AFRICOM commander Gen. Langley tells senators that China is "trying to replicate" USAID programs in Africa as the US scales back USAID.

"They're trying to use that as an extension of the Belt and Road Initiative to gain favor by the African countries," Langley said.

Wow who could’ve guessed that this would happen

It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world

It’s almost as if it was entirely predictable that America’s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAID’s destruction

It has to be nerve wracking for anyone flying a Mexican flag and protesting to see anyone coming up to them. This guy is a great American

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked.

The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.”

This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

Dear World, (An Apology From Decent Americans) Dear World,

Dear Leaders of the Free World,

Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.

We stand with you.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

The name calling is so childish! It doesn’t create space for community. We can state facts and be smart without calling names. I admit that I did just call Trump ignorant but that is a fact.

Trump³⁴ orders Air Force to stop teaching about Tuskegee Airmen 🤦🏻‍♂️

Of. course.

Now that they're all dead he disrespects them

This is disgraceful!

But it does open the door to erasing him from the history books at some point

HELL YEAH! Congressman Jim McGovern TORE Speaker Mike Johnson a new for saying it wasn’t “his place” to question Trump’s January 6 pardon.

“Not your place?? WHO THE HELL’S PLACE IS IT?” He said.

“How about you stand with the officers who protected you and not a reality show wannabe dictator.” 💙

Pamela Hemphill, who served 60 days in prison for her role in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, said she did not want a pardon. “Absolutely not,” Hemphill said. “It’s an insult to the Capitol Police.” nyti.ms/4hmt67M
