Beginning Nov 1, Trump announced he will cut off food assistance for 3m New Yorkers.
He’s starving our communities all to punish Democrats for protecting affordable health care.

Just today, we saw evidence the president sent a lewd drawing with a deeply creepy birthday message to a notorious sex trafficker AND an appeals court upheld an $83 million judgement against him from a woman who a separate court found he sexually abused. And Republicans fully support this man.

Because what Trump has drawn here are the breasts of an underage girl.
And I think everyone sees that—whether they’re willing to say it or not.
I am. I fully understand the relationship Trump and Epstein had for 17 years, and fully understand what Trump is conveying to his co-conspirator here.
