Saturday: Trump announced he blew up what he claimed was a drug smuggling submarine. Two people survived. Trump said he was returning the two back to their countries for prosecution. One of which is Colombia.

Now, Trump says the Colombian president is “an illegal drug leader.” 🤔

They use govt accounts, employees & resources to make partisan political messages.

They make partisan political speeches attacking the opposition party to troops routinely.

They get pardoned when they commit crimes.

They ignore the laws.

There is zero congressional oversight.

"I've told the story of Akromiya for 20 years. I’m telling it again now, because today is No King’s Day, and I am afraid that 'Antifa' is the American Akromiya: a fabricated entity made by state propagandists to persecute anyone who opposes the government."

Inventing Antifa

The No Kings March in Chicago is one of the largest gatherings I’ve seen here. Looking down from by the river, the crowd stretches for blocks down Michigan Ave and wraps around Wacker Dr. This video is from a few minutes ago and the end of the protest is nowhere in sight.

Nothing has ever trickled down.
