Trump is a toxic waste dump of the worst of human character. His greed, corruption, ego, stupidity, arrogance, cruelty, prejudice, and active contempt for virtue, the law and people are manifest daily in ways that are destroying our institutions and our country. And he is getting worse daily.

I don’t believe the U.S. taxpayer should continue to arm Netanyahu’s government with deadly military equipment.
I believe Netanyahu is a war criminal and that his government has committed genocide in Gaza.
This doesn't make me antisemitic. (I’m Jewish, by the way.)

Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen.
