For the first time in a generation, we have censorship of the press.

Not because the government prohibits publication of offending material.

But because the administration coerces and dangles corrupt incentives like help with billion-dollar mergers.

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

Except for a family emergency or critical business need for a face-to-face, there shouldn't be a single "foreign visitor" entering the US.

And many Americans should be nervous about visiting other countries. Try wearing a Canadian flag, like Americans did in the 60s.

Exactly.
My family will not set foot in 🇺🇸 until the traitorous regime is removed from power.
They continue to violate human rights, brake 🇺🇸 and international laws, ignore due process and kidnap and traffic tourists; immigrants and even us citizens.

The tourist industry claims that they lost half of the foreign travelers and tourist in 2025.
That is half of a $2.3 Trillion industry.
That should be front page news.

Jeez. All tourists - including those from Britain - will have to undergo a social media screening before being allowed entry into the US under new plans being considered by the country's border force

Don't come to the US!! My husband's friend talked about visiting from Mexico and I balked at the suggestion. It would be irresponsible to have someone you care about risk the trip.

America is lost. We might as well be North Korea as far as international opinion goes.

The release of the Epstein files is required by law to happen on December 19th.
On December 18th, we will "officially" be at war with Venezuela.

Trump’s top priorities have included:

-Paving over the Rose Garden
-Putting gold leaf all over the Oval Office
-Demolishing the East Wing for a ballroom
-Building a giant Arch & naming it after himself

Notable exclusions: lowering the cost of housing, health care, or groceries.

It would be a fine thing if the American people can see the true contents of the Epstein files before Trump leaves office. We never did get a trial about Trump's Jan 6th insurrection. He got off scot free. Is our justice system unable, or unwilling, to hold him to account for his actions?
