Trump tried to withhold billions of dollars in federal funding to coerce states, punish opponents, remake programs & impose his views. His targets have repeatedly sued to stop him & the courts have repeatedly rebuked him- only for the president to try again & again.

Trump's ICE goons arrested a wheelchair-bound decorated war hero who was just ONE interview away from becoming a U.S. citizen and threw him in jail for FOUR MONTHS!
Zahid Chaudhry won seven medals and lost his legs serving our country in Iraq-but that didn't stop ICE from arresting him.
JFC! The right already stripped abortion rights from millions of women. Contraception is next.
Project 2025 made the agenda clear. This was never about saving babies. It’s about control, pushing women back into submission and forcing more births.

NEW: Georgia cops arrested a woman for murder after a hospital said she had an abortion with misoprostol.
But in a disturbingly similar 2015 case, a prosecutor said state law prohibits criminal charges—and @ifwhenhow.bsky.social tells @autonomynews.co the law hasn't changed. Both women are Black.

KAROLINE LEAVITT: “CNN lied, alleging that this administration was ill-prepared for the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. That is UNEQUIVOCALLY FALSE!”

And, We Have Motive.
Consider for a moment
The kind of human being
That believes the Bullshit
Donald Trump shovels
Everyday.
And then marvel,
At the sheer number of them
In America.
You then realize
Why we can't have nice things,
Like affordable Health Care,
Child Care, and Housing.
