“When the govt subsidizes something that means it’s not working.”—Mike Johnson. Why are we subsidizing American Farmers? Could it be Trump/Republican Tariffs were a HUGE MISTAKE? Johnson is a perverted sycophant spewing the party line.

This is a dark moment for the American justice system and our democracy. I have worked alongside Letitia James for seven years. She is as tough and as fair as it gets, and a leader amongst attorneys general on both sides of the aisle. I stand with her unequivocally in this moment.

EVERY OFFICER in the military knows that they are NOT beholden to a president but to the constitution.
They also KNOW the "I was just following orders" will not fly if they commit criminal/illegal orders.
Time we hold every officer responsible for their actions.

Read Lisa Graves book- Without Precedent. She details John Roberts decades long corruption going back to the south Florida riot that stopped the voting in Bush v Gore election. Also, Kavanaugh and Barrett have been right there all along on every decision to unravel democracy.

Countries and Leaders who condemned Netanyahu for committing GENOCIDE stood a better chance than a Predator.
