A monumental waste of money, all to try to trick U.S. evangelicals into continuing to support Trump as a “protector of Christians.”

Wait..they “found” ONE MILLION more Epstein files?!? I can’t keep track of this anymore. One second it’s a hoax and it doesn’t exist, the next there are a million more files.

Trump invites the press into the meeting in violation of the agreed protocol. Then he kicks them out. Pure chaos, as usual.
Trump tells the press as he meets with Zelenskyy, "I think you could sit outside and have some food. Would you like to have food or do you consider that a bribe, and therefore you cannot write honestly? ... Margo, take them outside and tell the chef to serve them good lunch."

Trump has revoked legal status for at least 1.6 million immigrants over the past year by cancelling programs like TPS and student visas.
Remember: these are people who entered the country legally.
Trump never cared about “legal immigration" — just inflicting cruelty.

Elise Stefanik dropped out of the governor's race and is exiting Congress.
But we'll always remember her for that balmy day in Plattsburgh, New York, when she was roundly booed by her constituents while honoring a deceased county clerk.
Not just boos, but shouts of “Traitor" and “You’re a Nazi.”

Within 15 minutes today, I got two back-to-back notifications of deaths at ICE facilities.
28 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. These facilities are overcrowded & are putting their own profits over health and safety. We need oversight & accountability NOW.

the interesting thing about watching the live streamed genocide in Palestine right now is that this is the exact settler-colonial process that occurred countless times over the last 250 years including in the US. the only difference this time is that cameras exist
