WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

In-depth interview with Greta about the violent mistreatment in Israeli prisons, which is likely much worse for Palestinians, as she continually points out, and the inadequate response from the Swedish government.
Aftonbladet's interview with Greta Thunberg is now available in English - it raises many serious questions, not least about the Swedish govt. effectively abandoning its citizens to torture because it doesn't agree with their politics. A thundering disgrace.

This is utterly horrifying. At the same time, we've had a national GOP that has implied these things, without saying them outright, for decades. That has done every hateful thing possible to every minority group, to make us second class citizens. This is what happens next, in their worldview.
One of the craziest stories I've seen in a long time. If you think Trump and his administration are extreme and depraved, just wait until you learn about the young guns who are positioning themselves to take over the reigns in the next few decades
