Children are dying because Trump gutted USAID and cut lifesaving foreign aid — even though it took up less than 1% of the U.S. budget.

Meanwhile, he's preparing to dole out $40 billion to prop up Argentina's failing economy, all to help out his authoritarian pal.

Priorities.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.

I know Trump and his minions all have sneering contempt for kids with special needs, but trust me when I say that their parents will absolutely fucking destroy anyone who messes with the special education supports to which they are entitled by law.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

Special education isn't a "nice thing to have." It isn't "charity" or doing something to make us feel better. It is a right. The right to a Free Appropriate Public Education is codified in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, signed by a Republican president.

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files.

My team has now filed motions to defend voters in 7 of those cases in ME, MI, MN, NH, NY, OR and PA.

I suggest that DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining one in CA.

Here is a map of stations who will not carry Kimmel tonight. Anyone in these areas should contact the stations and boycott the advertisers who advertise on the Trump Regime approved alternate broadcast. Nexstar and Sinclair are afraid of Trump’s FCC. Make them afraid of their viewers.

Kimmel is back, but many Americans won’t be able to watch.

Two companies — Nexstar and Sinclair — control hundreds of local TV stations and have business deals pending Donald Trump’s approval.

They won’t air Kimmel tonight.

I’m pressing for answers on potential corruption.

OMG! The friendship of 'pedo bros' Trump and Jeffrey Epstein has been memorialized with two 12 foot high bronze statues in the National Mall in DC of the pedophiles holding hands. Also included is the repulsive letter Trump penned to Epstein for his 50th birthday. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇

An astounding answer by Kash Patel that flies in the face of the statements by multiple survivors.

Kyle Cheney @kyledcheney.bsky.social · Sep 16

Kash Patel says the FBI has NO information that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked minors to anyone other than himself.

SEN. KENNEDY: "Who, if anyone, did Epstein traffic these young women to?"

PATEL: "There is no credible information, none ... that he trafficked to other individuals."
