Trump said he wants to “clean out” Gaza and push the millions of Palestinians living there into neighboring countries.
There is a name for this — ethnic cleansing — and it’s a war crime.
This outrageous idea should be condemned by every American.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Putin can’t believe his luck. Here is Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov on Trump: “The new administration is fast changing all foreign policy configurations…This coincides with our vision in many ways.”
Trump now backs dictatorship, not democracy. We cannot allow that to stand.

Did Trump just say he will put tariffs on medications?
Americans already pay more for prescription medications than anywhere in the world - and he wants us to pay EVEN MORE?
Americans want cheaper drug prices. Trump is giving us higher taxes instead.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.
