Trump's XENOPHOBIA IS a phobia. Phobias are easy to treat. He thinks his fears of blacks and poor people is just natural. He is wrong. His phobia stopped USAID, a racist act, that has now killed over a million people in Africa 400,00 babies. In the countries Trump despises out of sickness.
Abolitionist John Brown was executed by the state of Virginia on December 2, 1859.

I have always thought like Rachel Maddow... or so it seems when I watch her. One awful night I revealed how Racist NBC had become. She quit the station, but millions of people signed a petition wanting her back. Her voice is still needed, even if she is a candle in the dark.

I STAND WITH THE UNDOCUMENTED.
ICE in Burnsville, MN followed a family home, broke down their door, and abducted 4 of them at gunpoint including the parents of a 7 year old and the husband of a pregnant woman. All of this occurred without a warrant for a home owned by a US citizen. (12/6/25)

'He has five to seven months with us..." says the doctor, releasing Vance, who owes everything to the crazy nut Thiel who is this racist south African who liked apartheid, who because the USA does not tax became a billionaire as did others with millions given to them. He thinks the world is ending.
Remember when Hillary's ability to lead was questioned because of a cold?

Sleepy Don is one thing, now we’re taking about a health crisis. Possible brain bleeds from potential Alzheimer’s infusions & now a bladder/bowel leg bag?

If we go through a succession, does Vance appoint Johnson VP?

CORPORATE FARMERS WILL BE PLEASED.... SOCIALISM FOR THE RICH IS NO PROBLEM. ALWAYS A SAFETY NET. Starve the people around the world by stopping USAID, a million in Sudan. Trump is murdering people around the world who relied on this aide to eat, have water, a doctor.

SORT OF?
NEW: Rural health is in crisis. Congress created a $50B rescue package and gave states just weeks to compete for a slice of it.

$3.75B hinges on whether states pass a series of Trump-approved policies, including restrictions on SNAP.

Texas and Indiana are no longer representing large portions of their populations. This breaks the constitution. NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION. Those of us who cannot afford to go to Florida to buy representation, do not have to pay taxes.

USAID's cancelling, by Trump, has starved a million people. They are mostly in AFRICA, and our president is openly racist, and nationalistic. We as a people have been improving on these fronts. Now, the newly rich are trying to take us back. I WILL NOT GO ALONG WITH RACISM.
