BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

When Mr. Musk, the wealthiest man alive & major campaign contributor, expresses strong distaste for Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, Republicans will listen & obey. That means more cuts to Medicaid, nutrition & education. The oligarchs want it ALL. We’re not going to let that happen.
