Happy New Year To Everyone, Including the UNHINGED LOSER "Tiny" Mike Johnson, who—despite his best but pitiful efforts—will fail miserably to stop us from extending ACA tax credits in January.

Question: But the president’s statements that he believed the election was rife with fraud—those are statements protected by the First Amendment, correct?
Smith: Absolutely not. If they are made to target a lawful government function and are made with knowing falsity, then no, they are not.

Since 2021, more than 1,400 gray wolves have been killed in Idaho. You can take action to stop this slaughter by sending a message to Idaho Governor Brad Little to put a stop to these cruel wolf hunts. environmental-action.org/take-action/...

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.
That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:
It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.
It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.
Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

So the "most transparent president in history" won't let Jack Smith's testimony become public. He's got them holding back tens of thousands of Epstein documents, haven't seen his taxes, his school records, and no one knows why the East Wing was destroyed before he even had ballroom plans. Yeah.
