Trump is cutting funding that helps end homelessness.

And now, over 170,000 people are at risk of being pushed out of homes and back onto the streets.

We’re in a housing crisis.

The solution isn’t kicking people out of their homes – it’s building more housing.

The Pedo-Protector Prez ordered a brand new distraction & the Dept. of War (actually the Dept. of Defense: a mini-distraction within a distraction, no extra charge!) is delivering by expanding our ongoing unlawful policy of randomly bombing the tiny boats of fishermen with no due process whatsoever.

The DOT also reportedly plans to rescind requirements that airlines disclose junk fees. It's also planning to redefine what flight cancellations would require refunds for passengers.

Both Delta and United gave $1 million to the Trump inauguration fund.

Everything is for sale.

Everyday Americans get nickel and dimed while the rich dodge taxes.

They struggle to get by while the wealth of the 1% skyrockets.

They see their voices drowned out while the well-connected avoid accountability.

There are two sets of rules in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:

✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.

Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.

But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.

Every piece of data that comes out shows Trump’s policies are hurting our economy and killing jobs. With him in charge, Americans are paying more, losing health care, and getting laid off. That’s his legacy.

There was always something inexplicably strange about the recent government shutdown. From the beginning, it was crystal clear what Democrats wanted: lower health care costs, affordability and for a lawless president to start obeying the law.

But what about the Republicans?

Republicans have never let the filibuster stop them from doing something they actually wanted to do.

E.g., nationwide abortion ban: it's not because the GOP likes playing fair, it's because some Republican Senators promised they wouldn't do that and don't want to be forced to vote yes/no on one.
