A good moment to remember the Russia thing was always real. Trump's goal is to help Russia and Putin, always has been. He's trying to throw our democratic allies under the bus and America as well. Again, the Russia thing was always real.

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

Trump & Musk are trying to fire 100,000+ civil servants right now - including over 1,000 VA employees.
Purges are happening at SBA, Energy, Education & more.
Firing this many critical employees at once could make it impossible for our government to provide BASIC services.

If Trump doesn't reverse course, millions could lose healthcare, food assistance, childcare, and even emergency services.
We've heard reports of Medicaid portals being shut down and childcare funds being frozen. Trump is steering the US into a disaster of his own making.
