While 750,000 federal workers go unpaid and moms lose WIC, Trump’s out cheating at golf—on our dime. Families are rationing formula while he’s working on his handicap.

The only thing he’s leading in is hypocrisy. ⛳️

It’s been 21 days since Adelita Grijalva won her election, yet Mike Johnson still hasn’t sworn her in.

Why? Because she said she would be the 218th signature on the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Her constituents deserve a voice in Congress. Swear her in NOW.

Let's be realistic.
He wants you dead or otherwise gone, and take your possessions and your house, which he will rent out to people willing to pay a lot of money to get US citizenship.
Maybe their skin color matters to him. But yours doesn't.
