People who entered the US legally and have no criminal charges are being held in the Everglades camp, according to records obtained by the Miami Herald. Maybe that’s why the government won’t release the names of those being detained. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

A new study estimates that USAID saved 92 million lives from 2001 to 2021, and that its demolition could kill 14 million people in only five years through 2030.

That would make the end of USAID by far the most impactful action Trump has taken this year. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
USAID cuts could lead to 14 million deaths over the next five years, researchers say
An analysis published Monday in the medical journal The Lancet projects that cuts to the agency will lead to more deaths from diseases like AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.

"The Trump administration has suspended foreign aid to Congo and the resettlement of [Congo] refugees ... thus abandoning countless victims of the very same real-life humanitarian catastrophe that he’s cherry-picking imagery from to portray an atrocity against whites that isn’t actually happening.”
Trump used a pic of war deaths in Democratic Republic of Congo to push lie of South African white "genocide."

But it gets worse. He's slashed refugee resettlement from DRC while using corpses from that war as "evidence" of fake atrocities against whites!

Trump’s Lie About Dead “White Farmers” Just Got Even More Grotesque
That photo he brandished to Cyril Ramaphosa was from the Democratic Republic of Congo—whose refugees the Trump administration is pointedly not welcoming to America.

Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick's single vote could have stopped Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” that will slash Medicaid & SNAP benefits spending by almost $1 trillion. Instead, the self-described moderate fell in line and voted for a budget that will take food and health care away from millions of Americans.

Not just trampling - last time he wanted his Pyongyang parade he was blocked cause the war machines would chew the pavement off the roads and cost until damages - nothing’s changed except that he just raided cancer research for kids funding etc to pay for his own pageant of shittiness.
Constitution Avenue has been selected as the main route for Trump’s Jun. 14 military parade, so for once “trampling on Constitution” will be more than a metaphor for him.
Here's what we know about Trump's June 14 D.C. military parade
From the route to the music, permit applications give us a glimpse into the spectacle.

A fired HHS worker asks a senator about layoffs that are hurting services for “people with disabilities” and asks what he’ll do to help them.

Once the senator is safely behind his staff in the elevator, he ignores the suffering & replies that the worker is a “clown” who “deserved” to be fired.
NEW — This AM former HHS staffers confronted Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) about slashing budgets and staff, per video shared with me by Mack Schroeder, a former Budget Analyst for the Office of the Secretary. 

Banks tells Schroeder he "probably deserved" to lose his job "because you seem like a clown."
