This is tragic for anyone suffering from Alzheimer's, or caring for a loved one afflicted with this horrible disease. What is Trump thinking? Does he not care? His concern is himself and his billionaire friends, not people who are coping with this awful disease. youtube.com/shorts/Tb-vh...

Trump’s shutdown doesn’t stop illegal immigrants from getting taxpayer-funded healthcare — because they already can’t. What it does stop? Alzheimer’s research that could save your loved one. 💔https://leantotheleft.net/trumps-shutdown-targets-alzheimers-research-while-spinning-immigration-lies/

The tragic death of Charlie Kirk is being exploited by Trump, Steve Bannon, Elon Musk, and others as a rallying cry for violence. Trump even wants to give Kirk the Medal of Freedom — a disgraceful move that demeans the honor.

Bob Gatty @bobgatty.bsky.social · Sep 11

The murder of Charlie Kirk is tragic—but before motives were even known, Utah’s governor called it “political assassination.” Meanwhile, Trump’s silence on attacks against Democrats exposes a chilling truth: outrage is selective.
