The UAE bought $2B of Trump’s crypto — and gets computer chips

Qatar gives Trump a private jet and a $5.5B real estate deal — and gets US military protection

You know who hates America

The guys who took healthcare away from millions of Americans

The ones who CUT billions of dollars for programs like cancer research and FEMA

Who sit and watch the president use military troops to attack our cities

That’s Mike Johnson

HE hates America

"Miller’s contention about ICE officers 'having to street battle against antifa every night' is objectively absurd. Courts cannot possibly be required to accept anything Trump says, no matter how disconnected from reality."

Stephen Miller's radically bogus idea of "plenary authority"

This is not how the Constitution works.

There's a clear a way to end the Citizens United precedent by changing state incorporation laws - and now luminaries in both parties are forcing a vote on it in the 2026 election.
