Watching the FireAid concerts for the LA fires , I was struck by how many Canadians took the stage in support. And I’ll never forget those yellow Canadian Super Scooper planes saving the day.

This is a constitutional crisis: the President doesn't have the power to cancel funds appropriated by Congress. Also, the math is insane; there is NO way to cut $4B/day by getting rid of "fraud". Cuts of that magnitude will dangerously undermine the core functions of government.

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

Privatization of everything.
REPORTER: With your efforts to reduce the federal workforce, are there any concerns about protecting the public?
TRUMP: Everybody is replaceable. We want them to go to into the private sector. It's our dream to have everybody almost working in the private sector.
