The classless, trailer trash head of DHS, Kristi Noem, just wasted $172M on two used Gulfstream corporate luxury jets. The money appears to be "stolen" from the US Coast Guard's budget.
Trunp's trash believes the taxpayer is a dupe ripe for picking when it comes to spending taxpayer dollars!

So proud of Chicago for turning out 250,000 strong to let Trump know how we feel about his terror campaign against our city. Incredible crowd and like in other big cities, it was peaceful with no arrests. #NoKings

Throngs descend on Loop as part of 'No Kings' nationwide protests against Trump policies
After a massive rally in Grant Park, people took to downtown streets to show opposition to efforts including the deportation campaign that’s deployed federal agents and troops to the Chicago area.

When this nightmare ends, Abbott needs to be near the top of the list for treason trials. In fact, let's just plan on reconstruction part 2 for Texas and try to root out the corruption and dumbfuckery of the fascists

Of COURSE he does. This is textbook intimidation, and it's just another indication of how fascists fear "We The People" standing up against their abuses, corruption, and criminality.

Abbott orders the Texas National Guard to Austin ahead of ‘No Kings’ protest

The governor called the planned protest an “antifa-linked demonstration.” Nearly 100 events will take place over the weekend throughout the Lone Star State.

If only we could have predicted this..... and imagine, a former political party stayed loyal to the US instead of their deep hatred and racism and told the #orangeturd to fuck off. Instead, in a few months, America destroyed.
