WORTH REPEATING:

Texas has 2.1M undocumented immigrants and Florida has 1.2M.

Minnesota has 130,000.

Don't let anyone tell you this is about immigration.

It never was.

Trump lost MN three times. That is what THIS is about, and it’s impeachable.

If you're the royal family of Saudi Arabia, worth $1.4 trillion, Trump rewards your family with F-35 fighter jets after they ordered the murder of a Washington Post journalist.

If you're a 62-year old couple in America whose premiums will quadruple? Tough luck.

America first?

BREAKING: The Washington Post unleashes a scathing takedown of Trump after he smeared their murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi during a playdate with the brutal Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.

This is just a taste of what the history books will have to say about Donald...

"The United States government often advances its national interests by working with nasty people, and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is one of the nastiest," the paper's editorial board wrote. "It’s one thing, however regrettable, to deal reluctantly with him. President Donald Trump’s performance at the White House Tuesday was something else entirely: weak, crass and of no strategic benefit to America."

The opinion piece was entitled "things happen," a direct quote from Trump's Oval Office meeting yesterday with MBS. When asked about the assassination — in which Khashoggi was murdered and dismembered with a bone saw — Trump dismissively said that "things happen" and that Khashoggi was an "extremely controversial" man who a "lot of people didn't like."

Trump falsely claimed that MBS "knew nothing about that," when in fact he ordered the killing. The president also chided a reporter for trying to "embarrass our guests by asking a question." The disgraceful remarks were a major PR boon to MBS and are rendered all the more shameful by the fact that Khashoggi was a U.S. resident.

"These distortions dishonor Khashoggi’s legacy, stand at odds with the facts and are beneath the office of the president," the Post's editorial board wrote. They explained that Khashoggi's reporting for their outlet allowed him to stand strong against "the Saudi regime’s repressiveness at home and recklessness abroad."

"The reality is that while Trump advocates peace through strength, he showed nothing but debility," they wrote. "No doubt other dictators took note. Legitimizing and defending Mohammed this way will embolden him and his ilk to mistreat not just journalists but any Americans — knowing that they’ll probably face no real consequences."

The board slammed Trump for greeting MBS "cost-free with an honor guard of black horses, herald trumpeters and fighter jets."

"Forgetting Mohammed’s brutality and Khashoggi’s warnings is a choice, and Trump made the wrong one," they concluded.

At the root of all of this horror is, as usual, Trump's insatiable greed. He doesn't want to upset bin Salman because Saudi Arabia has proven to be an incredibly lucrative personal partner for his family. The Saudis poured $2 billion into Jared Kushner's firm — and that's just one of the deals that we know about. Until a full forensic investigation is undertaken, there's no telling how much the Trumps have made by buddying up to a murderous tyrant.

Please retweet and ❤️ to demand a Congressional investigation into Trump's Saudi connections!

This year, Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill gave:

Google an $18 billion tax break.

Amazon a $16 billion tax break.

Microsoft a $12 billion tax break.

Facebook an $11 billion tax break.

Now, they’re writing checks to Trump for his $300 million ballroom.

Gee, I wonder why?

I think they were my favorite costumes from the parade. 🤣

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history.

Over 7 million Americans turned out to No Kings events to stand up against MAGA fascism.

BOOM! MEHDI HASAN DROPS THE MIC:

"The great irony is Trump is the son of an immigrant, grandson of an immigrant, married to an immigrant... in fact, 2 of his 3 wives were immigrants—proving yet again immigrants will do the jobs even Americans aren’t willing to do."

MAGA: Built by immigrants, but walls for everyone else? Clowns.

Republicans are LYING.

Plain and simple.

Undocumented people CANNOT AND WILL NOT receive premium tax credit BY LAW.

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

The gaslighting is wild. THEY control the White House, the House, and the Senate—yet always find a way to blame Democrats for their mess.

The so-called “$1.5 trillion wish list” is about protecting health care, food assistance, and housing.

The fact that this partisan propaganda is plastered on the main page of HUD is outrageous. They’re too busy pointing fingers to do their jobs.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The last government shutdown was when Donald Trump was President.

It cost the American people $11 BILLION.

Almost like there’s a pattern here.

[U.S. Senator John Fetterman @SenFettermanPA]

It’s a sad day for our nation.

Our government shuts down at midnight.

I voted AYE to extend ACA tax credits because I support them—but I won’t vote for the chaos of shuttering our government.

My vote was our country over my party.

Together, we must find a better way forward.

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Donald Trump just shut down the government.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

BREAKING: Oklahoma State Superintendent @RyanWalters_ just announced that every single high school in the state will now be required to have a Turning Point USA chapter.

Ask yourself: how would the right react if a Democratic superintendent forced every school to host a Black Lives Matter club, a Sunrise Movement chapter, an ANTIFA club, or a Planned Parenthood student group? They would call it indoctrination — and they’d be right.

This is deeply concerning. Public schools should not be turned into mandatory recruitment hubs for any political organization.

[Jasmine Crockett @JasmineForUS]

Let me go ahead and send my thoughts and prayers to all that plan to take their medical advice from someone who I am old enough to remember also told people to inject themselves with bleach.

Why is ignorance being elevated while intelligence is being denigrated?
