Nobody wins a trade war. The costs fall on the consumers- us! What is this for? It solves nothing. Trump is stupid, petty and cruel. No wonder all his businesses failed

As news spreads about the wildfires in Los Angeles know this: We depend on incarcerated people to risk their lives to fight wildfires. They get paid mere pennies to do so bc slavery is still legal in prison. And once released, their records bar them from becoming firefighters.

The people that supposedly care about women's rights when it comes to trans people openly mock women for their appearance when they're in positions of power.

These are the people that actually hate women.
