Donald Trump’s lying again.
He lost in court when Illinois stood up against his attempt to militarize American cities with the National Guard. Now Trump is forced to stand down.

The vile, intentional, hideous destruction of everything good and decent about America is horrifying. I’m hopeful some organization will swoop in and preserve what they can. But no one should have to!!! Everyone who voted for him, and the Congress who confirmed his appointees, are all enablers.

This is monstrous. He wants to turn the residents of the state against Walz and against the Somali-American population.
BREAKING
The Trump administration says it has frozen all childcare payments to Minnesota in the aftermath of allegations of fraud by some in the Somali community.
Important: allegations along these lines have existed for years, which has resulted in prosecutions starting with the Biden DOJ.
