Troy Jackson: "The gentleman's name was Johan Sebastian Guerrero. He had a 3 year old daughter. The only mistake he made that morning was going to work. Because Sen. Collins is not willing to stand up to Donald Trump, he was murdered in the streets of Biddeford for doing nothing wrong."

Marco Rubio has a meltdown when asked about Kimberly Guilfoyle: "I'm not playing this game ... you guys are not gonna be our only source of information in the world. I'm sorry to tell you that. No... I don't even know if what you're reporting is true." (It's true! The Journal has her text messages!)

Martin: "We have a glorious headache right now. We are able to expand the map to areas we haven't competed in in generations. In fact, we haven't won a Senate seat in Kansas as a Democrat in 94 years. And we're seeing it not just in places like Kansas, but in Nebraska. In Mississippi ... even in FL"

The corrupt gangsters running this government violate the law daily and use government funds for partisan politics to bribe voters in violation of the law. Trump has been emboldened by a rogue Supreme Court which has given him immunity and taken a blowtorch to the Constitution.

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.

"Were he trying to raise the cost of diesel, Trump would be hard pressed to improve upon the combination of trade wars, tariffs, and a Strait of Hormuz-choking Mideast war. At this point, he may as well propose doubling the 24.4 cents per gallon federal diesel tax."

On Tuesday, Trump unveiled America.gov. Right now, it functions as an AI chatbot that bases its answers on government sources. The functionality of America.gov at launch was awkward for Trump. By providing summaries of gov. data and reports, it debunks many of the falsehoods that Trump promotes.
