Imagine calling yourself the master race and have to resort to erasing the achievements of minorities to make yourself feel better.

A transgender TSA officer, who has identified and presented as a woman since her first day, is no longer allowed to pat down travelers thanks to a Trump executive order issued that, with a stroke of the pen, wrongfully reclassified her as a man.

Exclusive details: TSA officer Danielle Mittereder ‘just wants to do her job,’ her attorney told The Independent. ‘And she’s not allowed to do it, for the sole reason that she is transgender.’

Here’s the single frame from the video where you can see clearly a masked Border Patrol agent with one hand on the steering wheel and the other hand outside the window spraying pepper spray randomly into the open window of a passing car.

If I see no concern that people were going without food or paycheck, then it won't be hard to assume that you'd be willing to use the same tools if you had power. It is a sucky problem having evil people in charge, but we dont use people as pawns.

▫️State-specific variations, annual adjustments & household income can affect max amount

▫️Walmart's net profit (end of 1/25): $19.44B

▫️$3.00/hr raise would reduce or eliminate SNAP for some but, it wouldn't make it uneeded for all ⬇️ income individuals or families

Oh look, the party that protects sexual predators is also hiring them.

Those who are upset about Mamdani being elected as the Mayor of NYC should reel in that racism and bigotry. Your president has no problem with Muslims as long as it benefits his wealth. Mandami is a citizen of the USA, not a terrorist, NY made a good choice. ☮️

Law is not self-justifying; it breathes through the consent of the governed.

In Washington, twelve citizens just withdrew that consent — and, in doing so, reminded the Republic who grants its authority.
Twelve Citizens and the Social Contract
Twelve citizens sat in a room and remembered who they were.

NYC is not the center of the universe. It is one city in America. This was clearly not the case across the rest of the country where moderates won but keep lying to yourself.

Nor was his win a mandate anymore than Trump's, bc as with Trump, he did not win by as large margins as you believe. 1/
For better and for worse, it's undeniable: democratic socialists are the base of the Democratic Party

Sourced from a friend of a friend who apparently went to the same high school as Zohran Mamdani: he was in his high school's Judaic Cultural Society. In case some people were concerned that his outreach to the jewish community was just temporary pandering, he's been an ally for decades!
