Asked about his brilliant idea of handing Homeland Security to Markwayne Mullin, a guy with zero experience, Trump chose to bolt, fleeing from reporters as if answering questions were a greater threat than the chaos he creates.

Strict new Kansas law forces trans drivers to hand over their licenses
The law also includes a provision that allows Kansans to sue if they are โaggrievedโ by someone of the opposite sex using a public restroom.
Ladies rooms have individually stalls with locked doors. How does a trans person using the next stall hurt me?
It's strictly about hate.
May every Republican who voted for this bill rot in hell.

I was in more than one relationship w/ people who were abusive, emotionally & physically, so it was natural to try & find out what was wrong w/ me.
Then I realized it was all I knew. I had to learn that I was deserving of love & kindness.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces, officials say
The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.
Convicted Felon Donald Trump thinks Putin is his best bud, since Epstein is gone. But to Putin, the Convicted Felon is just a useful idiot.
Emphasis on idiot.

He will die within a year. He is as delusional as Putin, who thinks he can live to around 150 years of age, with the help of the improvement of new medicines.

The SAVE Act masquerades as election integrity, but its harsh proof-of-citizenship rules will disenfranchise millionsโhitting students, seniors, and low-income voters who lack docs like birth certs. Pure voter suppression to skew democracy. Stand up!

Live updates: Trump replaces Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem
Donald Trump will replace Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem with Republican senator Markwayne Mullin.
BREAKING:
Today Trump fired Kristi Noem as DHS Secretary, and replaced her with Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK).
Mullin has no homeland security experience. What he DOES have: violent threats, recent media disasters, absolute Trump loyalty.
This is alarming. Thread ๐งต

We abuse children in the U.S. through Epstein and pedo protection and we kill children globally through careless ill planned wars. See the pattern. The GOP is not the party of family no matter what they say.

The SAVE Act claims to โsecure elections,โ but piles on paperwork that millions donโt easily haveโbirth certificates, passports, documents many low-income Americans lack. Thatโs not security. Itโs a barrier to the ballot box.

A fair tax system should reward work, support communities, and keep the rules transparent. When policies protect everyday taxpayers, confidence in the system grows and the economy becomes stronger for everyone.

Sen. Markwayne Mullin challenges Teamsters leader to a fight. Bernie Sanders intervenes
A congressional hearing devolved into an angry confrontation between a senator and a witness on Tuesday after Republican Sen.
NO EXPERIENCE! Was an NCAA wrestler, owner of Mullin Plumbing. Mullen tried to fight Sean OโBrien, the president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Saying โstand your butt upโ right there in the hearing room.

I know itโs another Trump distraction, but Iโm so happy Kristi Noem is gone. She disappeared Americans, hard-working immigrants, and others.
