Wish it wasn't so
Amazon dropped $75M on the Melania doc — with a big chunk going into the Trumps' pockets.
Since then, Amazon Web Services got a $580M Pentagon contract.
And this week, Pete Hegseth visited Blue Origin facilities as the DoD overhauls how it hands out defense contracts.
Always follow the money.

We have been told for years that regular mass shootings are a price we have to pay for the 2A to protect us from tyrannical govt. Today those exact same people who have told us this are applauding the *mere possession* of a permitted handgun being used to justify an execution by federal agents.

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth:
“ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king.
This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

Doesn't this dissolve everything I learned in government 101 about checks and balances ?
And now, after Trump’s dictator-like move in the U.S. yesterday, he signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Today is just wow.
Trump - with his devotion to Putin, abandonment of Ukraine, and lies about history- is the antithesis of everything Ronald Reagan stood for. He is aligning America with the enemies of the very freedom that generations have fought and died to defend.

The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight.
It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.
