After the companies agreed to these shakedowns—sorry, settlements—the fund created to receive donations was dissolved last September. Since then, Senate Democrats have been asking: What happened to the money?

That’s the point — if we are aware of the scenarios and we are ready to mock and block, these stunts can be deterred or turned against Trump. One of them just failed hard in Hungary — because people were ready!
Excuse me? He said what to whom?!! The hubris!
"Over the past several months, our community has built a blueprint that other communities can use when federal agencies attempt to move detention infrastructure into their neighborhoods..."

They didn’t learn from the last national election? ☹️

In their first public appearance together, Mayor Zohran Mamdani of New York met with former President Barack Obama at a child care center in the Bronx on Saturday to promote the mayor’s free child care plan. nyti.ms/4mzTgaY
If President Trump’s attempt to dismantle birthright citizenship succeeds, he'll create a vulnerable underclass of people who are born in the United States but unable to fully participate in our democracy.
We will not let that happen.
the trump administration is selling this country wholesale to rapacious, extractive industries that will destroy our collective resources for private profit morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/breaking-t...
“migratory freshwater fish populations have declined by about 81% worldwide since 1970”
I was born in 1976 but basically think my generation’s lifespan will have bridged an irreversible transition b/t relatively stable earth systems & whatever beleaguered and chaotic dwindling comes next
REAL TALK - IS TRUMP FUCKING HIGH RN?! Nigeria is the most populated country in Africa with 237 MILLION people. Also its 45% Christian or 106 million. GN has been fighting a counter insurgency against Islamic terrorists for DECADES.
we were helping them stop Boko Haram.
GET HIM OFF ADDERAL
It’s funny because it isn’t 😕 🇺🇸
He's my kind of "hero." 😁
According to the forecasting models, the current steep funding cuts— coupled with the potential dissolution of the agency—could lead to more than 14 million additional deaths by 2030, averaging more than 2·4 million deaths per year. These deaths include 4·5 million among children younger than 5 years, or more than 700 000 deaths annually.
There is not a single person in the Democratic Party who is treating the death of USAID with the gravity it deserves. There’s no political issue more important than the death of 14 million people, but they’re just delivering boilerplate condemnations and nothing more.
Protecting his stock portfolio while ripping away health care from 17 million Americans.
This is Washington at its worst.
We need to ban Congressional stock trading.
I will never, ever understand why Republican representatives are so afraid of Trump. His cronies might try to trash their reelection? So get another job. Better than (I hope) not sleeping nights, knowing that you’ve helped trash democracy.
I keep thinking about our armed service members who are now in a war, led by a Commander-in-Chief who will consider them “losers and suckers” should they become injured or, God forbid, lose their lives in the time ahead.
The rest of us good Americans thank you for your service. Godspeed.
If there are no consequences for Trump, will he care what the Supreme Court says?
NEW: Supreme Court asked for the first time to consider striking down Trump's most sweeping tariffs. Two educational-toy makers ask justices to directly -- and quickly -- review a federal district judge's conclusion that that tariffs exceed Trump's authority. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Masses of demonstrators packed into streets, parks and plazas across the United States on Saturday to protest Trump, marching through downtowns and small towns, blaring anti-authoritarian chants mixed with support for protecting democracy and immigrant rights.
Just wondering: does Trump own hotels? Surely not, because that would be a way to line his pockets in violation of the Constitution's emoluments clause. But Trump wouldn't do that, would he? 🤠 www.wsj.com/us-news/trum...
🤣 For real.
ICE arrested former Afghan Nat'l Army soldier—our ally against Taliban—at his home in TX.
He entered legally and atty says he has no criminal record. Was applying for asylum. Appears to be casualty of Trump decision de-documenting legal Afghan immigrants

So they want us to believe that people who were seeking work at Home Depot are a threat to our community?? The same people who suburban families invite into their homes to complete tiling and roofing projects?!
That’s who we’re supposed to fear and not the thugs in riot gear?!?
Trump & Co have been waiting & hoping for this moment—for an excuse to send in the troops. Be stronger than they are—protest peacefully. ☮️ 💪❤️
The State of California has not requested National Guard support because it is not needed. Invoking the Insurrection Act under these conditions is an abuse of power. We urge everyone to remain peaceful — violence only fuels those looking to justify further escalation.
Notice how quickly trump send National Guard troops to L.A. to calm immigration protests but refused to do the same on Jan. 6 when his supporters were storming the Capitol.
