For those of us warning about democracy's potential disintegration, the decision by CBS to pull an exhaustively researched 60 Minutes piece, critical of Trump, is another red alert moment.

When truth disappears as the media gets coopted by the regime, there's little left.

Felon autocrat Trump and his buddies are engineering state-run media, turning the U.S. into the next North Korea or Russia. CBS should be ashamed for making themselves complicit in this destruction of democracy.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

"One [victim] said that she was brought to Mar-a-Lago by Jeffrey Epstein when she was 14, and Epstein kind of nudged Trump and said, 'this is a nice one, right?' If two grown men are staying there with a 14-year-old, what message can you take from that? That's a question for Trump to answer."

In the briefing yesterday, the Admin didn't even pretend the strikes were designed to stop the fentanyl trade to the U.S.. Of course - because Venezuela produces no fentanyl.

They transport cocaine - bound for...wait for it...Europe.

So this is The War On European Cocaine.

Quite the day for Patel to drop this new content.

The FBI has completely bungled the Brown shooting - the shooter is still at large! - just like the Kirk shooting.

Maybe that's because Patel is doing interviews like this instead of doing his job.

The one thing I'll say is that the Trump post on the Reiners is even more deranged and cut off from all reality when you remember that Michele shot the cover photo for Art of the Deal. Trump usually never passes up a chance to point out stuff like that. He's lost all grip on reality.

Just taking a second to ponder the new Epstein photos and how sickening it is that the president of the United States was at the very least aware of pedophelia going on around him. It should shake every American to their core.

Why do most Republicans deny the Epstein Files? (Axios)?
Because they are involved in child sex trafficking as much as in today’s human trafficking.
The GOP support child sex trafficking. Their silence is loud.

Trump is violating the U.S. Constitution and US law openly. Since when did murdering, cruelty and violence become part of the president’s duty? The Supreme Court caused this terror. They need do take responsibility and correct.

The release of the Epstein files is required by law to happen on December 19th.
On December 18th, we will "officially" be at war with Venezuela.

I need you to listen to and share this story - of how Trump is preparing to abandon Ukraine in exchange for Russian money for his billionaire friends.

It could be the greatest corruption of American foreign policy in our history. Russia gets Ukraine. Trump's friends get rich.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.
