‼️ Friends, this is very important. Please share to whoever this may concern, especially if you are in the United States.

Ukraine wants peace. Lasting, just, sustainable peace, and not a pause before the next bloodbath. I cannot stress this enough.

Nothing on NYT front page about Trump calling for Democrats to be executed.

Nothing on CBS News front page. ABC News. CNN. NBC News.

We found that Donald Trump has granted clemency in at least a dozen criminal cases that originated during his first term.

No president since Clinton has used clemency to erase his own appointees’ actions on such a scale.

Every single news story about Trump hosting MBS at the WH today should include the tremendously lucrative business deals the Saudis have done this year with Trump Org to enrich Trump and his family personally, which is the primary reason why this is happening.

1. Trump is in the process of sending millions in taxpayer money directly to his political allies — and himself.

The money purportedly is to settle legal claims.

But these claims are extraordinarily weak and have little to no chance of success.

In reality, it is a brazen theft.

NEW: Using his clemency power, Trump has undone prosecutions made by his own DOJ during his first term.

Experts say the actions show a broad contempt for the justice system: “He’s rejecting ... the work of people he appointed but didn’t fully control.”

He also claimed he's built many many ballrooms and "This will be one of the greatest ballrooms in the world.”

Who uses SNAP?

My friend, who works, raising 5 kids, husband bailed and won’t pay child support

My neighbor battling cancer and her life-saving meds are so expensive, she chooses between meds or food

My friend who’s a vet and struggles with mental health issues.

Not one of them chose this.

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this. Please jump on the phone today, call them, and share this widely.

Democrats asked for ONE THING today to reopen the govt: Keep health insurance subsidies where they are at now for one year. That is IT. Nothing else.

Republicans said no.

So all the lies they tell every day about things Dems are asking for is BS.
Republicans OWN this shutdown.
