Hoping Americans for Separation of Church and State gets on this lawsuit real quick. Also good to remember that Hegseth is in an apocalyptic doomsday cult. He's trying to bring about the end of the world through war in the Middle East. Bc he can't read his Bible and he's a bigot.

MAGA says they only want judges born in the US. Fine. Start with Trump’s BFF, Aileen Cannon, who was born in Cali, Colombia. Let’s see how long that rule lasts.

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?

"Join us in the inner circle" is read in two ways. One is "reporting so good it feels like you're there, in person." Exciting! And worth the money, right? "Join the inner circle" also says: "You have the money. Now you get to know things unavailable to others." Awesome, right? That's the tell.
