It's not lost on me that the part of the White House we are destroying is the part that has to do with women's history in the White House.

Some statistics about the 16 blue states Russ Vought wants to target:

β€œIn the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s murder, Trump’s DOJ deleted a study from its site stating right-wing violence β€˜continues to outpace all other types of terrorism & domestic violent extremism’ in πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ β€” The study was available online until Friday.” newrepublic.com/post/200537/...

One reason I think so many people are being fired merely for quoting what Kirk actually said is that, based on what I've read, many of his followers were in social media silos where they never heard those things. Showing full picture risks Trump admin being able to capitalize on this politically

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Last night DC neighbors showed up at a police checkpoint at 14th & V ST. NW with handwritten signs warning drivers to avoid the block.

After realizing that the community was successfully diverting all traffic, agents packed up the checkpoint and left. #WeKeepUsSafe

WATCH: U.S. Army veteran gives first-hand account of suffering, starvation in Gaza
YouTube video by Senator Chris Van Hollen WATCH: U.S. Army veteran gives first-hand account of suffering, starvation in Gaza

As starvation worsens by the day in Gaza, the Netanyahu government has been using food as a weapon of war β€” with complicity from Trump and U.S. taxpayer dollars.

This is painful to listen to but here’s what a U.S. Army veteran and Green Beret who witnessed it first-hand recounted to me:
