Haha 😂 Trump holds up images from a conflict in the Congo to justify importing white South Africans, claiming there’s “genocide.” Never mind that the photos aren’t even from South Africa and some of these migrants are openly posting antisemitic content online.

I’m going to continue reminding folks that this is the kind of thing that warrants impeachment. (Not for nothing but Republicans impeached Mayorkas for just existing)
Q: “Have you been in touch with El Salvador about returning Abrego Garcia? Has a formal request from this administration been made?”
Rubio: “I would never tell you that. And you know who else I'd never tell? A judge.”

Also how does the head of Homeland Security get her purse stolen? That doesn't seem possible. Her security detail must hate her.

UPDATE: At least 3 are dead after a helicopter crashed into the Hudson River.
5 people were reportedly onboard including children.
This is what happens when an arrogant POS “president” freezes flight control hiring on day 1 — air travel becomes less safe & people die
We are not safe under Trump!

I spoke to a South Carolina woman today who is miscarrying - her fetus has no heartbeat - but the state's ban is preventing doctors from taking action.
She has to walk around with a dead fetus for another week so she can get a FOURTH ultrasound.
This is what bans do.

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.
