Please support the ACLU's push-back on SCOTUS's cruel ruling on transgender healthcare. These cruel, gender-norm obsessed people need to grow up and get out of their kindergarten-bully mindset. action.aclu.org/send-message...

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be the story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

Joni Ernst is a POS: "Illegals" don't get Medicaid benefits. Medicaid is not money mailed to people. Medicaid PAYS health bills. My mom's memory care was paid for by Medicaid. And it's HARD as HELL to qualify. Undocumented people sometimes pay IN thru taxes. They do NOT get friggin' benefits. Bitch.
