Today, the idea of Trump supporting the Equality Act, which would bar discrimination against LGBTQ+ people in major areas of public life, seems far-fetched.

But 25 years ago — even 10 years ago — Trump’s name was hardly synonymous with homophobia or transphobia.

Was Trump always against LGBTQ+ rights? Everything in his past says no.

The president’s previous support is at odds with his anti-trans hostility now. What’s behind the shift?

Yeah, because it’s a lie. Undocumented immigrants are forbidden by law to get health care unless an emergency - which is the humanitarian thing to do.

It’s not a “message.” It’s an out and out lie. Hopefully people are finally wising up to that.

The message being put forth by the Trump administration is that Congressoinal Democrats care more about expanding health-care benefits for undocumented immigrants than about existing government health programmes. So far it hasn’t caught on

Who do Americans blame for the government shutdown?

Our polling of 1,600 people with YouGov suggests which party might blink first

Contradictions abound in the life and times of Pete Hegseth, writes @lylerubin.bsky.social. His harangue at Quantico focused on fat troops and fat leaders, and he waxed romantic about accountability, merit, and high standards—then he introduced Donald Trump.

Trump’s Nazi brown shirts are an unconstitutional private army and should be thrown in prison for their illegal actions. No kings, no dictators!

Trump supporters fall into two simple categories - those that manipulate others and those that are just plain stupid. It’s that simple.

And you’re no longer safe.

Other countries consider us a danger & tell their people NOT to come here.

We are a laughing stock.

There is no one to save us…if we don’t save ourselves we are the world’s mega dictatorship—with a narcissistic psychopath in charge.

What a way to fall off the cliff…🙄

And the demented wanna be Nazi in the WhiteHouse has masked men running amok mostly brutilizing women and other easy targets who look Hispanic, or Asian, or Puerto Rican or in anyway not Lily White. What happened to all the “supposed” gang members and murderers? More lies. It’s all a con.

DonJohn continues saying that ICE is going to be “deporting” murderers and gang members. Remember him saying “They’re opening up the insane asylums & letting them out” he said asylum inmates were “flooding the border”
Think he might be confusing “asylum seekers” with “insane asylums”? I think so.

Your Medicaid is cut. Your health insurance is not safe. Your tips are still taxed. You pay the tariffs. There’s no trade deals. No wars have ended. Gas isn’t $2. Eggs aren’t cheaper. There isn’t $10 trillion in investment. The Epstein files are buried.

It’s. All. Lies.

All the time.
