Oh yes!

Dear Folks from #Canada and everywhere else:

Please, do NOT make the same mistake too many #USA voters made last November (and in 2016)!

Learn from our bad example.

There’s a special place in hell for every #American who *would* have voted against #Trump, but couldn’t drag their lazy, worthless аsses to the polls—including the fatheads who stayed home to “send a message.”

“We should not have to prove our citizenship, […] We are the original people in this country, but we’re in a #scary time right now, and I don’t want any #American #Indian to get lost in the #system. [ICE] ‘lost’ children the last time they did this. They lost little brown children that will never be reunited with their parents. And that is horrible. […]”

They'd better get used to more of this if they keep prodding their enemies across Eurasia.
There's a reason the US is always reluctant to put their own boots on the ground in any conflict. The #American people do not have the stomach for large numbers of body bags returning home.
Washington is very casualty averse and has become a master of convincing others to fight and die on their behalf.

No wonder #Trump failed his businesses, he has no idea how anything works. If he didn't have his #billionaire mates pumping money into his account, he would be on the done by now.
He thinks all these #American companies make their products in the #US so he is "helping" them. In reality, most of them exploit third world countries, pay staff a dollar per day and charge exorbitant amounts of money for the privilege of using their brand names.

Everything will be more expensive in the US.

The Heard and McDonald Islands will no longer take advantage of America. As of today a 10% reciprocal tariff on products from the volcanic territory between Madagascar and Antarctica is in effect. I know that American companies will now take over that market. Factories will be built. Jobs will be filled by Americans not illegal criminals who eat the cats and dogs. Isn’t America great yet? #inflation #maga #1stFelon #America #USA

The dollar is tanking. Prices are up. Stocks are down. Is America great yet? I’m not seeing it. Gas price went up 12 cents a gallon from yesterday here in the Midwest. Eggs are still high.
But at least there is a tariff on that Canada fentanyl. Gold prices are at record highs. We have that to be thankful for. I feel safer now that those Canadian drug dealers will sell elsewhere. Lol. #fentanyl #America #american #canada #canadian #tariff #inflation #drugs #1stFelon #felon #president

"#History is powerful, and there’s no better evidence than the attempt to erase it.

As a #historian and as CEO of the #Jewish #Women’s Archive, I’ve staked my career on a theory of change that insists that the stories we tell about the past and the present determine our futures. That’s why I am alarmed — but not surprised — that the #Trump administration has made it a priority to wipe mentions of women, #trans people and #peopleofcolor from sites that celebrate their contributions to #American history and society."

"Love Hangover" is a song by the #American singer #DianaRoss, recorded in 1975 and released as a single on March 16, 1976. It rose to number one on the #Billboard Hot 100 and #HotSellingSoulSingles. It also hit number one on the #RecordWorld #disco charts. Producer #HalDavis instructed the song's engineer #RussTerrana to install a #strobeLight so that Ross could be in the "disco" mindset. As the song changed from ballad to uptempo.
