This man will not be fired for calling for the murder of American citizens, yet multiple journalists/reporters/teachers lost their job for accurately reporting things Charlie Kirk actually said and stood for.

Lol, “butt snorkelers”.
We have a president who rejects any checks on his power, and who is trying to normalize the view that dictatorship isn’t so bad. An emperor president surrounded by a sycophantic cabinet is dangerous.

Shame on West Point for inviting a draft dodger, who views the US military as merely props to be used for his own glory, to give its commencement speech. With no respect, the tacky wheezing fool wore a campaign ball cap and rambled on about yachts and trophy wives to the bored graduates.

What an odd, telling lie.
Prompted to validate conspiracy theories, which he can't because they're made up, Patel says Trump authorized the Nat. Guard on Jan. 6.
But as the Jan. 6 Committee highlighted, the order came from SecDef in consultation with VP. Trump refused, enjoying the violence on TV.

BARTIROMO: What actually happened on January 6?
PATEL: We now know unequivocally that President Trump lawfully authorized the deployment of the National Guard.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

On the campaign trail last year, Donald Trump said, “I will not cut one penny from Social Security.”
But by slashing Social Security staff and trying to make it harder to apply for benefits, he and Elon Musk are already risking backdoor cuts. Here’s how:

The best estimates we have for the 1770s and 80s put church membership rates in Revolutionary America at about 17%. In the election of 1800, the main criticism of and most widespread fear about Jefferson was that he didn’t believe in God.
Trump invoking Thomas Jefferson for his claim that "we have to bring religion back," that's the same Thomas Jefferson who famously took a razor to the New Testament and sliced out all the supernatural parts

FWIW, here's a 1970 version of that apocryphal Thomas Jefferson prayer that Mike Johnson read in the House of Representatives today. It appeared in The Cross and the Flag, the magazine of Gerald LK Smith, a white supremacist & Christian Nationalist who was America's most notorious antisemite.
