It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

What did we learn today? That Jack Smith is a Caitlin Clack fan and that Senator Eric Schmitt is a dirtbag! The senator mistook the Atlanta Hawks for the Iowa Hawkeyes and tried to accuse Jack Smith of perjury. Epic fail. I'm still a fan of Jack Smith. A real American patriot. 🇺🇸

Elon Musk only sees the value of things in dollar amounts. Nothing matters to him but money. All the people he’s killed by cancelling USAID are just numbers on a page. He needs to go. He’s done enough damage to humanity.

Just in case it wasn’t clear, when they say the U.S. Government’s paying for this, that’s YOUR taxpayer dollars they’re using. I’ll say this as many times as I need to: it is ILLEGAL to use American taxpayer dollars from the government to pay for candidates’ or parties’ political ads.

Editors Sound Alarm Over Trumps Latest Controversial Remarks Shocking Consistency Emerges
In a move raising eyebrows across the Atlantic, President Donald Trump revealed sensitive details about a recent counter-terrorism operation in the UK shortly after five men were arrested near RAF Fairford, a British airbase. His remarks have ignited concerns about whether crucial national security information can remain confidential under his administration. British authorities apprehended the five suspects over suspicions of plotting a terrorist act and explosives offenses.

It's already estimated that the richest 1% alone evade $163 billion in taxes every year. But Trump gutted the IRS — including the unit tasked with auditing billionaires. The agency's audit revenue fell 35%. Now, Trump's IRS is not publishing data on unpaid taxes. See the problem?

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

Donald Trump is so crude, stupid, and lowbrow, he has no appreciation for the majestic beauty of our national parks. If a place doesn't have gaudy gilding, flashing neon, and ringing cash registers, he doesn't see worth.
