Um. Hmm. This is delicate so let me try to get this correct.

Remember during the campaign he said that he would “root out the communists, Marxists, fascists, and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country?”

So… he’s designating himself a terrorist?

I can’t even truly understand $20 billion, let alone $40 billion.

That’s our money, Americans. Like wtf.

Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov · 2h

Trump wants to DOUBLE Argentina's bailout to $40 billion to save his political ally.

Yet he is doing nothing to prevent 15 million Americans from losing their health care and 20 million from seeing a doubling in their premiums.

Is this what Trump means by America first?

Los Angeles County voted to declare a state of emergency in response to federal ICE raids. Normally reserved for natural disasters, the declaration allows the county to mobilize resources and offer assistance to residents impacted by the raids.

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

It’s not confusing socialism with Nazis. It’s that “Nazi” is short for “national socialist” (much like how “antifa” is “antifascist”)

I wish the ICC had jurisdiction over us. When the world starts over, it should be mandatory for any country that wants its sovereignty recognized to be a member of the ICC.

Also, I’m trying to understand how the soldiers executing these orders don’t recognize them as unconstitutional

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

The hostage release is a reminder of how bad the Dems are at politics. Not only did Biden refuse to force this deal on Netanyahu & thereby help Harris win, but most people aren’t even aware that Biden got way more Israeli hostages (over 100) released with his 2023 ceasefire than Trump did with his.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."
