What she said.

After storming out of an infrastructure meeting with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and other congressional Democrats, President Donald Trump took to the Rose Garden for a press conference.

Trump railed against the multiple investigations into him and his administration, also targeting the reporters present for covering the investigations. Trump then asserted that, as long as there are investigations against him, he will not work with Democrats on infrastructure funding:


"I walked into the room and I told Senator Schumer and House Speaker Pelosi, 'I want to do infrastructure, I want to do more than you want to do it, but, you know what? You can't do it under these conditions, get these phony investigations over with.'"

As Trump stormed out of the meeting, Pelosi reportedly said:

"I knew the president was not serious about infrastructure and would find a way out."

the president's refusal to work with Democrats to secure $2 trillion in funding for the nation's infrastructure projects while under investigation left many flabbergasted. Nevertheless, Trump doubled down on Twitter.

Despite Trump's claims, it's completely possible—and required by the oath of office—for a president to remain productive even when under investigation.

Others were quick to point this out, using former Democratic President Bill Clinton as an example.

Others were unsettled by the disturbing ultimatum.

Make it work, Donald.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
