There are some self-proclaimed Christians pushing voucher scams. Vouchers take money from public schools and give it to wealthy parents who already send their kids to private school. I can’t think of anything more un-Christian than stealing from the poor to give to the rich.

“Operation Whirlwind” What’s Happening Now? In 2025, Operation Whirlwind was launched under Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin to investigate alleged threats against employees of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

He wanted us shot in the legs for protesting last time

BREAKING: Donald Trump just fired General CQ Brown (left) and has replaced him with the less qualified Lt. General Dan Caine. DEI isn’t a problem if you’re white.

This is how it’s done.

Houston police captain, Daryn Edwards, who was arrested for possessing videos of children being sexually abused & released on a 250k bond, has been arrested again for child rape charges & is being held without bond. www.khou.com/article/news...

Raskin: "It's becoming obvious to the American people that Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not opponents of corruption, they are agents of corruption."

“It’s no longer just Putin’s Russia that threatens the foundations of Western liberal democracy but Trump’s Washington.”

People need to understand this: Trump did not leave office willingly the first time. If his health holds up, he will not leave office willingly this time. He is not joking about serving more than two terms.

Please make him go away!!

WIRED: “The director of data science and engineering for USDS—which Musk rebranded as DOGE— resigned… ‘I do not believe DOGE can continue to deliver the work of USDS’… even DOGE employees don’t know who is legally running it…” 🤷🏻 www.wired.com/story/doge-e...

Several Kentucky Republicans, including Rep. Andy Barr, have made moves to prepare to enter the race.. "I am considering running for Senate because Kentucky deserves a Senator who will fight for President Trump and the America First Agenda.

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self An absolute joke

The Trump Budget it is

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

You know Elon Musk wants to build and sell Tesla’s cars in Russia and Donald wants to open hotels and golf courses. Everything they do is self-serving.

Russian State Media praises Trump’s latest statement trashing Zelensky as a dictator.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

… “only the President or the Attorney General can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the law is.” That is a LIE.

Bernie Sanders: "We're not only dealing with a move toward authoritarianism, we're dealing with what is new to America -- politicians have always lied, nothing new about that. But the level that we're seeing right now. The big lie, over and over again ... "

Elon Musk: "All we're really trying to do here is restore the will of the people, through the president. And what we're finding is that there's an unelected bureaucracy that is implacably opposed to the president and the cabinet."
