AP: 'President Donald Trump said in an interview aired on Sunday that he “won’t be extorted” by Democrats'

MUST WATCH The Administration put a clause in the budget bill passed by the House of Representatives, taking all power away from any court or Congress to stop the administration.

If the Senate passes the "Big Beautiful Bill", the US as a representative democracy is gone.

My guess is that if any MAGAs saw this study they wouldn't look deep inside themselves to try to understand why red state life expectancies are lower - but would rather pin it on a conspiracy by democrats and George Soros. Sigh.

Well phrased by David Frum, it's abundantly clear from the words and actions of this administration that Trump is, or wants to be, allied with Russia against the West and its liberal (as in liberty, not left wing) democracies.
