This is an inspiration for a really phenomenal piece of writing FROM me.

Not sure when I will get it written and revised and edited well enough to be published but, make no mistake: Barack Obama inspired it and ME!

Excellent editorial written by the minister who is shown being assaulted by ICE in the photo.

Honestly? We should have the same intolerance for cruelty and torture when it comes to our for-profit prisons. We have let so many things happen with so little resistance.
Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

The analysis of the hand this administration is playing in the revelations of the Epstein files by Amanda Roberts and her brother is so heart-rending.

This "administration" is proving their goal is #CrueltyIsThePoint.

On one hand polygraphs are pseudoscientific BS. On the other hand these guys believe they work so they're definitely hiding something.

NEW: FBI Director Kash Patel granted waivers to Deputy Director Dan Bongino and two newly hired senior FBI staff, exempting them from polygraph exams normally required to gain access to America’s most sensitive classified information, officials said.

So, just what does it mean to "bring down affordability"?

Have they considered the "strain" being put on the housing industry when teams of masked agents are arresting whole roofing crews on their work sites, accusing them of being undocumented?
HUD Secretary Scott Turner: "I want to get to the root: over 12 million illegal aliens came into our country, which has put a great strain on our housing supply and affordability."

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:

✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.

Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

It's all impeachable activity. And in fact impeachment is the only way we end it.

She needs to ask Bacon if he would pursue impeachment, because if he would not, then what his words are meaningless.
November 14, 2025 at 4:54 PM
Oh, he would "ask him"! Well, then!

I am sure he'll hop right to it!

Why didn't someone else think of that?!
Bacon: "When the president gives orders to Pam Bondi and our law enforcement arms of the federal government, it undercuts the credibility of our law enforcement. I don't think it's appropriate for him to do it."

Openly corrupt. And Congress won’t even bother to investigate. This is what America looks like without a Congress.👇

The Pedo-Protector Prez ordered a brand new distraction & the Dept. of War (actually the Dept. of Defense: a mini-distraction within a distraction, no extra charge!) is delivering by expanding our ongoing unlawful policy of randomly bombing the tiny boats of fishermen with no due process whatsoever.

Trump handed Argentina a forty billion dollar bailout funded by American taxpayers.

📌 Argentina gives residents and tourists free healthcare: medical, hospital, dental, emergency care, the whole thing.

Our healthcare is bleeding us dru—premiums are skyrocketing!

I would like to hear Megyn's explanation for how someone "could pass", but still "look legal"?

I'll bet it'll boil down to who is CLAIMING she's legal while engaging in sex with her because she could "pass" for being younger. Pedophiles are attracted bc of looks.

ICE reality: arrest dishwashers or guys selling tamales or ladies taking care of kids. Whatever. As long as they’re brown and won’t shoot back.

So now they are criminalizing immigrants among us who are gainfully (or at least regularly) employed?

Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

Megyn Kelly is not just problematic in her defense of Trump and Epstein…she is emblematic of the decline in humanity infesting the Republican Party. The double standard for the definition of a child. The excuses…the rot at the center of the GOP.

Russia’s overnight strikes on Kyiv make clear that Russia intends to press on with war.

In Berlin today we discussed how to increase our support to Ukraine while building up Europe’s defence.
