Kushner shut up. I saw the barbarism of Israel. You guys have forgotten the WW2 camps. You are now doing onto others what they did to you. Never Forget is moot.

Their goal is to turn the United States into a "Wealthy Whites and Christians Only" country.

They literally don't give a shit about anyone else.

Which is why they're going to fail.

HUGELY.

Here's their story.

Under the new policy, insurers are required to cover the vaccine for pregnant people without cost sharing. buff.ly/Id2vJbe

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.
