I do not feel like I did in 2016. I feel like I did when the plane struck the second tower. We all realized what was happening. @chrysta10.bsky.social ๐ฆ
USAID is not some free agent that spends money how it wants. It runs programs as directed by Congress. Our Secretary of State used to defend USAID as key to our national security strategy - as most Republicans did. Now he's suddenly got a different view.
They can't spin this away. The Trump administration contacted air traffic controllers, offering buyouts to leave their jobs. It's a very easily proven fact.
Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy dancing naked in front of a window and getting his hairy nipple licked on reality TV.
This is who Trump put in charge of the countryโs flight safety.
Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch.
President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.
Trump's government funding shutdown - Medicaid, cancer research, elementary schools - is cataclysmic by itself.
But together with the pardon of the rioters, the firing of the IGs, etc. it's a brazen, transparent effort to seize power.
Let's start acting like it.
Ambassador Caroline Kennedyโs statement to the US Senate on RFKJrโs nomination for HHS Secretary
This is a reading of a letter she just sent to Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions
Iโm so proud of my courageous mother, whoโs lived a life of dignity, integrity and service.
sheโs the kindest funnest smartest youโll ever meet.
Two students were shot and the gunman killed himself at Antioch High School in Nashville, Tennessee the day after Donald Trump shut down the Office of Gun Violence Prevention.
Jared Kushnerโs father paid a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, secretly recorded it, and then showed the video to his own sister for revenge & intimidation.
He got caught.
He admitted it.
He got convicted.
Trump pardoned him.
And today he made him our next Ambassador to France.
The worst people on the planet are being placed in positions of tremendous influence and power.
And itโs fucking disgusting.
