If you are troubled watching ICE kidnap people off the streets, but don't know anyone who it has affected personally, let me share this with you. This is a family known by a good friend of mine. If you feel it in your heart to contribute, I know it would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe instead of running around filming workout videos for social media, renaming bases, hunting DEI, firing outstanding officers, and fighting to restrict press access, Pete Hegseth should’ve been studying the war in Ukraine to learn something about modern drone warfare.

37 indictments, plus: Trump associates repeatedly lied about their contacts with Russians. Trump refused to answer questions about his obstruction. A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors, that anyone else who engaged in that obstructive conduct would have been indicted.
Trump asked his White House counsel, Don McGahn, to arrange for Mueller to be fired in June, after he started work. Trump denied he’d done this when a reporter broke the story about the requested firing in 2018.

Trump tried to get McGahn to deny reporting about his conduct as it surfaced, and once threatened to fire McGahn if he wouldn’t. McGahn refused. Trump summoned McGahn to the Oval Office and ordered him to create a false record that denied that Trump ordered him to fire Mueller, which would be a federal felony if proven.

The only thing we know for certain about how Trump’s War will end is no matter what the outcome, whether any real objectives are achieved, regardless of the impact on the US and global economy over the short and long term, & the number of deaths, Trump will declare total victory.

(around photos of Jeff Bezos and an Amazon employee) Jeff Bezos made $90 billion in profit... because of their hard work.

Amazon's profits went UP 45%, but its taxes went DOWN 87%.

Thanks to Trump's "Big Ugly Bill," Amazon paid just $1.2 billion in taxes (down from $9 billion last year).

Hardworking Americans are struggling, while Republicans hand massive tax breaks to the Epstein class.

I can't think of an attorney general ever showing this much open contempt for Congress before. Not only would most of them think this kind of conduct was beneath them, they'd have known that the Judiciary Committee chair, whatever the party, would never stand for clownish antics like this.

Those safeguards were created after the 19th-century spoils system, when government jobs were handed out as political rewards and taken away after elections, a practice that led to corruption, instability, and unqualified leadership in key roles.
