Geez, when Dems win, they are going to have to do all the Watergate reforms over. There is a direct line from the pardon of Nixon to criminal Trump.

Kara Swisher on Elon Musk and Democratic investigations, “He’s at the top of that list. Donald Trump obviously is at the top, and his family ... but Elon Musk is right up there for that ... He knows what’s coming. ... And I think it’s coming for him. And real hard.”

Elon Musk approached Trump and asked him to restrict Ukraine's use of a SpaceX-developed military satellite network, sources told The Telegraph. So, they both support Putin in his war against democracy.

Trump may fire his Ambassador to Greece, junior's ex-girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle. "We're not happy." The royal we. What's he waiting for?

My gosh. Mike Huckabee's top aide: —Covered up an embassy report on Israeli killings of 9 Americans —Fabricated Orwellian reports on Israeli settler violence & the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" to make it sound good for Israel —Questioned staff on whether they were “pro-Israel” or “pro-Hamas”

President Donald Trump on Monday said he would start paying for his controversial political ads after critics on both sides of the aisle blasted his use of taxpayer funds for the venture. #TACO

Look how casually Vice President JD Vance mentions the possibility of political violence (“kind of insane that we didn’t have a revolution”) when discussing white men’s grievances. White identity politics (white nationalism) is central to his worldview.

“I’ve never been in a race where I felt less control over the campaign and, like, what issues are going to matter because it’s all coming — you know — from D.C., ... I don’t control the message or what we’re doing.” Ken pedo protector Paxton.

Pedo protecor Paxton, said at a candidate forum this week that he welcomed data centers. "There’s plenty of open space in Texas,” Paxton said.

"The president of the United States is not all there, upstairs. He is so wicked, so deceitful, and has put in motion so many awful plans that it can be easy to forget." Andrew Egger

Proof beyond a reasonable doubt. "If asked whether to prosecute a former president based on the same facts today, I would do so regardless of whether that president was a Republican or a Democrat.” Special Counsel Jack Smith.

Since Trump took office, we have seen an increase in measles & food borne illnesses. That's by design. Trump & Republicans installed RFK, Jr. & undercut food inspections. Vote for Democrats who want you to live. Republicans don't care. You are an impediment to their aims.

If a politician takes money from weapons manufacturers, don't be surprised when they back weapons contracts. If a politician takes money from Big Pharma, don't be surprised when they try to stop guaranteed healthcare. That's why I don't take ANY corporate money. None.

"So Trump’s megalomania and narcissism are increasingly out of control. ... And the elites’ [business, universities, and giant law firms] accommodation is as widespread and their acquiescence as entrenched as ever." William Kristol

"I suggest Americans anticipate a costlier holiday season as it appears diesel prices could continue climbing as geopolitical tensions continue to remain a main factor." Patrick DeHaan, head of petroleum analysis, Gas Buddy.

Trump posted on social media that Kennedy Center renovations couldn't take place unless the court approved the addition of his name to the building.

Venezuela: piracy as foreign policy. "Did Trump take the oil and the money from the oil? Bessent refuses to say. Trump refuses to say. Nobody, in fact, in the Trump regime will tell us where that money is or who controls it." Thom Hartmann

A survey released this week found 63% of voters would oppose a data center in their community, while 51% say new data centers are generally bad for the country — only 20% say they’re good.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick made more than $250 million last year. Much of the money came from the sale of his stake in Cantor Fitzgerald, the investment bank he ran prior to his appointment by Trump.

Trump: "A friend of mine called up. He said, ‘You know, really, we should use the word jihadist because that’s what’s happening.'"

BBC lawyers are moving to subpoena Don Jr., Ivanka, and Jared Kushner in Trump’s $10B defamation case, arguing the trio can speak to what Trump really intended when he addressed the crowd at the Ellipse on Jan. 6, 2021

Trump said that he is unhappy with the Supreme Court over tariffs. 'The Supreme Court didn't want to save our country with one sentence, $165 billion, and we're giving a lot of that money back to people that hate our country." People who are Americans, he means.
