* Number of additional unemployed Americans since January: 982,000.

* Number of federal government job losses: 271,000. 🤡
Trump: "The only reason our unemployment tucked up and went up to 4.5 percent [it's actually 4.6 percent] is because we are reducing the government workforce by numbers that have never been seen before."

The unemployment rate just hit a four-year high.

President Trump is tanking the economy with mass federal job cuts and reckless tariffs—right before the holidays.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families.

The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

📌ATTENTION MSM: NO interview starts with ANY Republican without making them account for this grotesque statement from the clearly deranged and vengeful President of the United States of America.

Everything about the shooting at Brown is horrific & should make America ashamed of the slaughterhouse we’ve become. But I’m especially holding in my heart the parents who were eagerly planning for their kids to get home for break. Getting them holiday gifts. Planning to cook their favorite meals.

Release the boat videos.

Release the Epstein files.

Release the ICE and Border Patrol body-cam footage.

And there's so much the Trump administration's doing that needs disinfecting.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

I’d rather question why is Kushner there and why is he laying out a vision? We did not vote him into any gov position nor the senate we voted for has approved his candidacy.
