Christian nationalist MAGA went from despising Palestinians to wanting to build them free homes because Trump made some kind of real estate development deal with Netanyahu.

Trump just suspended enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a key anti-bribery law signed by Carter in 1977. For 50 years, it stopped corporations from bribing foreign officials. Now, Trump is letting corruption run wild.

A federal judge just ordered the Trump administration to restore CDC, FDA and HHS webpages that Trump had ordered to be deleted.

This comes after doctors sued the Trump administration for interfering with their treatment of patients.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.”

Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

"While Biden trampled on it." The Biden DOJ prosecuted Sen. Menendez (D-NJ), Rep. Cueller (D-TX), and refused to prosecute Matt Gaetz (R-FL). Meanwhile, Mike Johnson was the architect of Trump's effort to undermine Biden's 2020 win, culminating into an insurrection at the Capitol.

Pure projection.
