I'm so tired of this lunatic puppet and all the malfeasant people/organizations pulling his strings.
Q: "Could we see American troops on the ground in Venezuela?"
Trump: "I don't want to comment on that."
Q: "Can you rule out a ground invasion?"
Trump: "I don't wanna rule in or out. I don't talk about that."

Trump didn’t just wage a war on kids — he’s coming for Medicaid and CHIP, ripping away the care children rely on to survive and grow. Families are already drowning in costs, and now their kids’ lifelines are on the chopping block.

A 19 yr old girl was kidnapped at a Massachusetts airport and deported to Honduras, illegally.
A judge already said she was not to be deported.
She was headed to Texas to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. She did not make it.
This story needs to be heard by everyone!

"The Republicans are wasting time trying to decide what bathroom your neighbor should get to use instead of lowering the cost of healthcare and raising you wages" would be an effective message.
