Proud to be a woke Dem. Here for the fight for truth, justice, and freedom.
Some day The White House and its social media will be run by serious, intelligent, and patriotic adults. Today is not that day. What an embarrassment.
State-sponsored dehumanization, wrapped in a Christmas bow.

NEW: Christopher Dawson won hundreds of millions in federal contracts, promising to help Native Hawaiians.
Documents suggest he pocketed the profits to invest in a beachfront horse farm and luxury homes.

He Spent Funds Meant for Native Hawaiians on Polo and Porsches. The Federal Government Failed to Stop Him.
A small business program allowed Christopher Dawson to win big contracts if he promised to uplift Native Hawaiians. Instead, federal prosecutors allege, he used the money to line his own pockets.

I would argue that Trump is the greatest threat to our economy, security, and ways of life. It's not immigrants, Muslims, people of color, women, trans people, or LGB people... It's Trump and those who share his warped and detached from reality point of view.

I didn't vote for Trump either time, not because he ran under the Republican banner, but because I knew what kind of man he was. He's proven me right in so many ways during his second term in office, it's sickening and demoralizing to see what he's done to our once proud nation. 🗽

There is no legitimate reason not to release the complete Sep. 2 video.
They released video of the first strike. What national security justification could there be for releasing video of the first part of the action but not the second? They wanted to cover up what happened after the first strike.
