Earlier this year, "DOGE" canceled an $8M/year contract with a contractor that ensured equal employment opportunities at ICE.

So far, Trump has spent over $30M of taxpayer dollars on his golf trips. He has spent 25% of his second term on the golf course, or one in every four days spent golfing.

Can you guess which country Trump didn't announce additional tariffs on?

Fun Fact: Under the U.S. Constitution, international students in the United States have the right to free speech and due process.

This means the government cannot legally detain international students just because of something they wrote or said.

Trump says he will buy a 'new Tesla' to show support for Musk U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he will buy a new Tesla car to show support for the electric carmaker's chief and his ally Elon Musk amid recent "Tesla Takedown" protests and the slump in the company's stock price.

A summary:

Trump Administration: We pardoned the people who stormed the capitol, assaulted police, and damaged federal property on Jan 6, 2021.

Trump Administration: Anyone who causes damage to a Tesla will face 20 years in prison. We are coming after you.

When the Nazis protested with tiki torches in Charlottesville, Trump called them β€œfine people”.

When college students protested the genocide in Gaza, Trump called them β€œdomestic terrorist”.

Released yesterday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries unveiled a 10-point war plan for House Democrats to counter many of the Trump Admin's actions to dismantle the government.

Democratic lawmakers have already introduced a bill to prevent a similar Elon Musk takeover of any dept. #NebDems
