Reminder that Trump is floating cuts to Social Security and Medicare — supposedly to address the debt — yet supports extending his tax cuts for the rich, adding $4.6 trillion to the deficit. This isn't about the debt. It’s about doing the bidding of his wealthy donors.

President Biden is not the first U.S. President to cut off weapons to Israel. President Ronald Reagan used the power of American arms several times to influence Israeli war policy, at different points ordering warplanes and cluster munitions to be delayed or withheld.

Trump told oil execs he'll end electric car incentives for $1 billion in donations
