The state then paid *$6,200 a month* to house her kids in foster care.

When Bari Weiss refers to her “North Star” I assume she’s talking about Trump’s butthole.

OK then, what was the action? What has the Trump admin done? What proposals have they made? They have only ever offered “thoughts and prayers” on social media. Nothing else.

National Pedophile Day has been added to the list of free entry days to our parks.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.
They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Solidarity with Rep. Ilhan Omar and the Somali community in the face of this vile, racist garbage
The president’s obsession with the Somali community and me is really unhealthy and creepy. He is trying to deflect from his failures and sinking approval ratings. Sorry, Trump, we all see through your attempts to hide from your broken promises.

Not sure if Republicans will release Trump’s brain MRI to distract from the Epstein files, or announce he’s on the Epstein list to distract from how bad that MRI is.

House Republicans held a hearing yesterday on balancing the federal budget.
Of course, even their own witness conceded that Trump’s reckless tax bill will increase the deficit by TRILLIONS of dollars.
