THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION OR RULE OF LAW! They worship money & power over others. We are being brainwashed by a media that wants outrage and division because it is profitable . We are divided along psychological fault lines. It is simply universal human Kindness vs Tribalism ideology.

This is what criminals & soon-to-be-sanctioned dictators do: set up a cozy personal nest egg in a country that won't extradite them & has no agreements that would compel them to enforce other countries' sanctions.

That's why sanctioned Russian oligarchs made a beeline for the UAE in 2022.
The main bank account holding revenue from the Venezuelan oil sales is located in Qatar.

Donald Trump is a criminal who should be in jail and not the White House. ICE is a band of lawless goons who shouldn't be allowed to carry guns or badges. And the citizens who peacefully protest the Administration's violence against our nation are the true patriots.

The fact is that engaging in “higher ground” oratory frequently means you are projecting. Yes, every accusation is a confession, and the bigger the front the bigger the back. Once again we need to remember that projecting about deviance usually is a damning self indictment. No pedophile protectors!

ICYMI — worthwhile analysis here. That above angle Trump used to claim Ross was hit was sped up to make the car look faster and hide that he was out of the way.

He wasn’t hit, he dropped his phone.

No wonder they won’t really investigate.

Nothing to see here move along. America is being attacked by the GOP with help from Putin. Wake up! tRump is the most useful idiot and he is supported by FOX news in gutting our democracy. Our enemies want to see us destroy ourselves. The GOP are just useful idiots speeding the process.
The Russian intelligence services intervene aggressively to attack a website that leaked the names of new ICE hires, proving that Kristi Noem was aggressively recruiting and deploying Jan 6 rioters, including the head of the Proud Boys, a violent white supremacist group.

I see we’re at the, “C’mon, the Alabama state troopers were really being treated disrespectfully at the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Also, a couple of them got scratches that day,” level of ICE apologetics.

"Democrats are in a content-creation war with the Trump regime."

Ain't that the truth. 🤷‍♀️

Unfortunately, most of their content is not.
Even a doomed-to-fail impeachment effort offers Democrats some distinct advantages. Remember: Democrats are in a content-creation war with the Trump regime.

There’s no reason an impeachment effort can’t be a kaleidoscopic panoply of Trumpian misdeeds presented to the public. trib.al/YciVpTR

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

Renee Nicole Good was murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just American democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.
