It’s worse than that….. No administration has more government officials with connections to Russia, and China, than any other, in the history of this country, with the chief executive being the most compromised…..

We have a deranged lunatic in the White House, and the scary part is, his entire administration knows it, and they just don’t care….. They’re purposely putting this country in grave danger, just for their own benefit…..

Russia is directing the US on Ukraine’s “surrender” to end the war. Agent Krasnov is doing his job.
Fiona Hill, geopolitical strategist: 'The US is giving Russia tremendous influence over Europe'
According to the former Trump adviser, 'This White House wants Ukraine to capitulate to Russian demands to end this war, without proper consideration of all the factors at play.'

"The motion to dismiss comes after it was revealed last week at a court hearing that the CBP agent who shot Martinez multiple times had bragged about it in messages to other officers."

I am not going to put what he said here, because it's that vile. Disgusting pigs.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

On a human level, I feel absolutely awful for Caroline Kennedy who lost a father as a child, who lost her only brother as a young man, and is now in the process of losing her daughter. Just really really awful.
