Absolutely lazy for the White House to blame a random staffer for the racist AI post. Trump posted it himself in the middle of the night, as he has many, many times. Plus, they’ve posted plenty of other offensive shit—remember when he used AI to show himself napalming Chicago?

America sees the brutal violence ICE and Border Patrol are inflicting on our people and won’t allow it to continue. Trump and Noem underestimate the American people—as they say in Minneapolis, “We’ve got eyes/so stop your lies.”

Everyone in the White House involved in any way with that vile, sickening racist Trump post must be fired immediately: everyone in the communications department, everyone in the press office, every deputy chief of staff, everyone involved up and down the line. Not one more tax dollar for this filth.

If you haven't seen the now-deleted clip that Trump posted on Truth Social—during Black History Month, no less—I urge you to take a moment to reflect on what our country truly stands for. It’s important we don’t lose hope.

Of course Trump’s DOJ isn’t releasing all the Epstein files—because they further implicate Trump and his friends. They’d rather break the law, lie to the American people, and protect corrupt pedophiles than let the truth come out. The real question is: will Congress actually do something about it?
