Kushner’s Moscow mission wasn’t just corrupt. It was unconstitutional.
Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has been traveling the world to participate in high-stakes foreign policy negotiations on behalf of the president.

Tariffs are a tax we all pay. Period. That’s why I’m suing to stop them. The president does not have the authority to unilaterally raise taxes on Americans.

Yes! We need to take down Theil!! Maybe this will be the way.
I'm an observant, no-bullshit person. So I find it incredibly hard to believe that these otherwise ostensibly wealthy businessmen (mostly men) who frequented Epstein's homes and were in his circle had no idea what was going on. He did not obscure much.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.
She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.
But the FDA recently denied its approval.
Now, her health hangs in the balance.
