If America was truly great, Donald Trump would NOT be president.

Come on folks. Give Trump some credit. It’s a lot of work to cheat at 18 holes of golf over 10 years.
First it was Iran to push the Epstein files off the front page. Then, when the Iran war turned into a fiasco, it was back to the 2020 election and Covid. Every crisis needs a new distraction.
The problem is, even if there is a process, it relies on people being transparent and the senate enforcing the rules. And that is clearly not going to happen in this regime.
This went a little different than his nightly interviews with Sean Hannity.
The business of America is not business. Neither is it war. The business of America is justice and securing the blessings of liberty. ~ George Will
A civilian medical plane went down after an experimental US military GPS jamming test reportedly disrupted its radar. Every person aboard lost their life. www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti...
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
At some point you have to ask why all the scared old white people are defending Epstein over the survivors.
Polymarket has millions of dollars in wildfire-related bets & more than $1M in beds were placed on the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires! DESPICABLE! THE PREDICTION MARKET PROMOTES THE OBSTRUCTION FIREFIGHTERS OR FOLKS TO GO OUT AND COMMIT ARSON! It's absolutely nuts!
There is no way that betting on wildfires should be legal. www.oregonlive.com/wildfires/20...
Once again. It's simple! The only reason that the Epstein files have not been published is that they incriminate the president of the United States, and those others who are in a position to stop them from being released.
Rick Scott on spending: "Government is the problem. It's not the Iran war." (Who is waging the Iran war?)
"Today, I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee. As it looks like on a party-line vote, we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general of the United States." Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse
"This is Iran's last chance." - Donald Trump, for the 57th time
Schiff: "The president is entitled to his own views about me or anybody else. He is not entitled, however, to use the DOJ to go after his political opponents. The day we say that's ok and the day we confirm an AG who says that's ok is the day the rule of law becomes merely an unenforceable idea."
America is now without law enforcement at the Federal level.
Congrats to BP and all the other oil companies raking in historic profits off the back of the Iran War.

LA Times: Trump finds a new way to screw Medicare members — hiking their drug bills. Mehmet Oz is canceling the Part D Premium Stabilization Demonstration, potentially doubling monthly drug costs for 11 million seniors. I'm now one of those seniors! 😠 #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Never forget: republicans not only sold their souls, they sold out the country, the rule of law and your freedom. It’s their job to rein him in. They chose not to.
it's not why *everything* sucks, but having all three branches of the federal government captured by thieves, abusers, bigots, and cowards is definitely why a lot of things suck
The majority of voting Americans decided in 2024 that insurrections don't matter, that corruption doesn't matter, that Roe didn't matter, that SA didn't matter....and that's why we are where we are. Period.
This is so true. Texans you have to turn Texas back to blue. You have to want better.
Summer’s almost over and Sean Duffy’s controversial road trip reality series has yet to launch, leaving corporate sponsors out millions of dollars and critics asking what the money was really for.

I prefer presidents who don’t have their accounts closed over money laundering concerns.
More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.
Cornyn justifies his support for Blanche: "That's one of those things that can't be remedied by a 'no' vote"
I don’t want to alarm anyone, but we’re not even half way through this presidency.
