The richest family in the United States, the Waltons, made money by not paying Walmart employees enough. This forced employees to seek government assistance for food and healthcare.
Republicans’ response is to take away that assistance because the Waltons aren’t rich enough.

Look what I found when I searched "ICE uniform" in Google Shopping.
None of us have any way of knowing if the "ICE agent" pushing you into a car, isn't just some unbalanced vigilante into cosplay. These are very dangerous times.

Yet another example of how Trump's intimidation, shakedowns, and extortions of media are working: ABC suspends Terry Moran. This was in response to Karoline Leavitt demanding that ABC take action after the reporter reported the truth, which Leavitt found inconvenient.

This is what ripping families apart over immigration status looks like.

The Trump admin is dismantling Freedom of Information Act offices. Then the offices send out emails like, “Hello, the FOIA office has been placed on admin leave and is unable to respond to any emails.” The lengths this admin will go to ensure zero transparency with the American people is astounding.
