Let’s be clear: the administration is choosing not to tap emergency funds available to provide critical food assistance for families in need.
Their own shutdown plan — which they recently deleted — confirmed they could. Read it for yourself:

He finally got his revenge against the man who asked him if he was up past his jail time.
Now it's up to us to ask why he's terrified to release #TheEPSTEIN_PedoFiles.

Horrific to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot today in Utah. Political violence must be always and totally rejected. Praying for him and all who may have been injured or impacted.

Senator Blackburn and I held a hearing with whistleblowers exposing how Meta ignored child safety. Instead of fixing problems that led to exploitation, bullying, and even kids tragically dying by suicide they destroyed the research. Tech Giants must be held accountable.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

It’s simple: if your flight gets canceled, you should be compensated.
Trump revoking this rule would only make trips more expensive for travelers. Just another example of higher costs for Americans.

Question: Why are many people under the impression that Trump and the awful things he’s doing are popular, even though they’re not?
Answer: America is still a mostly free country where dissent against Trump’s dictatorial ambitions is widespread, but media keeps making it appear as if it’s not.

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.

I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.
