The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Trump is bailing out Argentina with $40 billion while leaving American farmers twisting in the wind. At this point, it’s obvious he doesn’t want them to succeed.

Republicans are attacking the No Kings rally as Un American and hateful. That’s BS. Americans have 1A right to peacefully protest!
