The four kids shot in Stockton, California were 8, 9, 14 and 21.
Why isn’t that a national tragedy?
Why doesn’t that provoke the outrage that we saw with Charlie Kirk or the National Guard shooting?
This country doesn’t care about children. They don’t care about gun violence.

Doubling down on a failed policy that is increasingly unpopular and puts National Guard members at risk for a hateful white nationalist immigration policy?

Commenting on something Trump posted online by saying that it was likely written by someone else adds nothing to the conversation. I don't give a rat's ass how Trump authors the content he publishes under his name—if he published it, he said it. Stop focusing on conspiracy theories about authorship.

The reason Trump illegally used an anonymous billionaire to pay soldiers during the Epstein Shutdown is because he's going to need troops for the Insurrection Act and martial law.
The reason he'll let the poor die is because he doesn't give a shit about them. Their lives don't advance his schemes.
