During the shutdown, Trump could find $40 billion to bail out Argentina & $300 million for a ballroom to host dinner parties with billionaires, but he won’t tap emergency funds to prevent millions of American kids from going hungry?
How cruel is that?

Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country.
Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine.
Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.

Every time something happens, I go look it up in Project 2025, and sure enough there it is. Only difference is, in Project 2025 they said they'd do most of this through Congress.

Trump said he wants to “clean out” Gaza and push the millions of Palestinians living there into neighboring countries.
There is a name for this — ethnic cleansing — and it’s a war crime.
This outrageous idea should be condemned by every American.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)
