To pay for his foreign war of choice, Trump just proposed even more cuts to food assistance, housing, and health care. President Trump’s budget puts working families last.

Today, #Ukraine commemorates the #Chornobyl catastrophe. In April 1986, any mention of the disaster was quickly suppressed by Moscow. People paid with their lives for the delayed response. In february 2025, a russian drone struck the anti-radiation shield over the reactor unit 4. 📹
