What does the Epstein file deadline, Rob Reiner‘s death post blowback, and the Vanity Fair article lead to?
An act of WAR against Venezuela.

The media needs to stop writing headlines like “The CDC changes course on vaccines and autism” and “The CDC defends measles response”.
NONE of this is coming from legitimate scientists at the CDC.
ALL of it is coming from RFK Jr.
Every such headline is causing further harm to public health.

The hero of Bondi: Ahmed el Ahmed, a 43 year old fruit shop owner from Sutherland. He grabbed the gun off one of the terrorists shooting at Jews during a Hanukkah celebration.
Ahmed was then shot in the leg and shoulder by another terrorist. He’s being treated in the hospital and expected to be OK.

The thing is that Trump, et al. know that they are breaking the law. They don't care. We're well beyond a Constitutional crisis & the media is acting like nothings out of the norm.
How many of these videos of #ICELawlessness have they aired? A scintilla.

The American Dream has long been government Of, By and For the People. For hundreds of years, many generations lived in a somewhat flawed democracy, while trying to improve it. Recently, a small minority of Americans voted for dictatorship, but we WILL soon rebuild democracy peacefully or otherwise.

After NYS Young Republicans club was disbanded for praising Hitler, the NYC Young Republican club chapter is rolling out the red carpet for leaders of Germany’s Nazi-cosplaying AfD party.
I condemn it in the strongest of terms, as should my New York GOP colleagues. The AfD is not welcome in NY-10.

Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.
This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.
