The @WhiteHouse has been hosting special events in observance of Holy Week—acknowledging Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the Cross and His victory over the grave. It was a privilege to be invited to be part of a prayer service and dinner on Wednesday evening and to bring an Easter message to the White House staff in a service today. @POTUS@realDonaldTrump couldn’t have been more clear about the meaning of Easter when he shared, "Through His death, we are forgiven of our sins. Through His Resurrection, we have hope of eternal life.” Amen! These events were organized by the White House Faith Office. It is such a blessing to have an Administration that recognizes the importance of faith and isn’t afraid to call on the name of Jesus Christ. God bless them!
Alligator Alcatraz cost American taxpayers $1.2 billion and as of today, it's shutting down for good.
The Trump administration also spent $700 million of taxpayer dollars on seven prison warehouses they're now trying to offload.
And the Trump administration quietly transferred $352 million of taxpayer funds that were meant for Secret Service to fund his Golden Ballroom.
This, all of it, is WASTE, FRAUD AND ABUSE.
Remember in November. 🇺🇸
The irony of Republicans controlling all branches of government while
bankrupting the country, starting a war, sending money to fraudulent programs, violating the Constitution, giving corporations immunity...
but arguing that the biggest problem we have is “stolen elections.”
One scary reason why MAGA cult members and media are repeating Donald's obvious lies about the reflecting pool:
If they admit he is lying about something so comparatively small, it opens the door towards admitting he is lying about almost everything.
Lots of “the election was rigged and stolen” vibes in Trump’s claim that his failures on the Reflecting Pool are the result of “vandalism.” Pretty similar playbook - just keep repeating the absurd lie, get Fox, Newsmax & right-wing podcasters to run with it, and the cult buys it.
BREAKINGNEWS Trump lied by claiming the vandalism was done by a knife and the contractors aren't at fault. Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has 24 hour live feed. There is no evidence of any such claim. Trump should be held accountable for lying. 🚨
🚨BREAKING: A FOIA request reportedly shows a Hoffman Estates (Chicago suburb) police officer, Thomas Lapak, is also illegally working as an ICE agent.
Residents are demanding answers, raising serious concerns about how a local police officer can also be involved in federal immigration enforcement.
Residents pay the salaries of their local police officers to protect the community, enforce local laws, and serve the public.
When an officer is simultaneously involved in federal immigration enforcement, residents have every right to ask whether local policing decisions are being influenced by federal immigration priorities.
Community members repeatedly requested supervisors to provide Lapak’s badge number, but were reportedly denied each time.
They are now calling on COP Kasia Cawley to publicly address concerns, regarding Officer Thomas Lapak, provide transparency about his role, and report any potential violations occurring within the Hoffman Estates Police Department.
And they are also calling on @StateRepCrespo, and Mayor Bill McLeod, to address allegations that the Illinois Trust Act is being violated.
Regardless of where you stand on immigration policy, everyone should agree…
Law enforcement cannot effectively protect the public, if the public no longer trusts whose interests they are serving.
@ChristianPost@Franklin_Graham Why should we care what Graham says? He is a divisive man who supports Trump. The Christian Post needs to reject him. Titus 3:10.
What the administration is doing here investigating “The View” is so fucking wrong. Too many Americans look at headlines like this and yawn. This is the President of the United States attacking a free press, trying to silence speech. This is utterly un-American. It’s fascism.👇
In the old USSR, people could be arrested for photographing bridges, tunnels, etc. A repressive and paranoid regime assumed the photographers must be spies and saboteurs. Americans laughed at such petty tyranny. Nothing like that could happen in their free country! Until now.
We now have undercover, plain clothes Feds, Park police, Oklahoma police, Secret Service, & the National Guard, at the reflecting pool.
All because our President is a liar that takes NO RESPONSIBILITY.
Great job America 👏
The Vice President of the United States says he doesn't understand international diplomacy like Jared (Trumps son in law) & Steve (Real estate guy)
We're being led by fucking idiots.
The Iran war is never ending.
Today’s episode of “you can’t make this up:”
Trump set out to prove voter fraud in the voting machines. And found not a single instance of fraud, so they’re pretending the study never happened
This should be on the front page of every newspaper in America.
Trump’s DOJ just shut down a federal investigation into a coal company owned by Sen. Jim Justice, one of his closest allies, after it racked up tens of thousands of alleged violations for dumping dangerous chemicals into our waterways. A veteran federal prosecutor with 24 years on the job said he had never seen anything like it.
The man who killed the case was Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal defense lawyer and current Acting Attorney General. This is the same guy who just gave Trump, his family, and his companies permanent immunity from IRS audits. Now Trump wants the Senate to make Blanche’s appointment permanent too.
Equal justice under law was never supposed to come with exceptions for the President’s friends.
The pattern isn’t subtle: protect Trump’s friends, prosecute his critics, and get rewarded with more power. That is corruption, plain and simple. Todd Blanche must not be confirmed.
