No 75% premium increases. No lawlessness.

That’s what we are fighting for. The people will be with us. But only if we show strength.

Trump wants to stomp out dissent but I refuse to be silent. I’m canceling Hulu (owned by Disney, who also owns ABC) until ABC reinstates Jimmy Kimmel. #BoycottDisneyABC

Wasn’t Trump found liable for mortgage fraud? Seems like lying to lenders about the square footage of your apartment to get lower interest rates constitutes mortgage fraud.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.
