76% of Trump’s budget goes to the military and police. He’s gutting social safety nets while giving over $1T to the Pentagon — which hasn’t passed an audit in 6 years. He never cared about fraud and waste. He cares about having a militarized oligarchy.

Pam Bondi lobbied for Qatar & a private prison company, got paid $115K/month, then failed to disclose it during her AG confirmation. Now she’s gutted foreign lobbying enforcement under FARA and signed off on $400m planes. The corruption isn’t even subtle anymore.

Qatar offered the jet directly to Trump, not the DoD. His team says the Air Force will “accept” it to dodge the Emoluments Clause, then donate it to his library so he can use it personally later. Using the AF as a loophole proves he’s just laundering a jet through the Pentagon.

To be clear - even the city of Nashville has no proof anyone ICE has arrested was a violent criminal or a gang member. (And due process is a thing) All anyone has is ICE’s word, backed up by @GovBillLee & Blackburn. Maybe the media could point that out instead of parroting their talking points?

David Geier, who has been chosen by RFK, Jr. to lead the federal study on autism, was previously disciplined for administering puberty blocking drugs to autistic children without proper oversight!! This is a form of nonconsensual sterilization! This is outrageous! #MomSky #Voices4Victory

David Geier is RFK, Jr.’s pick to lead a federal study on autism. His father Mark Geier (1948-2025) was a de-licensed physician who wrongly testified in more than 90 cases that vaccines caused injury or illness. He had his license to practice medicine suspended or revoked in EVERY STATE. (Cont.)

If anyone you know in ICE tells you they’re “just following orders” remind them of the following: - they can read - they’re aware of the SCOTUS ruling and numerous injunctions around the illegality of what they’re doing - feigning ignorance will not soften their place in history…or in America.

U.S. immigration detention is a profit-driven enterprise. Private corporations like GEO Group and CoreCivic receive billions in federal contracts, earning daily revenue per detainee. The more migrants detained, the greater the profit—turning human suffering into a business model.

Many native-born American immigration lawyers have received official letters from the government demanding that they self-deport. Apparently DHS used a list of aliens including many who listed their attorneys’ contact info by way of a care-of address. The country’s in the very best of hands.
