YES! Illinois wins a Supreme Court ruling keeping Trump's troops out.
This is an important victory as the regime perverts the military's mission and seeks to punish states that won't bow to the dictator.

I’m sure Russia knows what we are going to do before the American people since they have so many people serving in the Trump admin sharing intel with them.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
