“Tell your children who the cowards were.” -Ta-Nehisi Coates
Trump just endorsed a post calling for the arrests of Chris Wray and Merrick Garland.
There's almost no media coverage of the sitting president supporting the arrest of a former FBI director and former Attorney General.

The President of the United States unilaterally levied a tax on all of us and is redistributing our taxes to a core segment of his supporters.
Trump: "I'm delighted to announce this afternoon that the US will be taking a small portion of the hundreds of billions of dollars we receive in tariffs ... and we're going to be giving and providing it to the farmers in economic assistance. We love our farmers. The farmers like me ... $12 billion"

Over 120 mRNA cancer trials are now at risk as the Trump admin cuts funding & tells researchers to scrub “mRNA” from grant proposals.
What started as COVID fearmongering is now derailing life-saving cancer research.
