So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

it’s beyond comprehension that scenes like this have become routine in chicago.

masked soldiers are carelessly lobbing chemical weapons—that are banned from use during warfare—on random residential streets.

this is the third time feds have tear-gassed residents in chicago *this week!*

“Why not ask Congress for a declaration of war on the cartels?”

TRUMP: “We’re just gonna kill people bringing drugs into our country. We’re gonna kill them.”

Again: Not legal. (Also, not moral — There has been no real confirmation the dozens killed are even drug runners)

It has occurred to me and others that not a single moving van was seen outside the East Wing prior to its demolition.

Where is all the furniture? The art work?

Mar a lago? Those artifacts did not belong to Trump. Where are they?
We demand to see proof that it was retained on WH property.
