Senator Whitehouse says that Trump is doing Russia’s bidding so he made up a top ten list of some of the things that Trump has done just for Russia lately that are at the expense of American Interests. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Since Trump claims that it was “the military” that requested to use the arch to store sniper ammo & drones, these are the times when a Democratic majority could bring Gen. Dan Caine before Congress to find out from him if that is true & why. As usual, Republicans will do nothing.

Happy Sunday! Ready for some good news? Today I wrote about our country’s success in preventing the spread of rabies. And when we’ve really committed to it, we haven’t just contained this stuff. We’ve erased it. There’s a few lessons we can take from this and apply to our politics. (Link below)

Who is this clown?? Perry Bacon. LOLOLOL Better wake up, Bud.

Trump spent years telling Americans 2020 was stolen. Last night, he used the presidency to revive that claim—again without evidence. This isn't about relitigating the past. It's about preparing people to reject the next election if he doesn't like the result: open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

open.substack.comThis Is What I Gave Up My Political Career ForTrump’s speech was not about protecting elections. It was about undermining the very foundations of our democracy.

Trump just wants an army he can call his own.

Reminder that ICE whistleblowers have been warning for months that the agency's Trump-era hiring surge has led to dangerous recruits being given alarming levels of power. Watch.

Trump, who is at the center of the Epstein files involving the abuse of young girls, erected a statue of Christopher Columbus, who bought, exploited, and sexually raped indigenous girls as young as nine years old.👇🏾

Trump’s illegal domestic deployments cost taxpayers $496 million—and counting. Including $21 million in Illinois. There’s no money for health care. But half a billion to waste on intimidating Americans in their own communities.

Masking is not about doxing. That is the excuse. They are wearing masks so people cannot identify agents who engage in abuses, civil rights violations, and crimes. You can’t report someone or hold them accountable in any way if you can’t identify them.

Homeland Security sent a memo to Congress to explain the moments leading to Alex Pretti's death. In it they state people were told to get off the road. When they didn't they were sprayed with chemicals. How does ICE have the authority to control the public right-of-way? They are not the police.

I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story. An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

If Kamala had been elected Minneapolis would not have been turned into a war zone where people are gunned down in the streets.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

We're 8 minutes into Trump's speech unveiling his 'Board of Peace' and this is what he's talked about: - How many countries he's bombed. - How much oil he's taken out of Venezuela. - How large the US military budget is. - How he won the popular vote. - How much investment he's bringing into the US.

Why is this not ALL over the news?

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

This new whistleblower report is on par with the Zelensky call - not just because it’s violative of law - but because they also tried to keep people from seeing it. I’ve been doing this for a long time and this is absolutely explosive news. Impeachable and criminal. Swift accountability must follow.

Uh, sounds exactly close, Senator.

While Trump brags at Davos, real Americans are begging for help to afford groceries and everyday needs. See my full breakdown on MAGA’s collapse on YouTube, link in reply.

After illegally abducting Maduro, Trump has just sold $250M of Venezuela's oil to Vitol. John Addison, a senior trader at Vitol who helped broker the deal, gave $6M to Trump's 2024 campaign. Pay-to-play imperialism.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

If Joffrey Baratheon grew up to be an American president, this is pretty much what it would look like.

If given the chance, I'd lose my legs all over again to serve in our great military. The leader of your party is a five-time draft dodger who has fired more Veterans than any other president in our history. Square that circle then tell me who really hates our military.
