Donald Trump is now giving a speech…pretending that this “Peace Deal,” isn’t really about a beach front property real estate deal.

Trump on Orban: "We love Viktor. You are fantastic, alright? I know a lot of people don't agree with me, but I'm the only one that matters. He's a great leader. I endorsed him the last election he had and he won by 28 points. You're gonna do even better this time when you have another election."

Literally comparing 1 million… to billions BIG DIFFERENCE! Trump after being given $1 million dollars, pardoned Ross Ulbricht, given two life sentences +40 years for Internet, drug trafficking/and a plot for kill for hire . did that money go to the US treasury? I’m thinking it went to Trump!

Trump was president on January 6th, 2020. So, is he now in late-stage dementia – or does he think his followers are exactly this stupid?

“I … met with the governor, met with the mayor, met with the chief of police, and the superintendent of the highway patrol. They’re all lying, and disingenuous, and dishonest people,” Noem said, because they wouldn’t back up her baseless claims that the streets were overrun with terrorists.

With the government shut down and millions at risk of losing their health insurance, Trump rides around his golf club, shouting to wealthy members, “Your taxes are coming down!”

The amazing thing about the SNL sketch last night was not that Ashley Padilla wore a scarf nearly identical to mine. It’s that I trust Amy Poehler as AG more than Pam Bondi.

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

Is anyone else thinking that Ghislaine Maxwell might have an "accident" soon? The more the press asks about her, the easier it will be to just have a convenient reason not to worry about what she might say anymore.

The reason why Trump can’t simply say “no” when asked if he will pardon Ghislaine Maxwell is he needs her to continue to cover for him. Giving her hope for a pardon guarantees she will keep her mouth shut about what she knows.

Will a reporter please do the research & then interview the Portland Fire Dept. to get the facts. The city is NOT burning. Easy to fact check.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.
