Why would you ask such a question? Despite ten years of evidence, you continue to act as if Trump is capable of being honest with the American people. Trump is a pathological liar who hires pathological liars. They will never be honest with us. Ever.
A revealing and frightening article. For all the many groups associated with Project 2025, it's crystal clear this is only tangentially about immigration. It is mostly about using the military to intimidate and oppress American citizens who openly oppose Trump. That is the end game.
Trump is ignorant, but he knows why he invaded Iran. And now that the media is Iran, Iran, Iran, and not Epstein, Epstein, Epstein, Trump's reason for the invasion is working perfectly.
We have an ignorant, narcissistic and unqualified president, an ignorant, totally inept and unqualified administration, a congress led by ignorant, slobbering loyalists and a SCOTUS dominated by MAGAs. Why would we expect anything else?
“Breathe! Breathe!” he recalled officers shouting about 6:30 a.m. Then he said he heard an officer say “Dudes, you killed that dude.” A female guard replied “If he is dead, we’re going to cover it up and he’s going to have an alibi -- my officers,” the FBI notes said. The inmate claimed the whole wing overheard the exchange. Read more at: https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/article314966334.html#storylink=cpy
The Miami Herald reports that an inmate told the FBI he heard prison guards discussing the fact that they killed Epstein and were going to cover it up the morning he died.
The female guard below received thousands of dollars of payments in the months before Epstein died.
Trump and his family see absolutely nothing wrong with this. For them, this is simply a perk of being related to the president, not a violation of any law or ethical issue. And, because we can't enforce anything, that's what it is.
Just one more example of Trump appointing someone solely on their loyalty to him. This is not how any government should be run.
Nowhere does it state the obvious: This is all taxpayer money. Your money. My money. It's not just excessive, unnecessary spending, it is excessive, unnecessary spending of OUR MONEY. Get angrier.
Hillary Clinton nailed it ten years ago. Trump is Putin's puppet. There is no question about it.
Trump doesn’t have the ability to dictate when the war is over.
And he will lie again. Mission accomplished. Iran's nuke threat totally obliterated. We won.
Trump predicts the future with incredible accuracy.
My question: What will we do if Trump does put agents at polling places? Sue him again? Post more angry messages?
The greatest achievement of the GOP since the end of WWII has been to divert the attention of Americans away from the real enemies (the people in power) to imaginary culprits (the poor, POC, immigrants, etc.).
Neither Schumer nor Jeffries are the right people to lead the Dems at this point.
It's all about political priorities. The health and welfare of the American people is not a Trump priority.
Now do Trump.
Anybody who still says "Trump can't do that" needs to be shaken out of their delusional state. Trump does what he wants, because we cannot enforce any laws or legislation or court orders against him. It's up to us to save America.
It is the worst cabinet in history because Trump put loyalty to him above experience, intelligence and being a normal rational adult.
The national conversation is what the media says it is, and the media is owned by Trump-supporting oligarchs. Progressives and liberals state this basic reality daily.
We are allowing oligarchs, through Trump, to rob us and oppress us.
If America spent as much money developing and implementing clean renewable energy as we do on war we wouldn't have to send our children to die once again for oil.
What doesn't belong in America is white nationalism, bigotry and racism, religious intolerance and greed and corruption, but it's all here and well represented in the current administration.
That's OUR money, folks, not Trump's. You worked, paid your taxes, and this is how it's being spent. Not on schools, not on infrastructure, not on helping the poor, but on death and destruction. Get angrier.
This is Trump's war, but our tax dollars. It wasn't needed or wanted. It is a diversion from the Mad King's problems at home. Now all the media can report about is Iran. Trump won't be stopped until WE rise up and stop him.
The 2026 DOD funding is $839 billion. That's more than the next nine countries combined, including China and Russia. If not stopped, Congress will throw money at Defense. The Iran war is a war of choice, Trump's choice. No more money for war!
