@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialWith Trump’s latest betrayal of Ukraine, MAGA Republicans who continue to defend Trump when he licks Putin’s balls can all go fuck themselves. Trump is a feckless, pathetic traitor — and he has the blood of innocent Ukrainian children on his hands.
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialThanks to Trump and the Republicans, healthcare premiums jumped after enhanced ACA subsidies expired and Medicaid eligibility checks resumed.
Even more painful program changes will be phased in later.
Rural hospitals are cutting services.
Americans are feeling it now.
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialMy latest podcast travels to California in 1978, where five friends drove to a college basketball game, began the trip home... yet never arrived. Their car was abandoned on a remote mountain road. Months later, four of them were found dead under strange circumstances—the fifth would never be found.
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialTrump keeps getting richer while families can’t afford gas, groceries, housing or healthcare.
Republicans have done nothing to lower prices.
None of them give a damn about everyday Americans — they just care about keeping their wealthy donors happy.
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialIn just 50 days, we have a chance to reject Trump’s chaos, corruption, and extremism — and elect leaders who will actually fight for working families, protect our freedoms, and defend democracy.
Let’s make it count. Organize, register, donate, and vote. 💙
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialMy family’s pet cockatiel, Nibbles, just passed away. She adopted us back in 2001, when she appeared in our driveway, hungry and scared. She hopped onto my extended arm, and has been a member of our family ever since. Nibbles was at least 30 years old — an extraordinarily long life for a cockatiel!
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.social⛽️ Over the past two weeks, gas prices in my Orlando neighborhood rose by 33–35 cents per gallon, or about 9%. Diesel fuel went up 75–80 cents, or about 14%. This gas station has the CHEAPEST prices I’ve found around here. Other stations have prices 5 cents or more higher! 🤬

Kicking the sick off their healthcare to give tax cuts to billionaires. Bombing innocent schoolchildren in Iran, and sending our brave men and women off to die in another forever war."

@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialJames Talarico calls out Ken Paxton for repeatedly refusing to debate him. Paxton is so corrupt — and such a coward! 👀 PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE.
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.social🔥 President Obama will be a tremendous asset on the campaign trail for Democrats this midterm election cycle. The former president excites crowds, motivates voters, raises money, and helps win close races. Watch the clip. 👀
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.social🎙️ My podcast today travels to Adelaide, Australia, where, on a summer day in 1966, three young siblings left home for what should have been an ordinary trip to the beach—and simply vanished. Their disappearance shocked an entire nation. Over six decades later, the Beaumont children remain missing. 🔎
@joncooper-us.bsky.socialReposted by @robertcooper-us.bsky.socialTrump and his family have raked in billions off the presidency — crypto deals, a $400M Qatari jet, tax immunity, and Pentagon contracts steered to his sons.
You get higher grocery, gas, and healthcare bills.
And Republicans in Congress don’t care.
That’s the #CostOfCorruption.
