Consistent with WH Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair telling House GOP members to stop talking about mass deportations and only talk about deporting violent criminals. Not changing mass deportations, just how they talk about it.

These companies all settled lawsuits with Donald Trump by promising to donate as much as $63 MILLION to his presidential library.

But then, Trump dissolved a library fund.

So where'd the money go?

I'm pressing these CEOs for answers.

Deceptive mailers from a MAGA-aligned group targeting Black voters in Virginia are disgraceful.

Using Civil Rights imagery and invoking Jim Crow to manipulate voters is a shameful tactic straight out of the MAGA playbook.

Vote YES on April 21 to protect fair elections.

I wonder if it's this one that The New Republic used in reporting his $93B spending spree in September. Is he more worried about how he looks than about his out-of-control spending and his propensity for violence?

The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs โ€” including nearly two million children.

The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war.

Priorities.

So when are Republican lawmakers going to admit this president is endangering not just the U.S. but the entire globe and stop him before he does even more damage?

ICYMI: Republicans BLOCKED my bill to fund TSA.

Republicans are punishing travelers and forcing TSA agents to work without pay because they want to cut another blank check for ICE & Border Patrol.

It's shameful.

Why is an aesthetic judgment necessary at all? He's speaking intelligently about something that's important to know. So what if he doesn't live up to your aesthetic standards.

Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

Heโ€™s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

This is a danger to us all.

Norm said, "You have to go physically, now, even if youโ€™re registered, to a voting office to re-register with a passport, a passport card, or a birth certificate." I thought you only had to re-register if you moved?? Why aren't Dems in Congress educating their constituents about the details of this?

Iran's leadership has chosen Mojtaba Khamenei, the previous leader's son and aide, as the new supreme leader. So President Trump's war has succeed inreplacing one Supreme Leader Khamenei with another who is younger, healthier, just as hardline and has close ties to the IRGC.
