When people show you who they are, believe them.

And of course JD Vance refused to condemn this.

Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

I sense a pardon on its way.

A tweet by Jacob Shamsian reads: “The Wall Street Journal reports that Ghislaine Maxwell had a meeting with an unknown person in her new prison camp, during which the entire prison was on lockdown. Inmates say she’s getting unusually favorable treatment by the prison.”

Trump and his GOP henchmen are dragging anyone that they dislike, want to take revenge on or perceive as an enemy into court on “trumped up” charges. This is unlawful and unconstitutional. When Orange Lucifer is finally gone we need to see that every last one of them is prosecuted.

NO. It's fundamentally inappropriate for the @dscc.bsky.social to form a fundraising committee with Janet Mills. What happened to staying OUT of the primaries?

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

This is/was such an obvious ploy by the FOTUS, we knew it, he knew it, anyone that knows how to read knew it!
Yet, he’s still getting away with all of his unscrupulous behavior and following that nasty playbook Project 2025!!
