Republicans spent the entire hearing accusing Jack Smith of prosecuting Trump for political reasons and falsely claiming he was being directed by Biden and Garland. Ironically, while they were doing that, Trump was telling Bondi on Truth Social that she should prosecute Smith.

So, Putin thinks he's going to pay Trump's "Board of Peace" entry fee with $1 billion in currently frozen Russian assets.

This is how Trump aligns the US with our sworn enemy.

Impeach this mfer.

AOC: This is quite a bit of market concentration. Agreed?

CVS HEALTH CHAIR DAVID JOYNER: No. I'd suggest it's a model that works well for the consumer

AOC: It works well for CVS. Health insurance gets a cut, pharmacy benefit manager gets one, drug manufacturer gets one, & the patient gets screwed

Putin spends millions from Russia's budget to subject Ukrainians to a life without heating, electricity and water during a harsh winter. He wants hospitals, schools, nurseries to stop working.None of the millions of Russians protest against that.Approval.
And Trump wants putin on his board of peace?

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

After illegally abducting Maduro, Trump has just sold $250M of Venezuela's oil to Vitol.

John Addison, a senior trader at Vitol who helped broker the deal, gave $6M to Trump's 2024 campaign.

Pay-to-play imperialism.

The United States government used armed thugs to kidnap a 5-year-old child off an American street, separate him from his dad, traffic him to another state, and sling him into a scary & unsafe concentration camp.

"This is not who we are!!!"

Yes, unfortunately, it now is.
Here’s the report from KARE. The boy is five-year-old Liam Ramos.

I wonder if this makes anyone think back to when this ICE treatment on white people today was common for police to do to blacks? The police who treated blacks this way have become ICE employees. When you don’t fight for all, they only come for you next.

Trump on NATO:

"The problem with NATO is that we'll be there for them 100% but I'm not sure that they'd be there for us, if we gave them the call".

We did get the call on 9/11. 26 NATO members sent troops to defend the US. Hundreds died doing so. It was the only time Article 5 has been activated.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

All those guns, and so far the 2nd amendment has chiefly been used to protected the gun rights of child killers. Where's that Militia to protect us from brutal lawless thugs? If this isn't what it was designed for, what is?

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.
