Never in our history has the US voted w/ Dictatorships at the expense of our Democratic allies—that is until today. Trump has not only just ruined US credibility as a global leader, but set back the global fight for democratic values and peace.
The United States joined Russia to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russia's war against Ukraine in a stunning shift from years of US policy.

Nope. Nope. Nope. A woman’s pregnancy and whether or not it’s “at risk” of an abortion is of no business of the government’s.
A Missouri Representative has filed a bill to track pregnancies in the state.
HB 807 will: "Maintain a central registry of each expectant mother who is at risk for seeking an abortion of her unborn child and make the same available to a prospective adoptive parent who has completed screenings."

The orders seek to encourage “patriotic education” and restrict discussions about racism and gender by threatening to withdraw federal funding. But schools are often resistant to change.

Completely unacceptable to begin pointing fingers after such a tragic occurrence.
Just 11 days into his presidency, Donald Trump has been confronted with a national tragedy.
Without waiting for a full investigation — or a list of the victims — the president began pointing fingers and attacking DEI efforts.
