ICE PEPPER SPRAYED A ONE-YEAR-OLD because her mother was filming them.
ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.

Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.

They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.

Another horrific story.

Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell just voted against extending health insurance tax credits, choosing to let health care premiums skyrocket for thousands of Kentuckians.

They are hellbent on lining billionaires’ pockets over making health care affordable for Kentuckians.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

This week, Trump quietly released his National Security Strategy.

It totally abandons the idea that we should stand up for freedom & human rights around the world.

Instead, it lectures our European allies & embraces authoritarian leaders who enrich the Trump family & their billionaire friends.
