A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem.
Donald Trump won’t let it open.
Here is why.
The family that owns the old bridge stands to lose business when the new one opens. So in January, they gave one million dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC.
Weeks later they met with Trump’s Commerce Secretary.
He called Trump.
Hours after that, Trump announced he would block the new bridge. The opening was set for June 12. It got canceled the day before. The bridge sits there finished and empty.
Now here is the part that should make every taxpayer angry.
Canada paid for the entire bridge.
Every dollar. And the United States already owns half of it for free. Trump is holding up a bridge we got for nothing, to protect a donor who wrote him a check, while picking a fight with our closest ally and biggest trading partner.
This is corruption in plain sight.
A billionaire pays, and the President delivers. American workers and businesses pay the price.
Open the bridge. A government should work for the people, not for whoever writes the biggest check.

Hey MAGA,
You have to agree that this petty shit, trump covering up the name of the Kennedy Center with a tarp since he had to take his own name down, really makes him look like a little bitch.
A tiny, whiny, pathetic little bitch.
He’s been catholic, Mormon, Baptist, anti-Trump, pro-Trump, pro-immigrant, anti-immigrant, anti-Iran war, pro-Iran war…
The man has no identity outside of opportunism.
The man is @marcorubio and he is a disgrace.
This agreement is far worse than I expected. To reopen the strait— a strait that was open before the war— we and our partners are transferring billions to the autocrats. We get nothing else— no elimination of enriched uranium, missiles, or terrorist support. And to add one final gift, we agree to not help the Iranian people pursue their democratic aspirations. Just incredible.
The Tartan Army’s on a charm offensive and their American hosts are loving it.
But beyond beer & viral videos, there’s charity work. The Tartan Army is giving Hasbro Children’s Hospital the biggest single donation it’s ever received - money that will go towards treating cancer.
@atrupar@RoslinResists SO FUCKING EMBARRASSING!!!! 😖
It’s absolutely disgusting what this pig is allowed to get away with bc our Congress and media are a total joke. We will remember! 🔥
@allenanalysis 😭 I love Mamdani so much!! Every single day I see something he’s done to life people up. He is what every leader should strive to be. The best part about it is it appears completely natural. The man is lead by his heart and it shows.
Markwayne Mullin had the FDA delete warnings about the dangers of kratom, an addictive and sometimes lethal drug found in gas stations.
Mullin holds an up to $1 million stake in a major kratom company.
So the ballroom is a fiasco, the reflecting pool is a fiasco, the Iran war is a fiasco—the Trump administration is a fiasco.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
