"Critics have likened Mr. Trump’s approach to extortion, while others have chalked it up as a cost of doing business with this administration."

There is no such thing as “narcoterrorism” — it’s a political construct designed to stigmatize & dehumanize target groups while rationalizing extreme & often illegal responses. Drug traffickers do resort to extreme violence, but they are not motivated by ideology, religion, or grievance. Just 💰💵.
Al Capone and his bootlegging gangster rivals often resorted to extreme violence to settle their differences because we gave them no legal means to resolve them using courts and we chose not to regulate legal alcohol, but we never designated them “alco-terrorists” or bombed them from airplanes!🙄

Reading the deposition he gave in Chicago you can understand why it is that Judge Ellis tore into him.

The first substantive question is "What is your role in Operation Midway Blitz?" Bovino essentially gives his title and no further details. 8 pages later, the lawyer gives up.

So apparently the administrators at Northwestern have caved to the extortionist demands of the Feds. Faculty voted 595-4 AGAINST this measure.

NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.

“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”

Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border.

New data suggests separations now happen all over the country, often after little more than a traffic stop.

Trump says he’ll pardon ex-Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, convicted of taking millions in cartel bribes to protect U.S.-bound cocaine, because he was “treated too harshly.”
You mean we don’t put him on a boat and kill him? Or do we only do that to civilians for show?

The DC shooting is a Reichstag Fire.

Trump granted the man asylum this spring. Trump agreed with the program that brought him here in 2021. There was full vetting. Trump’s DC op is why this happened.

Now it’s being used to end all immigration from nonwhite countries. And undo the Biden presidency.
The Afghan national accused of shooting two National Guard members near the White House this week underwent thorough vetting by counterterrorism authorities before entering the U.S., according to people with direct knowledge of the case.
Counterterrorism officials vetted Guard shooting suspect before he entered U.S.
Individuals with knowledge of the process that Rahmanullah Lakanwal went through contradicted senior Trump officials’ claim that he was not scrutinized.

The president is such a bumbling idiot he thinks tweeting out the word "hereby" a couple times on his white supremacist social media site is the same thing as making an actual law.

The only story here is the one about a mentally diminished, increasingly erratic president who thinks he's a king.
It should go without saying, but the president has no authority to do this, and anyone reporting the story needs to say as such.

"If the President orders the military to stop Congress from certifying an election, and the Supreme Court has said the President is immune from prosecution for official acts, and commanding the military is certainly an official act, then what exactly is illegal about the order?"

Donald Trump incited an insurrection on J6. He should never have been able to run for public office again. What a failure of justice to not hold this man accountable.

I was just in China and this doesn’t surprise me one bit.

The EVs on the road there are outstanding and the prices are shockingly affordable. China let Tesla build and sell cars there, learned the playbook, then knocked them off and outperformed them in every way.

Unfortunately, Chinese EV‘s are banned from the United States. And you can see why. They were demolished the US EV manufacturers. Not just Tesla.

I drive a Lucid and I would snap one of the Chinese EV‘s up in a second.
