Trump’s Memorial Day message to America is attacking judges and calling Democrats β€œSCUM.”

No mention of the military.

Democrats: learn to fight If the Dems take anything from this moment, it's to exercise political power in the rare instances you get it

"Dems all too often defend the procedures of government instead of exercising power in the rare instances we have it. But unlike Trump, we can exercise it in a virtuous way... We can be both aggressive in our application of power and righteous in how we apply it; they’re not mutually exclusive."

Graves, Larsen Release Draft Bill to Dramatically Reform FEMA | The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure

FEMA is the last line of defense for communities impacted by disasters.

That’s why the T&I Committee released the bipartisan FEMA Act earlier this monthβ€”to reform FEMA and ensure it is helping disaster victims in need. democrats-transportation.house.gov/news/press-r...

The Biden Administration recognized the need to improve the ATC system by growing the workforce & deploying safety technology.

Now, the Trump Administration & DOGE’s efforts to shrink the workforce jeopardize that progress.

T&I Democrats are fighting to protect aviation safety.

There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

Trump ramps up his unpopular immigration crackdown Two new orders, coupled with a garish display outside the White House, suggest Trump is trying to use immigrants to distract from his latest dismal poll numbers.

President Donald Trump is continuing to prioritize his anti-immigration agenda despite multiple polls in recent days showing that most Americans disapprove of it.
