Democratic lawmakers are introducing a bill that would put new restrictions on donations to Trump's ballroom.
Right now, billionaires & corporations are dumping MILLIONS into the ballroom project.
This new bill would put a stop to what looks like a corrupt pay-to-play scheme.

Many VA employees are veterans themselves. Canceling their union contracts is not only insulting to their service, but it’s going to make the quality of care for our veterans worse.
These men and women made incredible sacrifices for our country. This is not how we repay them.

The VA terminating the union contracts of their workers is an ambush on the people who care for our veterans. The Trump admin may think they can silence anyone who pushes back against their unlawful and anti-worker actions, but we aren’t going anywhere. aflcio.org/press/releas...

I've been trying to identify other ways that I can control what little I can during the Trump admin. So besides reading a ton and becoming well informed on RONR, I'm going to the gym 6x week. People don't take me seriously because I'm 5'4. Time to get ripped to prove to them that I'm no child.

Have you guys noticed that Trump still hasn’t even mentioned the storms in Kentucky that killed at least 30 people? Republicans are pretty quiet about the lack of response too.

We are now in a crisis. Trump won't follow SCOTUS's order. Trump was caught on a hot mic saying he wants to expatriate US Citizen 'criminals' to El Salvador next. Logically, he'll begin expatriating anyone who he disagrees with, w/o due process. That means anyone can be black holed. This is Fascism.
El Salvador's president says he won't return mistakenly deported man to U.S.
The Trump administration now claims Kilmar Abrego Garcia wasn’t deported by mistake, as the Justice Department said, but was “the right person sent to the right place.”
