“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.
We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

This is from a twitter post from 2018 by Rep. Rick Larsen, is what I found when I searched this image.
Apparently it was a parade in DC.
If we can't get our wish and he *does* get his ego-stroking parade, I hope it is even emptier of onlookers than what we see here.

Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one.
All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

An American President is going to turn a foreign luxury plane from Qatar into Air Force One. And then he’s going to keep the $400 million gift after he leaves office. It’s a disgrace to our country and a potential national security risk. Our Oversight Committee must investigate.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
