Our government’s priorities are entirely backward. And purposefully so.
Screenshot of a tweet by James Tate reading, “An educated populace is a threat to power.” The tweet includes a quoted graphic stating that ICE is offering a $45,000 signing bonus and $100,000 starting salary, compared to a teacher earning $55,000 in their eighth year with a master’s degree, arguing that education has been intentionally defunded.

Wait. Thiel is warning US about a hi-tech surveillance state? The guy behind PALANTIR?
Screenshot of a tweet by Arjun Panicksery quoting Peter Thiel. The text compares Europe’s future to three metaphorical doors: Islamic sharia law, Chinese Communist Party surveillance, and Greta Thunberg on a bicycle, stating there is no fourth option. Below is a highlighted excerpt from an interview transcript elaborating on the quote.

Filming them committing terrorism is now itself an act of terrorism?
Screenshot of a news article with the headline, “Justice Department Says Filming Immigration Raids Is ‘Domestic Terrorism.’” The byline reads Autumn Billings with a date and time. Below the headline is a black-and-white photo of a heavily armed federal agent pointing toward the camera, with other officers blurred in the background.

Trump even tried to bully women GOP House members in the Situation Room into not signing the Discharge Petition on the Epstein files.
Screenshot of a post on X (Twitter) from “Republicans against Tru…” with a verification checkmark. The post quotes: “Blanche: To be clear, releasing the files is not what President Trump has ever had an issue with.” Below it, the post adds “Fact check: False. Trump and his DOJ refused to release the files, only beginning to do so after a law compelled them.” Beneath the text is a TV screenshot from Meet the Press showing a man in a suit and red tie speaking on camera, with a city skyline in the background and on-screen text reading “Mr. Blanche?” and the Meet the Press logo.

CBS under Bari Weiss is bowing to Trump.
Screenshot of a post on X (Twitter) by Michael M. Grynbaum (@grynbaum). The text reads: “Here is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her ‘60 Minutes’ colleagues in full:” with the X.com branding visible in the corner and a small profile photo of the author. Screenshot of the beginning of an email on a white background addressed to “News Team,”. The email apologizes for not reaching out earlier and states that the writer learned Bari Weiss spiked the story “INSIDE CECOT,” which was supposed to air that night. It says the story was screened five times and cleared by CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices, calls it factually correct, and argues that pulling it is a political rather than editorial decision. Screenshot of the middle portion of the email. It states that requests for responses or interviews were made to DHS, the White House, and the State Department, and that government silence should not function as a veto. It warns that allowing refusal to participate to spike stories gives the government a “kill switch” over reporting and would turn 60 Minutes from an investigative program into a “stenographer for the state.” Screenshot of the concluding portion of the email. It emphasizes a moral and professional obligation to sources who risked their lives, references CBS spiking the Jeffrey Wigand interview and the damage to credibility, and warns that failing to air the story after promoting it will be seen as corporate censorship. The email ends by stating concern for the future of the broadcast and is signed “Sharyn.”

Trump’s signature policies aren’t just unsuccessful, they’re actively backfiring on him. Tariffs, rising costs, healthcare chaos, and mass deportations have fueled a steep decline in Trump's approval rating, undoing any gains he may have made last year.
Backfire
On every major policy question, the Trump regime is failing badly. And voters are taking note.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: A prominent economist analyzed Trump's “pharmaceutical deal” and just EXPOSED it as a complete farce:

Jeff Cohen says there are no enforceable price reductions - meaning drug companies can walk away whenever they want. No price guarantees. More empty promises.

We've now had a chance to fully absorb what the White House didn’t do—and importantly tried to hide—with its production of Epstein files on Friday. I break down the tell-tale cover-up in today’s piece.

No wonder Bondi and Patel tried so hard to prevent the release of the Epstein files.
A tweet from MeidasTouch (@MeidasTouch) reads: “EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: Newly released emails show Jeffrey Epstein told Ghislaine Maxwell that Donald Trump ‘spent hours at my house,’ ‘knew about the girls,’ and ‘that dog that hasn’t barked is trump.’” Below is a screenshot of two redacted email exchanges labeled “Email #1.” The text notes they are direct correspondence between Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

When you have to check if it’s The Onion or a real headline.
A tweet from MAYRA (@LePapillonBlu2) says: “That’s what happens with unchecked power.” Below is a headline screenshot from The Independent that reads: “Trump admits he didn’t have to tear down East Wing for ballroom, but just wanted to.” A subheadline adds that Trump addressed reports of backlash from former first ladies.

Patel knew and still weaved and dodged.
A tweet from Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) says: “I guess it’s safe to say he was mentioned…” He’s quoting Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) from September 17, 2025, which includes a dialogue between Swalwell and Patel: “SWAWELL: If you don’t know how many times Trump’s name appears in the Epstein files, it could be at least 1,000 times PATEL: It’s not SWALWELL: Is it at least 500 times?
