"I was totally exonerated." Which is why Donald is fighting tooth and nail to stop the Epstein files about his crimes from being released. And O'Donnell is the "disgrace" for repeating well-founded accusations against Donald, not Donald for engaging in such foul behavior.

Nora O'Donnell asks Trump what he thinks about the WHCD suspect writing that he won't let a rapist traitor "coat his hands in blood." Trump retorts, "I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody." O'Donnell responds, "Oh, you think he was referring to you?"

The only way to make things right is to hold the wrongdoers, thieves and grifters to account.
Screenshot of a tweet by Rep. Ted Lieu (@RepTe...) stating that Trump and his family have made over $9 billion during his presidency and calling their corruption "out of control." The embedded video shows Lieu speaking at a House podium alongside another representative, with a caption overlay reading "Lieu: A future administration will prosecute these criminals" and a subtitle reading "Gas prices are up."

A group of journalists, led by Dan Rather & Sam Donaldson, are asking the White House correspondents to use the annual dinner for something other than taking selfies & 'putting aside differences'. They're asking for a clarion call for freedom of the press and to list Trump's many attacks on freedom.

This isn’t efficiency or modernization. This is the dismantling of a 120-year-old agency done illegally, done deliberately, and done fast enough that most people won’t notice until it’s too late.

Forest Service Reorganization | US Forest Service
As part of the USDA reorganization plan, the Forest Service is realigning its organizational structure to strengthen local leadership, streamline operations, and improve mission delivery. The changes include moving headquarters to Salt Lake City, transitioning to a state-based leadership model, building a network of Operations Service Centers, and unifying the agency’s research program.

The pressure campaign is working. The USDA Forest Service just spoke out, attempting to explain what they’re calling “fact vs. fiction.” Don’t trust this administration, all they do is lie. They know they’re losing businesses are pulling away, and everyone is speaking out.

If you go to Facebook you can comment on the U.S. Forest Service’s recent post. They’re calling out our movement because major businesses are now speaking up and that’s got them rattled. They’re spreading lies to sell you on their demolition of the Forest Service. Don’t buy it.

Before Donald's war, Iran did not control the Strait of Hormuz. Oil tankers moved freely. After Donald attacked, Iran cut off travel through the Strait. Gas prices rose sharply. Under the ceasefire Trump just negotiated, Iran still controls the Strait. Art of the Deal? 🤡

The policy will impose “therapy” and “psychotropic medication” until the inmates’ gender dysphoria is “resolved.” The fascists’ game plan: 1.) Criminalize trans people’s existence; 2.) Incarcerate en masse; 3.) Torture & experiment on them 4.) Expand the policy to other queer people.
