President Trump has made $4 billion since his second inauguration. And now, he's suing the Treasury Department and IRS for $10 billion more in "damages."

So we're filing a brief urging the court to reject President Trump’s scheme and protect taxpayers.

Every president from Nixon on released their tax returns, but Trump -- who insisted he would follow that custom -- repeatedly refused to do that. So finally they were leaked, showing he paid only $750 in 2016 and nothing in 2017.

He's now demanding all of us, who *did* pay our full taxes, pay him.

TIME magazine just released its new cover focused on Minneapolis, calling it “The Siege of an American City.” More than 3,000 federal agents have been deployed in the city in what’s being described as the largest immigration enforcement operation in U.S. history.

Absolutely outrageous.

Please call your Senators at 202-224-3121 & tell them to vote NO on the GOP’s so-called “SAVE Act.”
😳 Musk’s “DOGE” overhauled the The Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (“SAVE”) program,” which Trump & MAGA want states to use to PURGE supposed noncitizens from the VOTER ROLLS under the GOP’s proposed “SAVE Act”.

Experts warn that “SAVE” isn’t accurate enough for this. WTH?!!! 1/

Caitlin Collins attempts to ask Trump what he would say to the Epstein survivors and he chastises her for being a young woman who doesn't feign sexual interest in him by pretending to flirt and smile.
