Don and the Massachusetts Military Support Foundation have been helping US Coast Guard families make ends meet by distributing thousands of pounds of food since the #TrumpShutdown began. The longer Republicans drag out this shutdown, the more hard-working families will suffer.
The man these kids are harassing is a Vietnam War veteran, who holds ceremonies at Arlington, to honor Native Americans who died, in service.
Where did these kids get the idea that belittling Native Americans is ok?
Look at their hats.

This WH admin has made having a functional understanding of race in America one of the most important core competencies for a political journalist to have, yet @CBSNews hasn’t assigned a *single* black journalist to cover the 2020 election.
Unacceptable in 2019. Try again.
6 months ago I asked Congress to subpoena Trump's Helsinki interpreter. 14,000+ people retweeted that call. Today's it's sounding like *exactly* what Congress should be moving to do given the breaking news from The Washington Post. Trump's straight up acting like a Kremlin asset.
Due to the #TrumpShutdown, 1,150 HUD federal rental assistance contracts with property owners were not renewed. Over 340,000 elderly and disabled veterans depend on rental assistance. https://t.co/nzYOL6SLFd
Guess who’s still getting paid during the #TrumpShutdown— the undocumented immigrants who work at Trump’s hotels.
That’s right — he’s holding the paychecks of #FederalWorkers hostage, to pay for a #BorderWall which is meant to keep out the people he uses for cheap labor.
Shout-out to the network news executives who let the president lie to their audiences because they were afraid that if they turned him down he would attack them. https://t.co/ibbQkq2NCH
Over 7,000 people in Massachusetts have been sent home or are working without pay during the #TrumpShutdown. Until @realDonaldTrump re-opens the government, I'm donating my salary to @HIASrefugees, a nonprofit that helps refugees and makes our country stronger in the process.
FBI families will spend Christmas without a paycheck. This president promised Mexico would pay for the wall but innocent people are now paying the price for another lie. Our thoughts are with hardworking public servants and their families.
Old enough to remember the time in 2018 when Trump/Ryan/McConnell shut down the government because we couldn’t afford $3.4B for health care for low-income kids. But please, lecture us about how spending $5B on an ineffective wall is in our national interest. #TrumpShutdown
Let me get this straight,
This con man sold the Wall as something “Mexico” would pay for but now he’s making 800,000 federal employees go without paychecks OVER CHRISTMAS if US taxpayers won’t pay for it?
Next time we have a gov shutdown, Congressional salaries should be furloughed as well.
It’s completely unacceptable that members of Congress can force a government shutdown on partisan lines & then have Congressional salaries exempt from that decision.
Have some integrity.
Dear @realDonaldTrump: Some facts.
-There is no big crisis at the border
-Violent crime dropped last year
-Property crime dropped last year
-Studies show immigrants, both documented and undocumented, commit less crimes than native born Americans
Time to stop the #TrumpShutdown
