JUST IN: DOJ confirms Trump asserted executive privilege to shield more than 4,100 documents form police and lawmakers suing him over the Jan. 6 riot.

Again, since certain people can't wrap their heads around this pretty simple concept:

If you voted for Kamala, you helped Kamala.

If you voted for Trump, you helped Trump.

If you voted 3rd Party, you helped Trump.

If you stayed home, you helped Trump.

When this shit ends, there not only needs to be a review of officer actions, but a comprehensive check of their previous record.

ICE use of Border Control agents is disgusting. Most of these agents are criminals with a badge, running free rein on innocent people. Just like the prison guards ICE has hired. They are thugs and losers.

Kudlow is just lying to his viewers: "Unemployment is at rock bottom. These are real facts. I'm not making this stuff up. Unemployment claims are as low as they're ever going to get."

He’s NOT a man!
Certainly NOT an honorable man, but a depraved man child!
Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

cfFPOTUS47’s EGO, Vanity, & Hubris IS beyond imagination!!
Ending free entry on MLK Day & Juneteenth, and shifting it to his birthday, is wrong—the it says these holidays are unimportant but it’s also sad that Trump’s ego would need this. www.sfgate.com/national-par...
National parks change prioritizes Trump birthday over days honoring Black people
Free entrance days at national parks no longer include MLK Day and Juneteenth.

NEVER 👎 in my 75 years have I witnessed such COWARDICE as I have witnessed by so many completely 🪼 SPINELESS RETrumplican congress persons!!

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.

Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.

When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Sauer saying something is unconstitutional because it "would be unconstitutional under Justice Scalia's dissent" is a remarkably cogent statement of the Roberts Court's approach to precedent.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

The petulant man-child attacking an intelligent woman because it's all he has.

The president repeatedly derided ABC News’ Rachel Scott today. After she asked Trump whether he would order defense secretary Pete Hegseth to release the video of a “double-tap” strike...

This IS TERRIFYING!
Precisely what Stalin & Mussolini & Hitler DID in their climbs to (transitory) omnipotence!
This on the heels of Bradley confirming there was a “kill list” is very disturbing.
Bondi’s list + Hegseth’s kill list = Duterte playbook.
🚨This is how authoritarian rule starts: lists, labels, and permission for violence.
🚨Pam Bondi just ordered the FBI to compile a list of American "extremists" and to establish a bounty fund to reward tipsters, per DOJ memo leaked to me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/leak-fbi-l...

IF DJT is our free 🌎 salvation, then we be in a heap of Trouble!!!
US Amb to NATO: We are the only world superpower (..) especially, President Trump is the only one - that can bring both sides to the table and work with them to mediate a resolution. There is no one else that can do it.

If US walks away, if President Trump walks away, likelihood of peace diminishes

The Supreme Court is working hard to turn this country into a despot's dreamscape—while making it nigh impossible for good people to make lasting change for the better.

Those of us who begged folks (and national media) to put SCOTUS before everything else in 2016 are in an endless Cassandrian hell.

This Supreme Court is so corrupt: several in the MAGA majority illegally accepted gifts from those with cases before the court, Thomas’ wife was aiding the J6 insurrectionists, and Kavanaugh was never properly investigated for his drunken sexual assault of Christine Blasey Ford.

You’re not being hyperbolic at all. It’s not just your country that needs to be worried either.
