I'M TIRED OF "LIBERAL" BEING USED AS AN INSULT.
LIBERALISM GAVE YOU THE VOTE.
LIBERALISM GAVE YOU EQUALITY.
LIBERALISM GAVE YOU FREE SPEECH
LIBERALISM GAVE YOU YOUR INALIENABLE RIGHTS.
LIBERALISM IS THE ENEMY OF TYRANTS, AND I'LL BE FOREVER PROUD TO DEFEND IT.

20 billion dollars from the US Treasury **was not enough**. So now it's 40 billion dollars! And why stop there?

All while the US government is shut down.

"America First," amirite?

One of the things people will be protesting this Saturday at No Kings is Scott Bessent sending $40 billion of our money to Argentina while Trump plays golf and Congress says nothing.

That isn’t “hating America.”

That is America First.

Republicans want bailouts for oligarchs.

Your hard earned tax dollars at work. Kristi Noem is spending 75 BILLION dollars to pay masked thugs to zip tie 6 year old children and arrest clarinet players.

The GOP spent years screaming about a manufactured Biden bribe but says nothing about this. Tells you all you need to know.

Tweet by Melanie D’Arrigo stating: “The UAE bought $2B of Trump’s crypto — and gets computer chips. Saudi Arabia gave Kushner $2B for a new Trump Tower — and gets weapons. Qatar gives Trump a private jet and a $5.5B real estate deal — and gets US military protection. This is how bribes work.” Below is an image of Donald Trump sitting across from the Emir of Qatar in a formal meeting room. Text overlay: “Quid Pro Presidency.”

Apparently $20B of our taxpayer money wasn't enough to bail out Argentina.

Now Trump wants U.S. banks to divert ANOTHER $20B away from lending to American businesses, farmers, and families to prop up Milei's corrupt presidency and failing economy.

So much for America First.
