Trump just said some federal employees “don’t deserve to be taken care of.” That’s not leadership, it’s cruelty.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans are working or waiting without pay, and the president seems proud of it.
We need a leader who reopens government, not one who weaponizes it.

It’s been this way since Obama was elected president and Republicans led by Mitch McConnell started openly cheating and bragging about it.
It's been two weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected and Mike Johnson has still refused to seat her, unlike in past cases where he swore in new members within 24 hours.

Another headline-grabbing distraction. By sending troops, DJT shifts attention away, AGAIN, from the financial and operational investigations that could expose powerful people and institutions connected to Epstein. It's not just a distraction — it’s a message.
