Trump: As a little boy I'd be sitting there playing with blocks, I guess. I build better than anybody else, nobody can build like me, you can ask Steve Witkoff. My dad would build a floor out of tile, they used to call it Linoleum at the time.

A chilling creepy statement from a man without a clue. Trump Babies????? Thanks Oprah for unleashing this idiot on society.
"We've dropped infertility drugs to make lots of trump babies. I'm hoping by the midterms".......aside from the obvious creepiness, the gop have chosen to not use contingency funds for SNAP when 15 million babies & children rely on SNAP to not starve.

It's been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

This is horrifying. #children #trauma
Children shouldn't be afraid of going to school and never seeing their parents again. ICE is traumatizing families.

If I were a voter from AZ I’d be pretty pissed at this little weasel. Alas I’m one from MA. Still pretty pissed though.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

She's a lying tool, but I can't get past the first FIVE words of this quote: "There ARE no American citizens WHO...." #grammar #moron #idiot #liar
Kristi Noem: “There's no American citizens that have been arrested or detained. We focus on those that are here illegally. And anything that you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting.”

Johnson: Snap benefits is a unique situation. I got a summary of the legal analysis…the contingency funds are not legally available to cover the benefits right now

Horse manure! You can love a third term all you wish Mr tRump - still unconstitutional (so far). #stoptheinsanity #releasetheepsteinfiles
President Trump said he had an MRI earlier this month, telling reporters Monday that the results had been “perfect” but declining to say why his doctors had ordered the scan. He also reiterated that he was interested in serving a third term.
Trump Says a Recent M.R.I. Scan Was ‘Perfect,’ and He’d ‘Love’ a Third Term
President Trump made the comments on the second day of his trip to Asia. The Constitution limits presidents to two terms, but Mr. Trump has suggested he might try to circumvent it.

So, fun fact: I taught in a parochial school for 10 years. I taught religion every day to 7- and 8-yo children. It was one of the ways my (normally quiet) beliefs manifested themselves. Later I chose to teach schools with higher poverty rates & saw the impact of food insecurity up close.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Has anyone ever attempted to figure out how many dollars we’ve paid Congress to do absolutely nothing in the 21st century, including their salaries, expenses, benefits, and pensions?

EXACTLY!!!!!
This is quite a hed/subhed.
1) Start with Vance. Use strong action verb. Accept the autocratic premise that the “Marines’ Might” are Vance’s to flex.
2) Mention the protest second and absurdly describe them as in the thousands
3) Treat Trump’s strong man use of the military as a partisan scuffle.

Well JD, here in New England, we like to read before believing the claptrap you all are spouting.
Setting aside the fact that in 4 GOP majority states (NV, IA, MT, UT) Dems have 0 Reps despite voting 40% Dem, New England has a district Trump won by 9 and 2 toss-up districts, and Republicans lost all 3 because they ran terrible full MAGA candidates like Karoline Leavitt in NH.
