Check the real facts Jim. Stop listening to actual fake news. | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Democrats do not listen to Trump to get information about Trump. So now, Trump is the beacon of truth. Got it. I apologize it advance that the following is out of order, but it is what it is. Florida Hurricanes; Trump has claimed that the federal government is ignoring the storm’s victims, especially ones in Republican areas, and that the government is handing out only $750 in aid (in fact, the initial emergency payment for food and groceries is $750, but there are multiple grants available for home rebuilding up to a total of $42,500, the upper limit set by Congress). He has also claimed—falsely—that the Federal Emergency Management Agency is out of money to help because the administration spent all its money on Ukraine and undocumented immigrants. What do you think would happen to FEMA under Trump? What do you think would happen to NOAA under Trump? Trump secretly sent COVID test kits for the personal use of Putin, of Russia, an adversary to the United States when he was talking about Americans should be putting bleach in their blood and he would not allow a cruise ship dock in California because it would have made his numbers look bad. Trump suggested that the U.S. soldiers who sustained traumatic brain injuries (TBI) when Iran attacked an Iraqi base where they were stationed were not truly injured, but simply had “headaches.” Trump’s statement brought back to light a 2021 CBS report by Catherine Herridge and Michael Kaplan that found the injured soldiers had not been recognized with a Purple Heart, awarded to service members wounded or killed in the line of duty, despite qualifying for it. This slight meant they were denied the medical benefits that come with that military decoration. The soldiers told Herridge and Kaplan that they were pressured to downplay their injuries to avoid undercutting Trump’s attempt to keep the casualty numbers in that incident low. With the story back in the news, Kaplan posted that after the report, the Army awarded the soldiers the Purple Hearts they deserved. Donald Trump says it’s “very dangerous” for Kamala Harris voters to identify themselves because they’ll “get hurt.” Is that a threat?? Continued in next message... |
