Trump wants to balloon the military budget to over $1 TRILLION per year β€” while cutting roughly that amount from Medicaid and SNAP.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon just failed its 7th consecutive audit.

"Fiscal responsibility."

SHUT IT DOWN! It is the republican’s fault’. Make them take the credit for this one. No dems should be voting for anything with republicans except impeachment.
You are a total disappointment John.

This struck a cord in me. Did the same. Women’s rights, Gay/Lesbian (now of course LGBTQ+) rights, abortion rights, and human rights. It’s hard to believe that we are here again. I join you in doing the best that I can! πŸ”΅πŸ’™

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked.

The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, β€œOh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love thatβ€”I’ll take that.”

This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

Affirmative action for white men Since taking office on January 20, President Donald Trump has targeted so-called "diversity, equity, and inclusion" programs, also known as DEI.

1. Let's be clear

A central premise of the Trump admin is there is pervasive discrimination against hard-working white men, who are being replaced by less-qualified women and minorities

So over the last 2 weeks Trump has implemented an aggressive affirmative action program for white men

Not to worry as it’s only a tier 1 violation of the Constitution and, as everyone knows, it only really becomes a problem at tier 3 and above.

CBS reports that Trump almost FLOODED the Central Valley of California by instructing the Army Corps of Engineers to release billions of gallons of water from two reservoirs in California's Central Valley.

Most insane part is that you or I have as much right to storm into a government agency and seize computers as Musk does. As in: zero. But it’s all being normalized by #complicitmedia. β€œdoge” is bullshit.

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His β€œdepartment” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority.

Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness.

It’s wild how Elmo just eradicated Congress.

Anyone who stays silent about this never gets to use the word β€œconstitutional” again.
