In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence.
In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home.

Trump is pushing 170,000 Americans with disabilities out of their home and on to the streets. He’s cutting more than $2 million from the program that provides long-term housing to people with disabilities, most of whom are 50+ in age. Cruel. And a typical Trump solution to housing affordability.

13 years from Sandy Hook and we have made no progress in the need for comprehensive gun legislation. Trump and the GOP have their hands in the NRA's cookie jar. When dead children became an acceptable price to pay to preserve Second Amendment rights The NRA became a Domestic TERRORIST organization

Trump and his acolytes have increasingly been using the term “reverse migration” and even proposed an “office of remigration”. The idea, borrowed from white supremacists in Europe, understands immigrants as an inherent threat to the identity of what they imagine to be “white” nations.

Haaland: Affordability is real. We have a president downplaying the suffering that people are experiencing in our country. He is not listening. He’s in a bubble, and you can look at him and see that he’s never had to worry about missing a meal himself.

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.
This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.
