No bowl of shamrock for Donald Trump!
In just a few short weeks Trump has shown himself to be more ruthless, more unaccountable, and more reckless than anybody expected.
He's threatened ethnic cleansing in Gaza, ordered that people in the US be rounded up and detained in concentration camps in Guantánamo Bay, launched a massive attack on the rights of trans people, and has given corporations free reign to destroy our land, oceans, and climate.

Why is this important?
Donald Trump has started his presidency threatening to forcibly remove all Palestinians from Gaza and turn it into a holiday resort, he has doubled down in his support for war criminal Netanyahu, and has resumed sending heavy bombs to Israel for them to use against people in Gaza.
He is also causing chaos back in the US:
He is also causing chaos back in the US:
- He has launched a massive attack on trans rights putting thousands of people in serious danger of their lives.
- He has attacked hundreds of thousands of workers, slashing jobs and allowing billionaire Elon Musk to fire entire departments.
- He has ordered that people who live and work in the US without specific documentation are to be rounded up and detained in the infamous Guantánamo Bay prison.
- He is dismantling regulations on corporations that keep people's food and water safe.
- He is ramping up polluting fossil fuel extraction, undoing decades of slow progress.
- He is removing all information about trans people, climate change, and public health from government websites.
It is unthinkable that any Irish politician would go to the White House this St. Patrick's day to shake Trump's hand and we are calling on you Micheál Martin to boycott the White House this March.
