Ramaswamy & Musk under their DOGE scam want to CUT Veterans benefits

Veterans benefits under discretionary spending are NOT fraud waste & abuse

It's the okie doke because House Republicans stalled 2025 budget approval

HOLD Congress accountable to fund Veterans benefits

Children deserve to feel safe at home & in school. This new bill I signed:

➡️ Bars childcare facilities & state preschools from collecting immigration info
➡️ Protects parents’ legal rights & kids’ security if separated
➡️ Ensures schools have safety plans in times of crisis

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵
Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu." Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I think it would be an absolute shame if people found out the Portland Inflatable Frog Costume is still available on Amazon under $40 and it'll be delivered before Halloween. We wouldn't want the regime to be defeated by a frog army, now would we?

Trump takes a personal plane from Qatar

Qatar gets a training base in Idaho

Argentina gets 20 billion

Our troops are NOT getting paid nor are our federal workers

What exactly are Trump and Republicans' priorities?

“Christian conservatives” (they’re neither) Republicans are getting exactly what they want.

Lower wages, less flexibility, and limited reproductive choice—all these push women back into financial insecurity, unpaid home work and out of the higher corporate and management jobs. #VoteLikeWitches!

Women were closing the pay gap with men. That’s now changing.
The gender wage gap is growing. RTO is one reason, new study suggests, Researchers found that women were about three times more likely than men to leave a job for more flexible working conditions.

History's first American pope called for imprisoned journalists to be released and said the work of journalists must never be considered a crime. Rather, journalism is a right and a pillar upholding "the edifice of our societies" that must be protected and defended, he said.
