NO DEAL ON ICE, CHUCK SCHUMER! The leaders of the Trump Anti-Democracy Militias are trying to destroy each other. GET OUT OF THEIR WAY
And thanks, Bruce Springsteen. He's recorded a powerful protest song and he's letting me play "Streets Of Minneapolis"

Thank you Bruce Springsteen for “Streets of Minneapolis,” a powerful tribute to Renee Good and Alex Pretti and to the strength of the people of Minnesota.

I hope that Democrats realize what’s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

The American people need to start protesting very loudly to release the Epstein Files. This is what will bring Trump down. His cult want him to be king and care less about immigrants. They have to condemn pedophiles. It’s their Christian faith. They can’t demonize us for fighting for the victims.

Donald Trump is leading a White House cover up of the Epstein Files. It is shameful that the DOJ has released only 1% of the files.

They will do anything to not be caught up in the Epstein files. No matter what lives are lost or who we have to bomb in the process. It’s simple if we find out the truth on the Epstein files the GOP and all of them are going down including the supreme court.
