One thing that should unite all Americans, it's this: Congress gets full pay for just 50 days of work in 10 months, and, the BEST healthcare money can buy, for them and their families, while claiming there's no money for our military, and slashing healthcare for ordinary Americans. That’s NOT right!

As No Kings Protests grow, there is going to come a point where the republicans stop saying:

"I'm tired of these people. They hate America!"

And suddenly change it to:

"I might disagree with them, but considering how many of them there are, I see they're upset." www.rawstory.com/no-kings-267...

It's clear ICE is now Trump's Secret Police. This is not Immigration or Customs related. This is thuggery.

When Secret Police form, one of their main goals is to target any political threat to their staying in power. Targeted political violence by ICE is coming. www.rawstory.com/chicago-ice-...

Imagine what Republicans (AND NEWS MEDIA) would be like if a Biden militarized police force, operating outside of the law, shot a Christian leader, who was not posing ANY threat to them, in the head, while he was praying for them.

The double standard is OBSCENE! heartlandsignal.com/2025/10/10/c...

This is starting to evolve into a MUCH bigger story? Can we trust ANY breath test results from the state? How many drunk drivers did law enforcement just give a mulligan? www.startribune.com/as-questions...

BCA says it’s suspending statewide use of alcohol breath machines in suspected DWIs

The validity of tests may have been compromised because of operator error in several counties, including Hennepin and Olmsted.

Yes, not releasing information is quite different than lying. The man’s clearly had multiple “events”. That’s why half his face droops, and he drags his leg. But what will folks believe, this bogus report or their own lying eyes???

Well this report is full of shit.
Says “ he’s found to be approx 14 yrs younger than his chronological age.” 😜😂

“ DJT remains in exceptional health” blah blah blah 😜😂🤣

He looks like he’s on his last leg.

Unethical

It’s a brainwashed cult.

How that imbecile can have that kind of power over them. 🤦‍♀️
They thought his reality show was real. Since they don’t read, they refuse to believe he’s a failed businessman, scam artist, lying cheating convicted felon.

Surprisingly they do want the Epstein Files released.
