Donald Trump ordering his Attorney General to prosecute his enemies, on Truth Social. Seems he meant to text or DM her.
It's all out in the open. The corruption. The assault on freedom of speech. The weaponizing of the DOJ to prosecute his enemies, even when no crime can be found. All right there.

Last year, the Supreme Court ruled that government officials can't use legal coercion as a way to punish or suppress speech. The decision was unanimous. What Trump and Carr did broke the law and violated the First Amendment rights of multiple parties.

I didn't want Charlie Kirk's killer to be a liberal, but that's where we are*. Two excerpts from the charging document.
Full document linked below.
* - Unless you believe law enforcement is just outright lying here, which seems unlikely, as this will become evidence in the case.

4. High school friend saying he was liberal.
We don't know yet. Don't jump to conclusions.
There's disinfo on the left out there. Don't fall for it. Don't give in to confirmation bias.
And yes, the right jumped to conclusions right away. Doesn't mean we should.

Liberal friends posting that the killer is MAGA or a Groyper: Wait for real info. And understand that it's unlikely.
1. Registered 'unaffiliated'.
2. Casings had anti-Nazi, anti-fascist slogans.

Annual births in the US peaked in 2007 and have been dropping since. After 2025, most forecasts are that we'll see high school graduating classes start shrinking. America needs immigrants. One day, perhaps, we'll wake up to that fact.
