Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

So, Republicans are now asserting that Pres Biden is corrupt because of his son's business dealings. At the same time, saying SCJs aren't corrupt even though they got expensive gifts, that they didn't declare, because those were just gifts from friends?
