Trump: 'I love getting even with people'
YouTube video by CNN

The essence of Donald Trump. This is his moral core. It isn't pretty. He's even worse now than he was then. He lives for getting even, especially when he's the one who should apologize. Trump: During a 1992 interview with Charlie Rose, Donald Trump loyalty.

George has changed parties. Good. I hope millions upon millions of other republicans find their way out of that fascist stink that is the republican party now.
I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.
We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.
We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

Today would be a great day to release ALL the Epstein files, Bondi. You can't redact what is already out there. And this is the mild stuff. Trump hardly knew Ghislaine? Not true.

Of course they want to go in, like Trump they have no soul, nor morals. That also applies to the republican toads in Congress.

MacCALLUM: You have about 100,000 dying from drug overdoses, most of those drugs from from Venezuela and other places
CROW: That's actually not true. The majority of the deaths by drugs in America are the result of meth and fentanyl. Almost none of that comes from Venezuela

Denmark’s PM, Mette Frederiksen responds to Trump:
“The US has no right to annex any of the three nations in the Danish kingdom…I would therefore strongly urge the US to stop the threats against a historically close ally…and another people who have said very clearly that they are not for sale.”

A good man has served his state faithfully. How lucky Minnesota has been to have his leadership! The people must come together to continue their progress forward. 💙
Minnesota has to come first - always.
Today, I’m proud of the work we’ve done to make Minnesota the best place to live and raise kids.
I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.

Himes: "I was delighted to hear that Tom Cotton, chairmen of the Senate Intel Committee, has been in regular contact with the admin. I've had zero outreach and no D I'm aware of has. So apparently we're now in a world where the legal obligation to keep Congress informed only applies to your party."

He found someone female as evil as he is? Like Kirk? Where do these tunnel dwellers find each other? That's not happening without WWIII. They might not care about that, and honestly, if it removed homo sapiens and let life begin again in 50,000 years? Burn it down, we lost, unworthy of sentience.

Well, after all, Honduras doesn’t have the world’s largest oil reserves. That and we all know Trump never tells the truth about anything he’s doing or will do. Before, during or after he does it.
The indictment doesn’t mention oil or fentanyl. Just cocaine. (After he just pardoned the president of Honduras)

You mean out in the open? Usually we do that kind of crap the Kissinger way, out of public sight and very nasty, we’re just now skipping the subterfuge and doing it like Putin, out in the open. Shameful moments in our history continue to accumulate. Less civilized, not more. Entire world it seems.
This is a foolish question but how often does US Law Enforcement get involved in international regime changes

For Vance? With THIS Senate? As much as I want them gone, we need them ALL gone, or turned into the noisy backbenchers they have traditionally been. Else this stretches a lot longer than it should or the world bursts into flames.
I suspect two of the hot words for 2026 will be “impeach” and “remove”

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.
This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

Erroneously thinking you've taken intelligence tests, when the tests were administered because doctors are (repeatedly) concerned you have dementia and may pose a danger to yourself and others, is probably yet another sign that you actually do have dementia.
