Trump has done something most politicians have failed to do: be so corrupt that he's turned anti-corruption into a populist, kitchen-table issue for his opponents.

Masked agents pointing a gun at an unarmed American citizen and threatening her for exercising her rights is unacceptable. We need commonsense reforms to strengthen ICE’s accountability and transparency now.
Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

There is no legitimate reason for a sitting president to be in communication with field agents during an investigation. The Fulton County ballot seizure is entirely compromised and corrupt.
Holy shit. Not only was Tulsi Gabbard present for the raid on Georgia's election center, she called Trump and put him on speaker phone to the FBI agents conducting the raid! (Gift link)

"The Federal Government may neither issue directives requiring the States to address particular problems, nor command the States' officers, or those of their political subdivisions, to administer or enforce a federal regulatory program."
In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law. The liberal squish who wrote the majority opinion in that case? Justice Antonin Scalia: tile.loc.gov/storage-serv...

Moscow's propaganda machine has been hard at work depicting Europe as a "digital gulag," hellbent on suppressing free speech online. "Russian propaganda portrays any effort to combat disinformation as a threat to freedom of speech", says Jakub Kalensky, an expert on disinformation.

Another angle. Guy in gray approaches from right of screen with nothing in hands, searches the victim on the ground, comes away with gun. Gray searches the victim's waist, up the back, and then, presumably, a holster, comes away w gun, then shot fired. h/t @dropsitenews.com
The guy in grey disarms the man on the ground being beaten—BEFORE shots were fired

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

This is like Looney Tunes levels of criminal corruption
Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

Beautifully written; “He was a man so grounded in his values and his commitment to making the world a better place that, by his last years, in the current era of American politics, he seemed almost out of place. He had profound contempt for Donald Trump”
When I was a movie obsessed kid, I thought it would be great to be like Robert Redford. When, later in life, he became a friend, I discovered I was right…but for reasons I could not have imagined. www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/why...
