The Trump administration continues to show the depth of their corruption, lack of transparency and how they are grifting off of the office.

Trump promised to go after the “worst of the worst.” He lied and is now working to strip citizenship from Americans. Every U.S. citizen should be outraged by this. If he can do this to naturalized citizens, he can certainly do it to you.
