Firing immigration judges that are so badly understaffed? Why? Because they somewhere in their career represented immigrants......brilliant...
Firing over 100 immigration judges.
Arresting immigrants outside of their immigration hearings.
Pausing asylum decisions.
And now? Cancelling citizenship ceremonies, the final step to becoming a U.S. citizen.
Just remember that Trump never cared about "legal immigration."

THIS is the brains behind the cutting of everything in the government that he deems "unnecessary". And there's a lot that he doesn't like....
Russell Vought’s dismantling of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is putting the public at risk in areas ranging from auto loans and digital payments to credit cards and credit reports.

This is why tariffs and trade wars suck...
The US tariff level is now the highest since the 1930s and about six times what it was when Trump took office.

That's the way it's been in EVERY Republican tax cut. The rich get the whole cake...the poor and working class get the crumbs. It never trickles down!
The rich have never been richer.
Meanwhile, many Americans are struggling to get by.
What are Trump and Republicans doing about it?
Passing more tax cuts predominantly for the wealthy while making devastating cuts to the social safety net.

Donald Trump is the ONLY person in the world who thinks #tariffs are a good idea. They screw the consumer (YOU) and cause inflation. We are ALREADY being hit by them (steel and aluminum products). But it will get worse on July 9th!

The many ways Ukraine carries out unprecedented drone attacks
With one surprise attack after another, Ukraine keeps inventing new ways to wage war with drones. In turn, Russia is building a massive drone army of its own.

Why the Big Bogus Bill is SO bad:
UPDATED based on yesterday's CBO score.
The House GOP bill cuts $1.3 trillion in health care & nutrition assistance while cutting $1.6 trillion in taxes from the top 5%.
This isn't shared sacrifice to address our fiscal trajectory--it's a direct transfer of wealth to the rich.

It’s so shockingly dumb—yes, even for him—that it’s hard to believe that we have a president of the United States who is this ignorant.
