The irony is it's the First Amendment, which Vance & Bondi are trampling, that gives Trump the right to spout absurdities targeting journalists. Nobody gains more from free speech than Trump.

This has been a long pattern - look it up 👇 Clinton in 1992 rebuilt the economy after George H.W. Bush ran it into recession. Obama in 2009 rebuilt the economy after George W. Bush ran it into recession. Biden in 2020 rebuilt our economy over 4 years after Trump left the economy in ruins.

This explains why a Fox News viewer I spoke to over the weekend thinks that Joe Biden is the most corrupt President ever, and doesn’t know a single thing about Trump’s blatantly corrupt activities around crypto, pardons, etc.

"I didn't know he would do this." Yes, you did, or you voted while being completely uninformed which is just as bad. Prove you didn't know it by joining folks resisting the regime. Prove it by disavowing him. Prove it by fighting for what's right. Otherwise, just be quiet.

WOW. After yesterday’s Oval Office ambush of President Zelensky, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway’s leading marine fuel providers, announced that it will no longer refuel U.S. Navy vessels, urging other European firms to follow suit. The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.
