random farmer to Trump on what his child said to him: "He said, 'Daddy, I don't want Santa Claus to come to our house for Christmas, I want President Trump.' I think you brought Christmas to farmers with this bridge payment."

NEW: SCOTUS appears ready to give Trump greater firing powers, over sharp liberal warnings.

The Republican appointees are almost certain to overturn a 90-year precedent, as Trump wants. Pushing back, Sotomayor told DOJ: “You’re asking us to destroy the structure of government.”

Q: “You said you would have no problem with releasing the full video of that strike on September 2nd.”

Trump: “I didn’t say that. You said that. I didn’t say that. This is ABC fake news.”

Trump on Dec. 3: “Whatever they have, we’d certainly release. No problem.”

“Every boat we knock out of the water, we save 25,000 American lives…”

The boat was headed South to Suriname.

It wasnt going to America

They have saved exactly zero American lives.
REPORTER: “Mr. President, you said you would have no problem with releasing the full video of that strike on September 2, off the coast of Venezuela, Sec. Hegseth—”

TRUMP: “I didn’t say that. You said that. I didn’t say that.”

JUST IN: Rachel Scott (ABC) verbally attacked.

“Let me just tell you, you are an obnoxious – a terrible, actually a terrible reporter. And it’s always the same thing with you. I told you, whatever Pete Hegseth wants to do is OK with me,” Trump said.

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.)

Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart.

People detained at this facility are denied adequate food, medical care, and are physically and sexually abused by the guards.

America got “the president is killing terrorists, don’t question it” in the 2000s too. But unlike now:
-The US had been attacked
-Al Qaeda was a terrorist group and planned more attacks
-They were in areas the US military did not freely operate, where arrest was risky
-Congress authorized the action

UPDATE: Trump’s Paramount allies the Ellisons are trying to block the Netflix-WB deal and take over Warner Bros (which includes CNN) with a hostile bid.

Trump does great harm to American farmers with his stupid, unconstitutional tariffs and then forces American taxpayers to bail out those farmers who were done great harm to by his stupid, unconstitutional tariffs. MAGA, MAGA.👇
