Remember: Trump promised for all of these costs to go down. He promised to improve healthcare and he promised transparency.

STOP CUTTING MEDICAID!

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!

Half of America’s Voting Machines Now Owned by a MAGA Oligarch

They told us elections were rigged. Then they cloned stolen voting software. Then they bought the voting machines.
