SCOTUS wont make their decision until 2026. That’s like catching a bank robber and telling them “keep stealing for another six months and then we will tell you if you broke the law”.
Mike Pence: I don't believe the Constitution affords the President the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs on friend and foe, and I hope the Supreme Court turns that around.
Ultimately, American businesses and American consumers pay the tariffs.

I agree it shouldn’t be, but being a 2nd wave feminist, I am drawn to Carol Hanisch’s concept that “the personal is political”. Supporting and fighting for the marginalized, minorities, and the downtrodden is absolutely political and I don’t see that stopping any time soon.

Sad to think that 77 million Americans hear what Obama is saying and think he’s full of shit, and just dead wrong.
Especially considering that Obama’s stance is objectively true on all accounts.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this.
But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

Step 1: pardon Maxwell
Step 2: release the Epstein files
Step 3: nearly 100% of Trump supporters will disbelieve any instance of Trump’s name in the files specifically because he pardoned Maxwell. Trump supporters unanimously agree that if Trump parsons her then Trump is innocent.

Let me debunk flat earth theory. There are zero valid arguments against it:
There are no known flat planets anywhere in the galaxy. The only way planets are formed is through planetary accretion, & through hydrostatic equilibrium, forms a sphere. There are no known models to produce a flat planet.

Why isn't Pam Bondi releasing the Epstein Files?
Over 80% of Americans want them released. Its the only thing that a majority of this country agrees on.
