Trump is transactional. He’s trying to sell out Ukraine.
So, the question is—who’s buying Trump? The Kremlin, by buying the Trump crypto coin.
And if the president wants to prove me wrong, then release the records like I asked.

They’re making clear who matters to them: billionaires and giant corporations.
And who does not: working families.

Nobody but the president or his AG can state what the law is??? There are 3 branches of government and the 1st amendment in this country.
This weasel actually insists it’s a “longstanding norm” that only the president or his attorney general can say “what the law is” which is, of course, absolute garbage.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Every single professional organization in the country should be speaking out about the news about NCMEC.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.
