JD's family has spent $35M on vacations.

Kash Patel used a $60M FBI jet to go on a date.

Trump spent $98M to golf for 24% of the days of this term.

ALL WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS.

But you think a single mom getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

Trump is a liar. Tear gassing kids in peaceful neighborhoods makes no one safer.

He cannot steal credit from our violence prevention and law enforcement efforts that have reduced crime for four years straight — long before his masked agents showed up. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
DHS takes credit for crime being down in Chicago. Data shows that was happening before they arrived.
Immigration officials on Tuesday said a drop in crime numbers was thanks to their work. Police data show the decrease was taking place before federal agents arrived in the city.

This concentration camp was opened at Fort Bliss, the site of a former Japanese internment camp.

It also cost over $1B in private contracts to build in a place meant to hold 1000 people. So, basically it’s a fascist grift.

Folks are getting carried away with calling stuff "ageism".

Thinking any 45 year old is unqualified to enter a new industry: ageism.

Thinking any 25 year old is incapable of leadership: ageism.

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”

Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

And not one is a drag queen or a transgender person.
Journalist Evan Hurst has been keeping an ongoing list of Christian and Republican leaders who have been caught exploiting kids.

Hurst has identified 188 Christian and Republican leaders this year, so far, stating, “If MAGA is so upset about Epstein, they should hear about Baptists!”
At least 188 Christian & Republican leaders have been accused of child abuse this year - LGBTQ Nation
"If you are tracking drag queens or trans people or just LGBTQ+ people abusing children ... those stories just don’t happen much."

Dr Douglas Kelley conducted the psychiatric analysis on the senior Nazis being tried at Nuremberg.

These were his conclusions.

It is a warning from history.

Soft secession

Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.
Experts Say Blue States Can Stop Paying Federal Taxes. There’s Precedent
If we could use nullification for people to get high, why can’t we use it to protect human rights and stop fascism?

FFS we ALL know he was screwing kids. He admitted leering at children undressing for a pageant. The list is just people who hung out with Epstein on a regular basis. Trump is number 1 on that.
No shit. Trump is under manners.
Maxwell knows.
The FSB knows.
Mossad knows.
MI5 knows.
CIA/FBI knows.
It *will* come out, the truth always does.
How the Trump regime is protecting Ghislaine Maxwell and buying her silence through special treatment and VIP luxuries in prison. Her latest bid for clemency is part of a broader strategy to protect the Epstein rape network. #OpDeathEaters #EndImpunity

And it’ll be “NO” when it gets to the House.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

trump may be snatching innocent brown people off the street and traumatizing kids and communities but at least he’s making a notorious sex trafficker “happier” and “more comfortable”
Ghislaine Maxwell's prison emails show she is 'happier' at minimum-security Texas facility
Maxwell, a convicted sex offender connected to Jeffrey Epstein, was moved to a less restrictive federal prison this summer. Congress is investigating allegations of special treatment.
