I’m sure the people who were *pissed* that Hunter Biden sold paintings are equally furious about Barron Trump reportedly being tapped for the TikTok board.

Right?

Major airports refuse to air Kristi Noem video blaming Democrats for shutdown

Airport spokespeople say the decision was made because the message blaming Democrats for the government shutdown violates the Hatch Act.

Watch this quick explainer on the Hatch Act and you’ll see just how far the regime has gone—propaganda in airports, partisan emails, and political orders from the top. It’s not “messaging,” it’s a full-blown assault on the law that keeps our government nonpartisan.

Stevens: There’s $1.3 trillion of credit card debt. There are people putting grocery bills on credit cards and then paying interest on them. We are in an affordability crisis. Coffee is up 20%, beef is up 16%, bacon is up over 10%. And now we’re going to see health care costs skyrocket.

Dallas Fort Worth Airport is refusing to air Kristi Noem’s propaganda video—because it’s illegal. All airports must follow suit and reject this misuse of public space. No platform for propaganda. No exceptions.

Love Field, DFW Airport won't show video blaming Democrats for government shutdown

North Texas' two largest airports say the video, in which Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem says Democrats "refuse to fund the federal government," goes against their advertising policy.

Trump says he just really likes their philosophy and will only send the $20 Billion if his pal Milei wins.

Elections aren’t every 4 years or every 2 years, they’re every year. In California we have a special election for prop 50 and it’s a YES. If Texas can gerrymander then we should be able to. I know my comments will be filled with bots, but I won’t be intimidated. Our democracy is vanishing❤️
