#Billionaires should not be allowed to exist. It is a distortion of the #economy and of the whole #society. Nobody should possess 1,000 million dollars. Nobody deserves to.

What has Trump got up his sleeve? Nothing is ever on the level with him.

The language Grassley uses here proves that he is a senile, captured dolt. It was ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for government officials to approve a full-fledged investigation into Trump's seeking to overturn the 2020 US presidential election to keep himself in power.

The lying and demagoguery from the Trump cabal is stunning. It is the use of "alternative facts" in a bizarro universe and it is antithetical to democracy.

*EVERY SINGLE DAY*
I haven't seen Democrats screaming enough about the ongoing destruction of our govt. They should have daily "shout backs" at a regular time, with electeds & guests, identifying the most recent Trump lies, abuses & crimes, and NOT in polite voices.

Texas Republicans voted to issue arrest warrants for Democrats who left the state to block the GOP’s congressional redistricting plan.

Most of the Democrats fled to Illinois, where Gov. JB Pritzker (D) made it clear he won’t enforce the warrants.

Apparently, The Cruelty is the Thing.

I would very much like to DEPORT Trump, Miller, Noem, DeSantis, Homan, Bondi, Hegseth and Patel. Let's look into their parents' and grandparents' immigration history and find a reason. They are a clear and present danger to the United States.

For Tapper to expose the mental decline of Biden without vigorously exposing the clear and present danger of Trump's decline and sociopathy is wildly irresponsible.
Jake Tapper’s new book claims Biden was in steep cognitive decline—and the media covered it up Now he’s accused of rewriting history to sell books, after downplaying those concerns for years Even Biden’s granddaughter called it “political fairy smut.” Full Article: www.facebook.com/share/p/1AaC...
