I spent the day at the ICE Detention centers where Rümeysa Öztürk and Mahmoud Khalil are being unjustly detained. They've been taken thousands of miles away from home and denied due process.
I’m here to call for their immediate release and make it known that they haven’t been forgotten.

Everybody looked around and realized even though the tariffs may be temporarily paused, Trump is still stupid.

Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country.
All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

Dictator Donald revoked the security clearances of Biden, Harris, Clinton, and others in a sweeping act of political revenge, targeting anyone who’s dared to oppose him. Even CNN asked: is there any purpose besides spite? No.

Dictator Donald’s police state is crushing U.S. tourism. Foreigners are being detained, shackled, and deported despite valid visas. Allies like Germany, the UK, and Canada now warn citizens about traveling here. Tourism is down $64B. America is no longer the land of the free—it’s a trap.

One in five Americans are boycotting companies tied to Dictator Donald’s fascist agenda. Tesla, Amazon, Target—all bleeding customers after caving to anti-DEI pressure. Gen Z, Black, and Hispanic voters are leading the charge. Corporate cowardice has a price.

Trump is Putins asset, puppet & lapdog. He’s been working for Russia & the Kremlin for years probably decades. Trump is weak & a coward. He speaks with his boss weekly to report into Russia. Putin is eating the old fat orange FELON for lunch & dinner. Putin owns trump and he has for a long time.

Zelenskyy might have gotten hollered at, but he obviously rattled Trump. And I love it. Yes, it's embarrassing that the man leading our country had a total meltdown when meeting with another world leader, but showcasing just how deranged he is is always a good thing.

Ultimately, he knows the world respects President Zelenskyy and despises him.
Funny thing is, he's quite capable of attaining all the adulation he so desperately wants. All he has to do is behave like a world leader. He can't figure that out.

He didn’t cave to Putin and he’s surely not going to cave to these two wet turds! He’s strategic and smart. Hopefully this will be the tipping point for NATO and full Euro support of Zelenskyy/ Ukraine!

The saddest part is that all your mainstream media will make excuses for this. Not one Republican will feel shame at this behaviour coming from an American president. Trump is giving Putin power at the expense of Americans and the world. America what have you become?
