Franklin D. Roosevelt: "The only thing we have to fear is, fear itself." John F. Kennedy: "Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country." Donald Trump: “I looked at one hell of a beautiful ass before: Nicki Minaj. That's hard to miss."

It’s no coincidence that Donald Trump ran up enormous debts to banks (well over a billion dollars) in his business too. He defaulted on two multimillion dollar loans. And defaulted on massive debt obligations in *six* corporate bankruptcies. Pity the U.S. doesn’t have a rich daddy to bail us out.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

NEWSNATION: The Heritage Foundation has dug into this and they found a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of fraudulent voters over nearly 40 years of elections. Doesn't that tell you our elections are secure? SEN. MARSHA BLACKBURN: I have not looked at the Heritage Foundation data

The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate. Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...

Q: President Trump has railed against mail in voting, but yesterday he voted by mail in Florida. How do you square that? JOHNSON: Look, I think some states have handled mail-in balloting well. Florida is a good example of that. They don't allow fraud. That's not true in other parts of the country.

The US military was likely responsible for the strike on an elementary school in southern Iran that killed scores of children, the deadliest incident of civilian casualties in the US and Israel’s almost week-long war with Iran, according to CNN and expert analysis of evidence. https://cnn.it/4rjSsbc

MAJOR UPSET ALERT: Democrat Taylor Rehmet has just been projected the winner of the Texas SD9 special election — flipping a district that went Trump +17 and hasn’t elected a Democrat since 1991. Trump personally endorsed Leigh Wambsganss and spent days hyping this race… and still lost.

At the most fundamental level, the Trump admin is still treating peaceful protesters as the aggressors and the heavily armed government militias as the victims, even though Homan, Miller, Noem, Trump have spent months torquing them into a frenzy of hate and telling them they can act with impunity.

Homan: "I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March -- if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anybody die."

Filming the police is not obstruction. Filming the police is not resisting. Refusing to stop filming police is not resisting. Holding onto your phone is not resisting. Federal agents under this admin have zero respect for rights and liberties.

Just go to the bottom of www.ice.gov/detain/detention-management, click on the Excel file, check it yourself. Of the Jan. 3 population in ICE detention centers: - 26% "convicted criminal" — few violent crimes - 26% "pending criminal charges" - 48% "other immigration violator" (no criminal record)

BRENNAN: What percentage of those you have in custody have committed crimes? NOEM: 70% of them B: It's not 70% N: Yes it is. You guys pick and choose numbers B: Your agency says 47% have criminal convictions N: Wrong again. We'll get you the correct numbers B: Well, that's from your agency
