Both Donald Trump and his Slovene-born escort spent years calling for Obama’s birth certificate. I am calling for Melania Trump’s legal immigration papers: How did she get an “Einstein” visa for extraordinary abilities despite her blatant lie under oath about her college degrees?

This shutdown is proof that Trump and his MAGA Republicans don’t care about the American people.

They don’t care about federal workers who aren’t receiving paychecks, they don’t care about your flights, and they don’t care about Americans being able to afford health care.

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · 1d

The first wave of missed paychecks from the government shutdown is likely to hurt the economy in many communities.

The pain from the government shutdown is about to hit the public

Reform accounts on X, who now form the vast majority of highlighted posts (Musk is doing this deliberately), are posting the most outrageous lies & fake stories on X to deflect from stories about Reform’s Russian connections. Many of these are of course fake Russian accounts.

This senile liar who currently occupies the White House does not remember that he was President on January 6th.
