Prominent supporters of President Trump — led by Ben Shapiro — are fueling a major push to pardon Derek Chauvin, the white former Minnesota police officer convicted of killing George Floyd in 2020.
MAGA figures fuel idea of Derek Chauvin pardon
Pardoning Chauvin would keep with MAGA's own-the-libs and anti-social justice mentality.

The funniest part is an allegedly grown man talking this much trash while wearing a hat that says PROUD BOYS.

Merz just said on German TV that the primary priority of his government will be to ensure that Europe can achieve full strategic independence from the United States in the defence against Russia.

Merz was once a die hard Atlanicist. Now, after Trump he is a Gaullist.

Extraordinary.

WTF.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

Donald Trump illegally fired 19 inspectors general.

The law requires notice to Congress and a case-by-case justification. It is not optional.

Congress must convene a bipartisan hearing to examine these unlawful acts and how they can be remedied. Immediately.

The ‘American First’ crowd is awfully quiet about Trump’s pledge to build free housing for 2 million Palestinians in some random country they don’t want to go to that also doesn’t want them. I’m sure this will all work out fine and that’s what people thought they were voting for.

MN is proud to help feed the world (in fact, this program was created by Hubert Humphrey). Now not only is that in jeopardy, but millions of dollars in income for farmers is too? Disgusting.

This food, which we’ve already paid for, is waiting on ships to be delivered to those who need it.
