Republicans gave $132 billion in tax breaks to the top 1% in 2027.
With that money, we could have extended ACA tax credits for over 20 million people next year and still have $100 billion left over.

The Disturbing Return Of The Prodigal Son-In-Law
Jared Kushner is so back, and what he's up to should concern us all.
In 2021, Jared Kushner claimed he was leaving politics. Instead, armed with billions in funding from Middle East autocrats, he is brokering βpeaceβ deals for Trump that double as real estate ventures and positioning himself at the center of Trump's media ambitions. None of it is an accident.

Screenshot of a tweet by Edward Wong summarizing a New York Times report. The tweet says Pentagon lawyers asked the State Department whether survivors of Trumpβs boat strikes could be sent to a notorious prison in El Salvador, and later pushed to send them anywhere but the U.S. to avoid court cases requiring evidence. Below is an image showing the New York Times article headline βInside the Pentagonβs Scramble to Deal With Boat Strike Survivorsβ next to a photo of Pete Hegseth wearing a suit and tie in the White House.
Note the goal: βto prevent court cases that would require evidence.β

Of course, normal handshakes don't involve the back of your hand in any way, shape, or form, so this is an obvious lie even by Trumpian standards.
