Unless it was foregone conclusion - it was - the Kennedy Center board (made up of people who tRump appointed) couldn't have the new signage for the Center ready the very next day. You expect this in Russia not the USA.

Oh look— COLUMBIA ACADEMY, which takes vouchers, is raising their tuition fees… just like public school advocates predicted they would.🤔

Congrats @GovBillLee on successfully steering hundreds of millions of dollars to already wealthy (mostly religious) private schools, for kids who already go there

Once again, tRump proves he IS the law, IS the state. He can take the life of someone on 5th Avenue (he really said that) or using ICE on any American street or fishermen (until they prove otherwise) in international waters.

This is authoritarianism.

And the current GOP allows it.

This country will pay a heavy price for far longer than tRump is in office for the damage tRump has wrought on the science community.

From climate to health, from weather to the very lands on which we reside, whether you voted or not, we will all pay a price.

As tRump teases new war, with Venezuela, he shows our current military how he'll view them when they become vets.

With complete disdain.

His own staff told us tRump called soldiers who died fighting for their country “losers” and “suckers”.

Shameful.

For a GOP president—after the Iraq War—to say outright that invading Venezuela is all about oil is wild. But it is. It’s also about corruption, power, graft, and land. And we should take him at his word.

Everything bad is fault of immigrants, according to JD Vance. (Wonder if he blames wife's parents.)

23% Americans are 1st & 2nd generation. 56% are 3rd+. 75% of African Americans are 4th+ generation. Native Americans definitely not immigrants.

2025 will be known as the Year of Lies, Lies, and More Lies

Perhaps the worst of the lies was tRump's promise to deport "the worst of the worst". Instead, he is rounding up, deporting, and leaving the best of the best in inhumane lockups.

Shameful!
