No matter what’s happening Democrats cannot avoid TDS. I love that Progressive commercial (well, I love them all, one of the best ad campaigns of all time) which ends with “you’re watching TV, not supervising it. Sit down and relax.” Democrats cannot relax.” It’s TDS 24/7
Washington Halloween displays show scariest thing for Democrats is Trump
In some neighborhoods of heavily Democratic Washington, Halloween displays with a decidedly political tone have long been a tradition.
But ahead of Halloween on Friday – 10 months into Donald Trump’s second White House term driven by a conservative policy blitz most Democrats oppose – some residents are using the holiday to protest his policies with anti-Trump yard displays.
In a front yard close to the U.S. Capitol, Donna Breslin, 79, has installed an entire graveyard with 16 headstones to mark policy moves the Republican Trump has made since he took office in January that she says are killing off American democracy.
There are headstones – purchased on Amazon and hand-painted by Breslin – for “USAID,” and “research for health and science,” among others.
The Washington metropolitan area has borne the brunt of Trump’s cuts. A government shutdown, now in its 30th day, has forced many more civil servants to be furloughed with each party blaming the other.
All they have to do is tell their Democrat Senators to vote for a clean CR, as they had done 13 previous times.
Sadly, not a ton of photos, mostly of the same stuff. But, you know there is plenty more TDS in D.C.
One focus of this year’s Halloween displays is Trump’s health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has cut staff at the Department of Health and Human Services and promoted debunked claims that routine childhood vaccines cause harm.
In the wealthy, liberal Northwest Washington neighborhood of Georgetown, where Kennedy lives, there are multiple skeletons on display in front yards alongside vaccine-related messages.
A block from Kennedy’s house stands a giant 10-foot (3-meter)-tall skeleton next to a sign that reads, “Hi, I’m Wally! Vaccines save lives – believe me I know!”
Kennedy has restricted access to COVID-19 shots, boosted support for state vaccine exemptions, dismantled the vaccine review process, and expanded a national advisory board with like-minded critics of COVID shots.
The hardcore Democrats can still get their worthless 15th COVID booster, and then cry when they get COVID. Again.
They’re all wackadoodle. Just celebrate Halloween and relax.
Is it any surprise in a city full of federal government workers that they’d hate a President trying to get rid of some of them?
Lol
Most devise president EVAH!
20 MILLION KIDS NEED EBT
Total fed budget 9,800,000,000,000
Total subsidy ACA. 35,000,000,000
Trump and Republicans have shut the gov down by failing to compromise on that amount
Which math brainiac wants to tell Teach what percentage that equates to? Use a calculator if you need to or just round it off to 3/1000
Sorry Johnny boy-the Democrats have shut down the government by demanding illegal alien healthcare be funded by taxpayers. The Republican plan has always included funds for food stamps.
Jill typed, risibly: Democrats have shut down the government by demanding illegal alien healthcare be funded by taxpayers
Do you have credible evidence to support your claim??
We call “bullshit” on you.
You are lying.
We’ll await your next lie.
Fat jeff,
No, you are lying or confused. Why are the Dems not signing off on a CR, that they signed off on numerous times in the past. Because they are trying to overturn the big beautiful bill.
John,
It is a CR. If you desire to discuss financing, then pass the CR and debate the cost of the government in normal fashion. Did you quit college already?
Ouch!
I think the shutdown is great. A person I know that doesn’t have a job has a GF that uses her two kids for food stamps. She only works part time. All of a sudden he has to get a job and is working part time to put food on the table. Amazing what can happen when the government gets out of the way and out of my wallet. Let them whine all they want, the tic-tocs are fun to watch.

Having had a few Trump-Covid vaccine shots since 2020 and having one symptom-free Covid infection (only knew by testing before a trip), not an issue. On the other hand only just over 1.2 million Americans died from Covid thanks to Trump’s Covid vaccine program (Warp Speed)!!! Thank you President Trump!
A Commonwealth Fund study estimated the Trump-COVID vaccination efforts in the U.S. alone saved 3.2 million Americans (and maybe some “illegals”, boo!!)* from December 2020 to November 2022, along with 18 million associated hospitalizations averted.
So TDS-afflicted William downplays Donald Trump’s Nobel-prize worthy efforts in saving the lives of 3 million Americans!!
But in reality, because medical science supports vaccination, the MAGAsphere screams:
All vaccines are dangerous!!! Ask the Surgeon General of Florida. No right-thinking MAGAt shut be forced to accept ANY vaccine!!
Not Covid. Not flu. Not shingles, RSV, tetanus, hepatitis…
Do NOT allow these lib Nazis to make your kids or teenagers take: Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR), Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (DTaP), Polio, HPV, Meningococcus, Chickenpox and shingles vaccines.

* Congress should investigate how many “illegals” then-President Donald J. Trump saved with his highly-effective Operation Warp Speed which developed and distributed Covid vaccines in unheard of record time!!! Probably in the hundreds of thousands of “illegals” saved. Ouch.
People on EBT and SNAP should go door to door begging for food from their neighbors. It works so well every 31 Oct that even kids can do it.
