When 60 Minutes contacted me about Donald Trump's attack on the legal profession, I criticized him and Big Law's capitulation on camera.

It was only 5 months ago that Trump said he would only go after the worst of the worst. Now they are disappearing people including U.S. citizens. Next they want to create a national database of citizens. Will states send back individual voting data?

"Basic democratic principles and checks and balances will be largely undermined, the legislature, law enforcement and media will be robbed of their independence and misused as a political arm, Big Tech will be given co-governing power." www.reuters.com/world/us/ger...

I cannot tell you how tired I am of this bullshit.

Republicans nominated and voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Republican politicians endorsed him and refused to impeach him twice.

Nearly every Democrat fought him every step of the way to protect democracy.
