No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas.

Bridget Brink didn’t just resign—she walked out in fury. Trump bullied Zelenskyy, sided with Putin, and dared to call it “peace.” Brink called it what it is: appeasement. That Oval Office meeting was a disgrace. Trump didn’t just fail Ukraine—he spit on its fight for freedom. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

Folks we have to stay focused. Watch this Psaki💣 where she explains how MAGA Republican Hardliners voted with Democrats to tank the “big beautiful bill,” because they don’t think the cuts to Medicaid and SNAP go far enough. Stop falling for the shiny object and make sure voters know this! LFG!!
