Americans can’t afford to buy their own home in Donald Trump’s housing market.

Last night, Trump said Iran’s nuclear program was “completely and totally obliterated.”
This morning, JD Vance says we will “permanently dismantle that nuclear program over the coming years.”
Which is it? Sounds like more endless war against the will of the American people.

This is horrific. Violence is not the way to resolution or progress. To all those protesting today and especially those in Minnesota where the killer has been said to be targeting protestors, please be safe.

They’re not banning books because they’re dangerous—They’re banning them because they expose the truth.
📚 Erased tells the history they tried to bury—& now they’re coming for it. If it’s “too dangerous to teach,” you need to read it.
