No rule of law in the US. The King decides who deserves punishment.

Rolling Stone: “Trump has issued over 2,000 pardons and commutations this year, letting a string of drug dealers, corrupt politicians, and MAGA-friendly businessmen off the hook in a gross abuse of the Constitution.”

A date which will live in infamy.

A quiet dawn. A sudden attack. An enduring legacy of courage. Today, we remember the servicemembers who gave their lives defending our nation at Pearl Harbor. Their sacrifice is woven into the fabric of our freedom.

Mark Kelly: “Jobs are down. Wages are flat. Costs are up & this President is asleep — Like literally, he’s falling asleep on the job. It’s hurting the American people — He’s doing nothing to try to help people with the cost of groceries, rent, & healthcare”

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Bongino saying the quiet--and cynical--part out loud.

In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that.

What a confession.

Most SNAP recipients work. They need SNAP because corporations refuse to pay a living wage.

The rest are disabled, elderly or unpaid caregivers.

People should be fed. Period.

Trump divided the country, extorted Zelenskyy, tried to steal an election, incited an insurrection, stole confidential documents and banged a porn star. That’s his legacy. He knows he’s incapable of achieving anything good. He’s hoping his ballroom will remind people of him.

#Trump pardoned Tim Leiweke — who his own DOJ indicted in July for rigging a public university’s arena bid—

It’s all a grift — Saudis to crypto to pardon seekers — everything gets turned into a revenue stream. With 1,500+ pardons already, clemency is a monetized market
