The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Seriously? Not a single conjunction made the cut? No preposition was safe enough to share? Adjectives were too sensitive? No adverbs? No interjections?…Donald thinks his base is stupid. They haven’t done much in the past decade to prove him wrong. Last chance, maga. Tired of getting played yet?

Trump on Friday had his name posted on the wall of the Kennedy Center. Obviously Trump had the letters made for his name to be put on the Kennedy Center before Thursday's vote. The vote was a charade to cover for what Trump had already planned to do.

A former Republican Senator says, “tax the rich like me,” while also supporting spending restraint.

“The largest source of additional tax revenues is also probably the most compelling for fairness and social stability.

I was not expecting a guilty verdict. I hope Judge Dugan is successful on appeal. I’m concerned about this emboldening this lawless administration.

Everything Trump does seems to be either a scam, a con job, a fraud, a lie, or pure bullshit.
He takes Congressionally approved funds from one area and reallocates them to another, all to mislead the nation into believing he's providing the troops with something extra.

Release the files and let the chips fall where they may. We’re not worried about party, but there’s one main character who’s been gaslighting and trying to prevent the release. That screams a lot of things, but innocence isn’t one of them.

🚨New photos just released by House Dems.

This is a statue outside the Kennedy Center of its namesake.

They can propagandize the name temporarily for their own vanity, but he will never be as much a statesman as John F. Kennedy.
