Some folks are cheering #Trump for a “200% cut” in drug prices.
People who understand math are laughing.
100% off = $0.
You can’t go below zero.
$100 drug:
50% → $50
100% → $0
200% → –$100 🤡
Unless the pharmacy pays you, it’s nonsense.
Trump is taking people for fools.

#Trump couldn’t even fake decency. After meeting Venezuelan democracy leader María Corina Machado, he kept her #NobelPeacePrize medal, a prize he didn’t earn but has obsessively coveted for years.
It can’t be transferred. Trump grabbing it anyway says everything about his ego.

#ICE agents' accountability under #Trump.
Miller says all ICE officers have federal immunity while doing their jobs. Anyone who tries to harm, stop, or obstruct you commits a felony. No city, state official, or illegal alien can stop you from carrying out your legal duties.

Coming To Your Neighborhood? #ICE agents reportedly broke into a #Minneapolis home with guns drawn and a battering ram without a legal court warrant. They showed an ICE #warrant, not a judicial warrant that legally authorizes forced entry — sparking outrage. ICE is running wild.

#Trump is interfering with the #DOJ investigation.
Trump wants the DOJ to focus on the #Minneapolis mother killed and those around her, not on the #ICE agent.
The first assistant U.S. attorney in Minneapolis and at least five other prosecutors resigned amid the DOJ pressure.

#Trump attacked Fed Chair #JeromePowell for months. #DOJ suddenly opens an investigation.
This isn’t about justice—it’s about bullying the Fed to cut rates for political gain.
Two weeks ago, Trump threatened to sue Powell.
Today, he claims he knows nothing.
Yeah. Sure.

Vance claims the ICE agent who killed a woman has “absolute immunity.” That’s intimidation, not law. #ICE agents don’t have blanket immunity, only narrow, case-by-case protections. But in #Trump’s world, loyalty beats accountability, and pardons clean it all up.
