Trump and his family pocketed BILLIONS in cash, gifts, loans, and other benefits directly linked to his presidency but can't understand why someone who isn't getting paid is looking for a second job to put food on the table when he shuts down the government.
What a cruel mofo.🤬

What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.
This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.
