The Oath Breaker/The Breaker of Oaths: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

This is so true. Texans you have to turn Texas back to blue. You have to want better.
They’re just showing how much suffering they can squeeze out of people who already don’t have much left. And the worst part is they’re proud of it. The cruelty isn’t a side effect - it’s the whole damn point. Read here: prospect.org/2026/07/31/t...

My blood just pumps and my heart rate increases, EVERY TIME I hear this song... Scotland the Brave. There is no other sound as majestic to my ear, anywhere on this planet... More than the sound of the bagpipes. 1000 of them playing all at once, could easily own my soul for eternity. 🏴Scotland.💙
Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
