My question to Don the Con is, "What Countries would you be returning those Billions of Dollars to?" That Money came only from one Country, the USA and US taxpayers, you ass! What enforcement method was used to extract actual cash from other countries? Hmm? There isn't one. Fuck me. Its a tax on US.

The recent Decision of the United States Supreme Court concerning TARIFFS could allow for Hundreds of Billions of Dollars to be returned to Countries and Companies that have been β€œripping off” the United States of America for many years to come, and now, according to this Decision, could actually continue to do so, at an even increased level. I am sure that the Supreme Court did not have this in mind! It doesn’t make sense that Countries and Companies that took advantage of us for decades, receiving Billions and Billions of Dollars that they should not have been allowed to receive, would now be entitled to an undeserved β€œwindfall,” the likes of which the World has never seen before, as a result of this highly disappointing, to say the least, ruling. Is a Rehearing or Readjudication of this case possible??? PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Trump Administration's New Healthcare Plans Could Slap Families With $31,000 Deductibles | Common Dreams New Trump healthcare plans offer lower premiums but come with high deductibles, risking financial burden on patients. Ex

Trump’s grand plan to lower health care costs is to make changes to the Affordable Care Act that could increase a family’s yearly deductible to $31,000.

That’s after he let ACA subsidies expire in his big, ugly bill.

Remember: he doesn’t actually care about making your life better.

Dems demand records from anti-voting groups on DOGE β€˜voter data agreement’ Several election denial organizations have called for the Trump Administration to use Social Security data to audit voter rolls and challenge election results.

Corrupt is no longer a strong enough word to describe MAGA and Trump.

Malfeasance is now my choice word to describe how: illegal, dishonest, rotten, vile, fraudulent, corrupt, awful, and perverted they have become.

If records tied to Donald Trump are missing from the Epstein files, that's not a coincidence. The FBI interviewed the victim multiple times, so those records exist. Where are they?

Release everything, as the law requires. If there's nothing to hide, prove it.

This is murder. ICE routinely deposits released detainees far from their home just to be cruel. It’s standard practice. To do this to a blind man on a wet cold winter day in Buffalo is to know you are potentially sending him to his death.

Donald Trump canceled Direct File after giant tax prep companies spent millions lobbying.

Why? Because Direct File let you file your taxes for free.

So today, I’m introducing a bill to make Direct File the law of the land. And 160 members of Congress are joining me.

Hungary's leader orders extra security at energy sites, claiming Ukraine plots disruptions Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor OrbΓ‘n ordered extra security at critical energy infrastructure sites after claiming Ukraine was attempting to disrupt Hungary’s energy system.

Viktor Orban is now 20 points behind in the polls - and so he has ordered the military to guard β€œkey energy facilities” against a possible Ukrainian β€œattack.” Hungarians fear he plans a fake national security emergency or false-flag incident before the April 12 election

Donald Trump stole your money

The Supreme Court ruled that his tariffs were an illegal tax. Now he has your money, and he won’t give it back. Dems should make returning your money a centerpiece of the midterm message:
