James Comer spent every day for 2 years and millions of US taxpayer dollars trying to link Joe Biden to Hunter’s appointment to the Burisma board in 2014, but has zero interest in UAE putting $500 million into Trump’s crypto company then getting advanced AI chips from the US.

MAJOR UPSET ALERT: Democrat Taylor Rehmet has just been projected the winner of the Texas SD9 special election — flipping a district that went Trump +17 and hasn’t elected a Democrat since 1991.

Trump personally endorsed Leigh Wambsganss and spent days hyping this race… and still lost.

Q: On ICE protests, what did you mean when you said 'people will suffer an equal or greater consequence'?

TRUMP: If they do anything bad to our people, they will have to suffer, I'm sorry. If they throw bricks at one of our very expensive vehicles, they are gonna be met with very very serious force

From the court's order granting habeas corpus for the 5 year old & his father:
"Observing human behavior confirms that for some among us,the perfidious lust for unbridled power and the imposition of cruelty in its quest know no bounds and are bereft of human decency. And the rule of law be damned."

President Donald Trump said during a Cabinet meeting on Thursday that he wants to "drive housing prices up."

"Existing housing, people who own their homes, we're going to keep them wealthy. We're going to keep those prices up," Trump said.
