I am so sick of Trump being treated with outrageous deference. When he was president*, he harmed relations w our allies. Now, our allies must be watching in horror as it appears DOJ took *months* to seize Top Secret docs from Trump. How can they ever trust us?

Eric Trump’s “charity” for kids with cancer paid over $1.2 million to Trump’s own properties — after Donald personally ordered it. They even lied that “100% of donations” went to St. Jude while quietly redirecting funds to Trump-linked groups. They stole from dying children.

The USDA has an emergency fund to continue operating SNAP. By law, they're REQUIRED to use that fund through the shutdown. But they are REFUSING. They're useing recipients as hostages trying to force Dems to support their agenda. Do not negotiate with these terrorists.

It’s no surprise that Trump would lie about Reagan adamantly opposing tariffs. He lies about everything. It is however surprising that the @RonaldReagan foundation would help him do it. What a disgrace.

Republicans shut down the government to make sure that families like Lyn’s couldn’t afford their health care. They created a health care crisis that will kick MILLIONS off their insurance. I’m fighting like hell to protect health care for YOU and YOUR FAMILY.

Virginia Giuffre spent decades exposing Epstein’s network. The Mellons spent decades funding it. Money bought silence. And even after Virginia’s death earlier this year, survivors are still forcing the truth into light.

The cost of the cowardice of this Congress is insanely high as our government is being systematically dismantled and they aren’t even showing up for work. The Republican House is a failure. A Continuing Resolution is by nature a failure to do their jobs and pass a budget. (1/2)

$130,000,000 breaks down to $100 per service member. Not gonna help folks much. But he sure if getting a lot of press for it. What’s he really getting in return?
Timothy Mellon, who donated $130 million to help pay the $9 billion monthly cost to cover military salaries, is currently in litigation over his financial connections to the Epstein Sex Trafficking Ring. What did Timothy Mellon actually buy for $130,000,000?

This year, Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill gave: Google an $18 billion tax break. Amazon a $16 billion tax break. Microsoft a $12 billion tax break. Facebook an $11 billion tax break. Now, they’re writing checks to Trump for his $300 million ballroom. Gee, I wonder why?

Brennan: You dispute the idea that America hurt itself by giving this $20B lifeline to Argentina? Bessent: We are not giving money to Argentina. It is a swap line. We've never lost money. Hard to believe this is real. He's giving the middle finger to taxpayers.

Companies shouldn't feel pressure to placate the president in order to protect their business interests, and a president shouldn't be making policy decisions to bring in money for things that he wants.

Department of Homeland Security is funneling $10 billion through the Navy in order to construct a network of migrant detention centers in Louisiana, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Pennsylvania and Utah. They are stealing from one hand to give to another.

Can’t stop thinking about Trump building a $300 million ballroom to host black tie dinner parties with fat cats, but refusing to spend $5 billion in emergency funds he’s legally obligated to use to prevent 40 million Americans from starving. Dickens couldn’t make this shit up.

After working on his ballroom all week and destroying the East Wing of the WH, Trump is now flying around the world to make deals with autocrats while refusing to negotiate with Democrats to reopen the US government.

Americans are already feeling squeezed by high costs—and Trump’s tariff taxes are just making it worse. Prices are rising at the grocery store, when shopping for clothing, and for appliances and furniture. We should be lowering costs, not raising them with reckless policies.
