@RobMelanson5@EdKrassen Nope, but he hired on people he had used before for his personal properties, without having multiple bids put in, which is not the legal process required.
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people.
We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice.

The Trump administration’s attempt to indict six Democratic lawmakers was an outrageous abuse of power and perhaps its most brazen attack on freedom of speech so far.
We should all be grateful to the citizens serving on this grand jury who saw through what the Trump Justice Department tried to do and stood up for the rule of law.
Every Republican lawmaker should condemn this effort to criminalize the activity of a coequal branch of government. Today, it was Democrats being targeted by Trump — but any of them could be next.
Five years ago, an armed mob stormed the United States Capitol. Inspired by lies and hatred spewed by Donald Trump, they used brutal violence and intimidation in an attempt to overturn a free and fair election. And since returning to office, Trump pardoned the insurrectionists who betrayed their country.
January 6, 2021, showed us how fragile our democracy is. We, the people, must fight back against Donald Trump and his cronies as they sow chaos and fear among the American people. We cannot stand idly by as they strip our fundamental freedoms, enrich themselves on the back of working people, and destroy our reputation around the globe. And we must continue to do the hard work to ensure our democracy survives.
Let me be clear: Certifying the presidential election on January 6, 2025, was one of the most challenging moments in my career. Yet I never — not for one second — considered any other action. Because the American people had spoken. And in our nation, the power is and must always be with the people.
Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured.
Trump then pardoned the attackers.
He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.
