Gavin Newsom: “ You will not have a country if he rigs this election — you will have a president who will be running for a third term
He is wrecking this country, wrecking the economy. He's a lawless president. Wake up, America — wake up to what's going on”

Thou shalt not stand idly by whilst a dictator murders civilians and steals ballot boxes so he can rig the next election because he needs to protect billionaire pedophiles (himself).

They won’t reveal who Alex Pretti’s murderer is because he’s probably a pardoned J6 proud boy.

In a blistering ruling, a Bush-appointed conservative federal judge said that ICE "has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence."
Congress must not give one more cent to this rogue agency.

Collins: I'm not sure I've ever been in a cabinet meeting covering the president, where he did not take questions from reporters. He called on a handful of cabinet secretaries, but one that he notably did not call on was Kristi Noem

Frey: "In Mpls, we heard them say they'll end this siege when we hand over voter rolls. The DOJ is being used as a weapon. They're investigating me and several other local elected officials not because we've done something wrong because we speak on behalf of our constituents.

Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers.
Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024.
And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary.
The system is rigged.

While Gregory Bovino and the two CBP officers who shot and killed Alex Pretti have been pulled out of Minnesota, that is not justice. All three were immediately sent back out on the street in another American city to terrorize, and possibly even murder, more Americans.
