Trump’s USDA is threatening to withhold food stamp funding for 20 Democrat-controlled states if they don’t share recipients’ sensitive personal data.
Yes: Trump is weaponizing hunger against millions of Americans, including children, to score cheap political points.
The cruelty is endless.

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.
Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.
Pure, mindless, barbarism.

Regarding Trump's posts calling for Dems to be murdered (for pointing out a legal right no less) funny the same people bleating about Charlie Kirk 3 months ago and "turning down the violent rhetoric" are suddenly silent on the president calling for violence against his political enemies.

Designating Saudi Arabia a major non-NATO ally gives significant military benefits. Doing so moments after dismissing Khashoggi’s murder—and attacking the journalist and network who asked about it—shows how far Trump is willing to go to elevate those U.S. intelligence has tied to murder.
