Really shocked that an admin filled with podcasters, social media influencers, reality TV participants, indicted felons, crypto bros, drunks, Fox hosts, drug addicts, weirdos, and unqualified ass kissing toadies can’t keep their shit together for 24 consecutive hours.

I miscarried twice…once in a toilet. A 9 week pregnancy is the size of a period clot. I flushed the toilet. Today, I could go to jail for that. Jail. For a wanted pregnancy my body rejected and I took care of by myself.

BREAKING: ICE agents have deployed flash-bang grenades against Americans in San Diego as they continue their racist, haphazard roundup of non-whites. This will only get worse. And it will get worse because Trump wants violence. He knows violence begets violence, and that he—only he—has a military.

The Trump admin has illegally fired THOUSANDS of federal employees who work every day to deliver for the American people. People like Keri in MD — whose work promoted US manufacturing & jobs, until she was fired. I shared her story in a hearing with Sec. Lutnick this morning:

Trump’s tariff mess is wreaking havoc on U.S. manufacturing—slowing production and hurting businesses and consumers across the country. Nothing about this is “America First.” It’s just another betrayal from an administration that’s failed working people.

The Department of Homeland Security is NOT making our country safer. They're ignoring immigration laws. They're handcuffing moms, zip tying children and disappearing them without hearings or due process. They're weaponizing DHS to purge people from the population. They're hiding their faces.⬇️

They lied and continue to lie. If you think this stops at Medicaid ,you are wrong . They will go after Medicare as well. If you think that will not impact private insurance , you are wrong. Private insurance will triple and death panels will be bigger than ever . Just my take 🤷
