i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

ABC, which recently agreed to a $16m Trump shakedown, responded to Leavitt's invective by caving again and suspended the reporter in question, Terry Moran
Leavitt: "ABC is gonna have to answer for what their so-called journalist put out on twitter ... we have reached out to ABC. They have said they will be taking action, so we will see what they do ... hopefully this journalist will either be suspended or terminated."

-People making less than $17/k year: LOSE $1000
-People making between $17k and $51k/yr: LOSE $700
-People making over $4.3M/year: GAIN $389,000
This is what class warfare looks like.

My new memoir, "Coming Up Short,' explores what I've learned, where I failed, and how future generations can pick up the fight for a better world. Learn more:

I’ve delivered babies whose moms got their health care coverage through Medicaid—and now House Republicans want to gut it. As an OBGYN, a mom, and a member of Congress, I won’t stay quiet. Watch why this fight is personal for me. ⬇️
