I disagree with the way that you’ve worded this post, implying that there’s an apples to apples comparison here there is not. After a years-long FBI investigation, it was determined that Clinton's server did not contain any information or emails that were clearly marked classified.

It is shameful that America has a president and vice president who would take the side of Putin, a Russian dictator who invaded the sovereign territory of Ukraine and who poisons his enemies.

In the conversation between Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Donald Trump, and JD Vance today at the White House, there was only one person who acted presidential, and that person was Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office visit ended early when Donald Trump and JD Vance began angrily yelling at him. But women are too emotional to be President???

Opinion | This Never Happened With an American President Before Trump’s behavior in the Oval Office with Zelensky was an unparalleled break with American foreign policy.

Tom Friedman: "This is a total perversion of U.S. foreign policy practiced by every president since World War I. My fellow Americans, we are in completely uncharted waters, led by a president, who β€” well, I cannot believe he is a Russian agent, but he sure plays one on TV.​"

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.

Call your representative to ask that Medicaid funding NOT be cut. It is not β€œPro-Life” to take away a newborn baby’s healthcare.

From deportations to health care, state lawmakers are key for much of Trump's domestic agenda Federal power only goes so far. State governors and legislatures have wide authority over local law enforcement, schools, health and how cities and counties handle immigration.
