Open Hot Mic, this is corruption and yall gonna let him get away with it?

Why the News Media not reporting on this?
If it was Obama, Biden, or Clinton, it would be on the News Channels day in and day out, 24/7.. but not this PEDO, Rapist, Convicted Criminal, Liar.

Corruption is the beating heart of Trump’s administration.

Latest bribe paid to Trump comes from YouTube. Bribes also paid by Musk’s X, ABC, CBS, Facebook, and Amazon.

Those who pay Trump will have to keep paying. Those who fight him beat him.

More Days Go By, More Bribes for Trump | Opinion

President Donald Trump’s latest moves confirm his bribery and extortion machine continues to dominate U.S. government policy.

40% of US farmworkers (who FEED your family), are undocumented. Many on legal visas. 70-80% foreign-born. Millions of them HIGHLY skilled (few could do their jobs), decades of experience, critical to the US economy. Now being kidnapped/deported. Call for strikes in Ca to hold produce from grocers 🌱

"CASI workplace harassment"

As many as 120,000 migrants maintain the 32,000ha of plastic greenhouses in Almería - the source of much of Europe's winter fruit and veg - many undocumented and working in dangerous conditions for low pay.

Trump to Milei: "Do you need any Tomahawks in Argentina? You need them for your opposition, I guess, because in this country they use Tomahawks on the opposition. I don't do that. I'm much nicer. The Democrats would use them if they had the chance. They're sick people."

The rule of law means future accountability must always remain possible. DHS is implying that accountability itself is illegitimate - a stunning rejection of democratic norms.

Which chapter of Trump’s authoritarian playbook is this?
• Undermine Congress’s constitutional power of the purse
• Invite troops to shift loyalty from the state to a private benefactor
• Normalize oligarch rule over democratic government
• Blame Democrats to justify an authoritarian “rescue”

Trump: "I had a very wealthy person who called -- a donor, a great gentleman -- and he said, 'if there's any money necessary, shortfall, for the paying of the troops, then I will pay it.' Meaning he will pay it. How about that?"

Trump’s rhetoric has fully embraced the good vs. evil narrative. By calling opponents “the devil’s ideology” and claiming the left “becomes violent,” he’s casting political disagreement as a holy war. But it’s just dehumanization, designed to justify extreme measures against dissent.
