Hmmm… what does this remind me of? Hmmm… The names Hegseth, Loomer, Bondi, RFKJr, Witkoff, Zeldin, Pirro… come to mind…

Trump will spend his weekend promoting a new golf course at his resort in Scotland – costing taxpayers an estimated $10 million.
After this jaunt, he will have spent at least $52 million of taxpayer money on golf trips.
If that’s not fraud, waste, and abuse, I don’t know what is.

I know I'm not the first person or even the millionth person to point this out; it's not even the first time *I* have said it, but this is what actual First Amendment violations look like and the fact that none of the supposed free speech warriors are saying anything about it tells us everything.

Something I am thinking about right now is that a 3 million dollar program that allows abused women to take their pets with them to domestic violence shelters is about to be cut because “we don’t have the money” but the government is about to spend 1000000000x more than that to bomb people

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
