Americans are distraught, their soc safety net, NAT/FIN/personal security, access to disaster relief funds... have been decimated due to: #TrumpRegime.

#FEMA proposes🚨raising the threshold for states to qualify for public asst, effectively quadrupling: amount of damage a comm must suffer in order to receive fed aid +reduces share of recovery costs the fed govt will pay, limiting: types of FACs eligible for asst &🚨denying all major disaster DECLs for snowstorms.

Trump's eldest son Donald Trump Jr has come up with a new bus venture & it's only meant for the super-rich. And it will not be in FL but at stone's throw from the WH -- an invite-only members club in DC. To become a member, you need to have 2 things. Only💰won't suffice as the membership is limited only to invitation.

The club will cater to business & tech moguls looking to cozy up to the Trump admin.

This is #corruption on steroids.

Trump’s admin has lined the WH driveway with posters featuring migrants’ mugshots as the Trump broadcasts his #immigration crackdown.

The WH lawn has been lined with mugshot-style posters bearing the faces of arrested illegal migrants: feature photos of the migrants +apparent crimes, & WH’s logo: at the bottom of each poster.

This is NK style propaganda; the #TrumpRegime is distracting from the crises it created: #tariffs, #lawlessness, #firings, #deportations...

Media Matters for AmericaCallers to conservative radio shows voice their displeasure with Trump’s tariffsConservative radio listeners have been vocal about their displeasure as President Donald Trump’s tariffs created economic uncertainty and sent stock markets plunging. Though many right-wing media figures have dismissed the stock market volatility and praised Trump’s tariff policy, some listeners of right-wing radio shows were displeased, calling in to pronounce it “reckless,” “sloppy,” and “the single biggest, dumbest move in political history.” Callers have previously complained about Trump’s gutting of federal programs and jobs, comments about Ukraine, approach to birthright citizenship, attacks on Canada, and comments about Gaza, among other topics.

“CBS News has obtained a list of 365 fed grant programs halted this week by the #DOJ, disrupting programs to help victims of hate crime & sex trafficking, children who've suffered violence, & refugees. The Dept also paused programs aimed at reducing school shootings, efforts to combat dom terror…”

The MSM normalizes the #TrumpRegime, as if destroying the nation’s moral fabric & social safety net won’t harm Americans, esp POC, children, IMMs, & women.

When will Congress grow a pair limit the WH’s role in the global #economy?

How much worse does this need to get for Congress to find its spine?”

Americans are aghast at how fast he’s destroyed the economy, national security, and their families’ finances, wellbeing, & futures:

“72% of Americans think Trump’s policies will cause a recession, acc to the latest Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll.

Only 39% approve of Trump on the economy
A mere 34% approve of Trump’s tariffs

53% say the economy has grown worse since Trump took office in Jan.”

Let’s make sure Trump doesn’t make it through the year. He must be forced to resign or be impeached.

Some recently fired WKRs: uninsured.

"An ATTY recruited to the Comm Dept's CHIPS program in 2023, Waterfield had felt she was part of something monumental -that'd move the country forward: rebuilding America's semi IDU.

Instead, nearly 2 months after being fired in the Trump admin's purge -she's enmeshed in a bureaucratic mess over her #healthcare coverage. It's a mess that's left her fearing her entire family may now be uninsured."

Danielle Waterfield was fired, rehired and fired again from her job at CHIPS for America, part of the Department of Commerce. Now, she fears her health insurance was cut off weeks ago, even though she was told otherwise:

"The VA invented physician assistants. They run a scholarship program for them. But they don't hire them in sufficient numbers,🚨often forcing PAs to give back their scholarship💰.

PAs could help with the #Veterans Admin’s staffing challenges. But though the VA pays for training scholarships, PAs have found it hard to get work there.

The #VA today remains the single largest employer of PAs in the US, ~1/3 of whom are vets.

The Justice Department told attorneys in its Consumer Protection Branch—which prosecutes elder fraud, servicemember fraud, opioid cases, & much more—that the branch would be disbanding in Sept.

Trump has also ordered weaker enforcement of retail investor protections for cryptocurrency assets at the DOJ & the SEC; the president & his family have stakes in digital asset companies and have issued their own meme coins.
