The Easter holiday weekend.

The job's not done – that's why I’m taking on health care and housing costs, junk fees, and corporate greed.
But this is real progress.

MSNBC: Democrats and Biden have opened three dozen offices in Wisconsin. Republicans have opened zero. They don't have the money for it. Republicans are getting nervous because Trump is not out there, contrasted with Biden who has been out on the road pic.twitter.com/vYe6TLHnoe

Random tweets.
When you hear. . .
When you hear Trump pronounced a saint for going to a policeman’s wake.
140 police officers were injured by Trump’s mob on J6.

Why has Trump never praised them for their service?
Why didn’t he call any of them or their families?
Why didn’t he visit them in the hospital?
Why is he promising pardons to the people who beat and injured them?

Just a reminder to all my former Republican colleagues: You can no longer call yourselves the party of “law & order.” You lost that claim when you made Donald Trump your dear leader.

If Trump really supported the police, he wouldn't be promising to pardon the violent criminals who attacked the Capitol Police on January 6, injuring more than 140 of them and contributing to the deaths of five.

Don't ever tell me again the GOP is the party of "law and order." pic.twitter.com/DTa5uICJR0
When you hear MAGA voices saying America shouldn’t find money to repair Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge.
Our country put its arms around Florida when the Sunshine Skyway Bridge collapsed in 1980. America rallied around Minnesota after the I-35W Mississippi River bridge collapse in 2007.

This will be a long and difficult path for Baltimore. But we will rebuild together.
When you need a reminder of why we should be grateful each day that Joe Biden is President, this one 👇 might do.
Four years ago today, as Americans were dying and jobless, Trump tweeted about how high the ratings were for his disastrous press briefings, tweeting they were “roughly the viewership of the season finale of The Bachelor" pic.twitter.com/KWEnR3zCtL

This was Trump yesterday.
Trump Posts Image of Joe Biden Kidnapped And Bound With Rope.
On Truth Social, Trump posted a video of Trump themed vehicles driving in New York. One of the trucks has an image of Joe Biden on the back bound with rope,.
Some MAGA Republicans have been displaying this graphic depicting President Joe Biden bound with rope and laying in the bed of a pickup truck apparently kidnapped. Trump is now encouraging such imagery.
Trump loves using violent language like bloodbath and continues to encourage this sort of rhetoric and imagery.
Imagine if Biden has posted something like this of Trump. (Meidas Touch).
This is what the monster just posted. A realistic picture of President Biden tied up helpless in the back of a van with Trump’s gloating mug in front of the scene. He’s threatening the president’s life. That’s a felony. If anyone else did it, the feds would arrest him. What now? https://t.co/MjuIti9BqL
