“We are talking about this because crime has gotten out of control in our cities”

People not liking you is not crime.

You cannot storm our cities because your feelings are hurt and you can't win public debates.

Are they going to drag more branches of the military out to rake leaves?

Angry elf reveals who is truly behind the cruel immigration enforcement. Will Trump care that Miller is openly taking credit for it? Or is his dementia that far gone?

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

George Stephanopoulos is the type of energy I listen to. JD Vance wants to spin a bribe as a Democratic rabbit hole. This whole regime is a criminal enterprise.

this is the list of ideological identifiers laid out in the NSPM-7 that would predict violence, and are all of course, incredibly reasonable positions or just ridiculous framing, like “extremism on gender” which is just being pro-trans:

He wouldn't have a straight answer either way..

But was he possibly distracted by a couch in the room?

Vance could not give a straight answer to questions about:

➡️ Tom Homan's alleged acceptance of a bribe
➡️ Trump's accusations that J.B. Pritzker is a criminal
➡️ Layoffs at the CDC

"The bride, resplendent in a unicorn outfit, and the groom, dressed as Kenny from South Park, walked down the aisle — in reality, a sidewalk across from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland — in front of a crowd of about 30 onlookers Friday."

Wow...

Trump can't remember standing there and directing people to storm our capital now?

Can't remember he was president at the time??

Governor Newsom Press Office: "In a late night post, Trump does not remember who was president on Jan 6, 2021 (he was), weirdly shouts "do something" (likely at clouds). His mental issues are very bad!"

Benny Johnson: "in a late night post, president Trump says 274 fbi agents were placed into the crowd on January 6th and says "do something"

Trump: "the Biden fbi placed 274 agents into the crowd on January 6. If this is so, which it is, a lot of very good people will be owed big apologies. What a scam - do something. President DJT.

RFK,Jr. just laid off 1,000 employees of HSS. A deliberate act to further decimate the nation's CDC, which serves to investigate disease outbreaks, manage infectious disease responses, and collect data.

Expect sickness & deaths.

The Trump administration is completely inept.
There’s no way any of these people should be in charge of anything.
It’s just ridiculous already.
We need a clean sweep. Fire every Republican. Seriously. They’re getting people killed.

🚨SMITH DOCUMENT DROP🚨
Let's remind ourselves what this was about and a few takeaways:
✈️Trump shell companies & PACs paid for travel, expenses, & organizers of rioters.
📸Fake elector certificates
...plus more!
📑Smith wrote Trump would've been convicted if he hadn't won 2024.
Convict anyway!🔗

That day should have definitely gotten him jailed as a traitor, and at the very least disqualified him from office.

In a sane world, a caring family would get him help. But that isn't the case here.

The 25th amendment in a better government, but it leaves a lot of gaps too

It's on us, I guess

"the actual order...said nothing about putting people in prison for a year. Instead, it acknowledged a [SCOTUS] ruling that burning a flag to protest government policies...is political expression protected by the First Amendment."
