These questions have now been asked of Blanche repeatedly & he gives the same bullshit answer each time. Here’s an idea: How about we ask Blanche direct and pointed questions about his noncompliance with court orders from Judge Sullivan compelling him to provide unredacted Epstein Files?

ICE killed a Colombian man. He was legally authorized to work. His wife and 3-year-old daughter were in the car when ICE fired at least 5 times. He was not their target. Agents wore no body cameras. This is fascism. Prepare: PAXIS.app Keep it free: GoFundMe.com/PAXIS

The biggest story in America is a president who has completely lost touch with reality. Who thinks the FBI let all the January 6 rioters into the Capitol, that he really won the 2020 election, that the Iran War is going well. Who, when occasionally confronted w reality, panics.

The veteran correspondents staying at 60 Minutes are making the same mistake WaPo reporters did. 60 Minutes fate lies with viewers, not Bari Weiss or any internal deal she cut with them. Viewers will abandon 60 Minutes just as they did WaPo because, for good reason, they no longer trust the owner.

Trump’s recent appearances continue to raise serious questions. Difficulty walking in a straight line. Visible hand discoloration. Erratic speech. Missed basic putts despite spending all that time on the golf course. The pattern is getting harder to ignore.

ICE has violated almost 100 court orders. Let me say that another way. 100 times ICE was caught brazenly ignoring the law. 100 times a court told them to immediately stop. And 100 times they ignored the order. That's an out-of-control agency that shouldn't get another dime.

The thrill Trump gets from having people blow up & kill other people, and from watching other people fight at UFC, comes from deep insecurity rooted in his personal cowardice. It makes him feel tough. It makes him feel adequate. Things he has never been but always wanted to be.
