Horsford: They are cutting healthcare for 13.7 million Americans. The largest cut to healthcare in U.S. history to give tax cuts to billionaires and to big corporations. This is your priority.

Really can’t get over the fact that Trump is trying to score a $400 million luxury jet for himself on the same day his party announces a budget that’d rip health insurance from 13.7 million Americans.

Did the Trump administration provide white robes and hoods for the South African "refugees"? They could include MAGA hats, Trump Bibles, Trump sneakers, and Cybertrucks, since they aren't selling well.

Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners? TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

He's losing court cases. He's losing his trade war. His cabinet is a disaster. Voters are turning out against his people and ideals. He's unpopular. He looks weaker everyday. The only thing he has is executive orders and firing his own people. It's early, keep fighting, we're going to win this. 💙

Fascism and trade wars are inherently more dangerous to those who are struggling the most. Immigrants, people of colour, LGBTQ+, disabled & elderly people will be hit the hardest. People say “we survived them once & we can survive them again!” Many did NOT survive. We fight in their memory.
