold them ACCOUNTABLE for lying to you. Take back your party. If they wont give u a GOOD candidate, make them pay at the polls! #VoteBlueIn2022

There are many issues that Republicans use as slogans when they run for office because they are too complicated for a Republican voter to understand. Donald Trump is proving every day the average GOP voter cannot handle complex issues. He made everything color by numbers. Like:
1) Donald Trump says you either love the police of hate the police.
Republicans come out in droves with the #BackTheBlue hashtag and amplify the #DefundThePolice hashtag. The issue? Not that simple. You CAN support police officers and demand an end to police corruption and abuse.
2) Donald Trump says the borders are wide open!
Forgetting the ludicrous "Mexico will pay for it" thing, the border is supported by BOTH parties. Trump wants areas that are already patrolled by the Border Patrol, covered by natural barriers, and owned by private citizens taken
Now that #MarjorieTaylorGreene is gone I want to post my poem #BreathlessRegret. A reminder I have seen the fear in the eyes of those she led to their deaths with her lies:
I will tell you the thing I will never forget.
Watching them die in breathless regret.
Clinging to sheets as if it contained their soul.
Begging the disease to please let them go.
Listening to science a moment too late.
Allowing the misinformed to determine their fate.
The oxygen fails, the body goes next.
We look on as they scream to God "not yet!"
The caregiver forever changes at the head of your bed.
From saving your life, to the hand on your head.
You imagined death in a room full of love.
But instead human touch comes from behind a glove.
I spend my work days trying to save the misinformed that end up in intensive care because Fox News, The GOP, and people like Greg Abbott put them there. How do I know? What do u think they watch on TV before they get so bad they end up upgraded to our ICU? My off days? I INFORM:
When an #unvaccinated individual comes into our unit, we all get filled with dread. We know where this is going, but we try our best not to show it. By the time they reach us, their oxygen requirement is already too high to go home. Many come in annoyed that we are "making such
a big deal" about it. We apologize (yes I actually say sorry...for HELPING...smh) and we keep working. At home, a person in need of oxygen can survive on an oxygen concentrator that maxes out between 5 and 10 liters per minute. Usually its 5. They can get an oxygen tank, but
Working the #Covid_19 ward again today. Patient dying on a ventilator. Young. Sad. The nurse tells me its a sad case because, when the pt could speak, they said they didnt know who to trust about the vaccine. Herein lies the problem, and the reason I am angry. MANY Americans
had already decided where they wanted to place their trust in political and societal terms. This trust was abused by people that are STILL in a position to take more lives with their words and actions, and we are doing NOTHING. As Edmund Burke said:
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do NOTHING." We are watching people die that THOUGHT they were making an informed choice because media organizations like Fox News and red state governors like DeSantis and Abbott told them THIS was the only way
I read an article by @bartongellman for @TheAtlantic about Trumps next coup attempt having already begun. The most significant part of this article, in my opinion, should be on everyone's mind now. What part is that? Ill tell you.
We have deluded ourselves into thinking the man with the horns is the example of the delusional Trump Supporter. As we saw with our own two eyes, even this person did not have any idea what he was getting into. We thought it was the Confederate Flag holding man. Not that either
What we are failing to see is highlighted in the article. The people happy to believe Donald Trump should be President and that his Presidency was stolen are doctors, nurses, CEO's etc. They are the people we expect to be logical and the people we expect to be intelligent.
When did things start to change in America? I'll show you the EXACT moment:
-Trump, then candidate for POTUS, had his lawyer pay off Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about his affairs. His thoughts were that the Christian, Family Values Republicans wouldn't vote for him if they found
out. He was wrong. They voted for him ANYWAY making him realize he could have saved money.
-A tape was released of Trump stating he would walk up to women, married or not, and touch them between their legs and kiss them. It was a bombshell because the Christian Family values GOP
couldn't POSSIBLY condone THIS right!? Wrong...again....they voted for him ANYWAY.
-Trump asks a foreign country to investigate his political rival and its all ON TAPE. THIS was the final str...NOPE. THE GOP said what he did was wrong but "didnt rise to the level of impeachment "
