To be clear, the orange felon is responsible for the Kennedy Center being on the brink of financial ruin due to his constant immoral petulant need to install his disgusting name on someone’s memorial who he is in fact jealous of and his insidious desire to demolish it if he doesn’t get his way.

To be clear, criminal slumlord Jared Kushner and fascist pet Steve Witkoff taking a trip to Russia to spend hours with murderous Dictator Putin and displaying all smiles as they greet the evil war criminal is the perfect definition of treason in my book.

Oh, honey . . . You place your children in the custody of priests, pastors, and youth pastors, a demographic proven most likely to molest children. You are *not* protecting and nurturing your children—you're endangering them. And shamelessly lying about Islam and feminism isn't going to change that.

Jared Kushner is currently negotiating for the USA. How gifted is Jared at negotiating? In 2007, Jared bought an office tower at the top of the market, the most expensive single-building real estate purchase in NYC history. The market tanked in 2008, leaving his company over $1 billion in debt.

Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.

I’ll say this again for people in the back, Hakeem Jeffries having multiple meetings with crime slumlord Jared Kushner is frankly inexcusable and unforgivable. There is no explanation that he could give to justify wanting to work with that corrupt immoral piece of shit.

A Florida grand jury found the DeSantis administration “misappropriated” $10 million meant to provide health insurance for poor children. Part of a “sophisticated scheme to fund political activities,” the money was funneled through multiple organizations before reaching two PACs and the Florida GOP.

Never forget: Prior to his election as attorney general, the most notable thing Ken Paxton had done at a courthouse was filch a $1,000 pen from another lawyer. But you don’t need to be brilliant or ethical to wield power in government; you just need to keep the right people happy for long enough.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton tried to overturn the election. Now he’s going after Roe.
In a golden age of Republican corruption, even a warm body with nothing to lose can do a lot of damage.
