In 2025, the right utterly bathes in delusion. Rolls around gleefully in it like a pig in mud. Of course we’re still going to hear them cry about groceries. And of course they’re still going to blame those “evil democrats”.
Because, ironically, their feelings don’t care about facts.

Twice now with absolute control over the house senate and presidency with a majority on the Supreme Court, the GOP has passed budgets that both add trillions upon trillions of dollars in debt.
At the same time that they will drag us into the hole by 5 trillion dollars they cut meals on Wheels which cost only about $25 million dollars… In the name of saving money.
You know, 1/ 200,000th of the debt that they added?
0.0005%.
Imagine you’re married and your partner has racked up $50,000 in credit card debt over the last 10 years. And then tells you they just spent another $50,000 on a new credit card.
In addition to the $250,000 in credit card debt that you both are already in. Your household income is $150,000 a year.
“But don’t worry”, your partner says, “We can make up for that spending by saving 25 cents a year :)”
This same partner lectures you about “fiscal responsibility” every time you try to spend money on groceries, bills, and doctor visits.
At what point do you kick them out of the household, divorce them, and/or take away their credit cards?
At what point do we kick the GOP out of politics entirely because of their insane spending practices and utter lack of fiscal responsibility?!

They made such a big deal about the price of eggs. But we all know most of them weren’t eating eggs.

Groceries, the Constitution, morality, taxes…
And let’s tax everything!
