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.👇

Adam Kidan went to federal prison with Jack Abramoff and was ordered to repay $21.7 million. Trump pardoned him in July. His money turned up in eight Republican Senate campaigns. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-pard...

Can the president use taxpayer funds to air his old campaign ads on TV?

No. Federal appropriations law has long barred using taxpayer funds for political advertising.

Welp. Republicans distancing themselves from Trump, saying it’s time to end the war. Congress introduced War Powers resolutions to force Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from Iran. Ashley Hinson: NO Jon Husted: NO Tom Tiffany: NO They had a chance to end it, but they voted against it.
