This is exactly the kind of xenophobic rhetoric that is inciting hatred and racism in our country.
Just another example of this administration sowing chaos and fear into our immigrant communities. Detestable.

When he's backed into a corner, Trump lashes out.
This time, he's attacking the Somali community, painting an entire community as "garbage."
A reminder that none of this is normal. It's unhinged.

He’s “fighting crime” by pardoning former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez — who was convicted of conspiring to traffic over 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.
More Trump BS.
Something must be in it for him or his family…

Since 1988, World AIDS Day has been a time to honor those lost to HIV/AIDS and recognize the progress made to end the epidemic.
Instead of standing with those living with HIV/AIDS, this regime has cut funding, spread stigmas, and turned a medical success into a political battle.

This Thursday, families will gather around their tables to eat together. But far too many families will struggle to even put food on the table because of this regime’s cruelty.
No family deserves to go hungry, but Republicans' historic cuts to SNAP are only making hunger worse.
