So bad at your job that Donald Trump fires you, is a new level.

We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

One year ago today, the liquor stores took all US alcohol products off their shelves, and most still won't buy US alcohol products. US alcohol exports to Canada have dropped 63% since last year. Jim Beam, JD, and other distilleries are hurting. This is on the Tangerine Toddler. #Trump

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.

When will he be deposed.? The twice impeached President Trump is certainly not exempted from deposition if Bill and Hillary Clinton were not exempted. They were bought before the same judicial committee as others who have held such high offices have.
DEPOSE DONALD J. TRUMP. It is time to do it.

TED makes multi-million-dollar investment to boost safe abortion in 10 countries This is the first time TED’s Audacious Project has invested in an organization specifically focused on abortion access and care.

The global reproductive rights organization Ipas will be receiving "multi millions" from TED's Audacious Project. This is the first time the project has funded an organization that works specifically in abortion access and care since the initiative was developed in 2018.

Bunch of Senators on both sides sounding the alarm about possible boots on the ground in Iran after their classified briefing today.

I was told Kamala was going to send my children to fight in Iran. What happened?

In Cuba, relentless US pressure tells in human suffering Trump’s oil blockade has driven the island’s long-standing humanitarian crisis to a new level. Cubans are running short of coping strategies.

The US blockade on oil shipments to Cuba is collective punishment; creating a full-blown humanitarian collapse. Healthcare, food systems, electricity, and public services are deteriorating rapidly and simultaneously. It’s the elderly and children suffering. www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news-feature...

New reporting finds that Trump's DOJ took over and quashed a state investigation into Epstein's New Mexico ranch in 2019.

As the walls close in on Trump, he'll do anything β€” including launch full-scale wars β€” to distract the public.
