Farmers experienced billions in losses because of Trump's trade war. Two months of promises and what did the Trump administration deliver?

Vague assurances and far less help than Argentina received.

This isn't supporting American agriculture.

Stephen Miller is employing state terror in service of the open goal of shifting the ethnic mix of the country. In numerous ways he's doing this at the expense of public safety.

This holiday season, give a moment of thought for the immigrant with prosthetics who is being tortured by #ICELawlessness & being denied essential rights & medical treatment or the 60,000 families ripped apart by deportations.

No American president has ever named ships or institutions after himself—until now. Trump’s gold-plated presidency isn’t about strength. It’s about fear, ego, and unmistakable ignorance.

And the lies just keep rolling out. Now claiming a “million more documents” have suddenly been discovered, the DOJ warns it’ll take weeks to turn over everything.

I connect the document dots & track the lies back to Jan of 2025, proving the obstruction is the point.
