How clear is it that Trump's taxpayer funded ads are illegal? I explain why it is 10/10 clear. Senate in passing the law: Ban is designed to stop public funds used for "glorification" of an individual official. GAO: funds can not be used for "self-aggrandizement" nor partisan political purposes.

Trump is warning of a "final battle" against Democrats, who he calls "communists, Marxists, and fascists". He is using OUR taxpayer dollars to fund these ads calling us Democrats "the enemy". This is illegal and unconstitutional, like everything else he does. www.cnn.com/2026/09/27/p...

I didn't mention this in the article, but worth writing here; these groups openly advocate against other larger Nazi groups active right now, specifically naming groups such as Blood Tribe, GDL, and PF / Patriot Youth. They hope to violently destroy ~the system~, not control it like others.

Robert Hoopes' supporters have mobilized the support of the far-left on the city council, raising questions about how fit they are to serve office if they support people accused of engaging in violent insurrection against the U.S. government.
Hoopes family is part of the @fgcquaker religious community and they claim he is nonviolent and peaceful. He was quickly released without bail despite the seriousness of the felony charges.
