Trump’s disgusting sexist attacks on female reporters are an assault on every American woman. His agenda is to 2nd classify women and stripping women of their reproductive rights is just a part of it. Here’s my report: open.substack.com/pub/bonniefu...
"QUIET, QUIET PIGGY: DONALD TRUMP SAYS EXACTLY WHAT HE THINKS ABOUT ALL WOMEN
There's a reason that Donald Trump has led a relentless campaign to deprive women of reproductive rights and their top positions in the military & government agencies- he wants us 'in our place'

1/Catherine Lucey, the White House correspondent for Bloomberg, asked Donald Trump about releasing the Epstein files on Air Force One over the weekend. In response, Trump leaned forward, slashing an accusatory finger her direction and barked, “Quiet! Quiet Piggy,” at her.

Corporate profits have jumped over 70% since 2020, while worker wages barely moved. The money is there, workers just aren’t getting it.

Pat Spearman teaches me that while we are honoring Veterans today, our military & Vets are on SNAP & WIC-
“We would not eat.” That is how disabled U.S. Navy veteran Juan Saro described a life without the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP.

@rosen.senate.gov stand strong. We are looking to you to protect the ACA subsidies. You can’t trust the Republicans to keep their “promise”
Rosen: And on Halloween weekend, in the middle of a shutdown where they’re defunding SNAP, where children will go hungry—millions of them—they are gluttonously eating and partying and laughing at their voters, laughing at what they can do to screw the American people.

TikToker Nikalie Monroe called dozens of churches pretending to be a mom who couldn’t afford baby formula.

Most refused to help.

The results are devastating—and revealing.

Yes, lay it at the feet of the Catholic majority of the Supreme Court to starve people.

I’m here for it. Can’t wait for the pope to weigh in.

This fight isn't over. Our case challenging President Trump's executive order will still move forward.

In the meantime anyone who applies for a new, corrected, or replacement passport, or for a passport renewal, is at risk of having their passport issued bearing the sex they were assigned at birth.
