1930’s Germany was a bad time in history, in 2024 history seems to be repeating itself.

Once again the world is fighting fascism and Democracy.

We cannot let the mistakes from the past ever happen again.

If Trump can do this to Comey and Letitia James, he can do it to anyone. This is authoritarianism. We cannot be silent.

So, when are they going after Senator Schiff? This is not how Justice is supposed to work. This is the absolute weaponization of the DOJ.

The time line the world are living in is beyond the twilight zone.

Trump’s attempt at dictatorship will come to an abrupt end, even many of his sycophants will turn on him.

1. Comey’s indictment
2. Tish James’ indictment

It’s all a distraction from reality, namely the Epstein Files

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Just like the Comer indictment, this won’t stick.

The counter lawsuits will be so much fun.

Schumer on the federal indictment of New York Attorney General Letitia James today: “This is what tyranny looks like. President Trump is using the Justice Department as his personal attack dog, targeting Attorney General Tish James for the ‘crime’ of prosecuting him for fraud—and winning."

For one to get the “Peace Prize” not only do you broker peace, but you also need to be an upstanding citizen, not be an adjudicated rapist, 34 count felon, and a 2x impeached pedophile.

Hitler didn’t order the Gestapo to arrest Germans.

Trump orders his Gestapo (ICE) against U.S. States and citizens.

BREAKING: Republican Governor of Oklahoma comes out blasting deployment of National Guard from Texas to Illinois. Calls it a violation of States' Rights. MAGA and Trump are increasingly isolated on this -- as they should be. We will not stop until this insanity ends.

Notice how quickly Charlie Kirk is not being mentioned by MAGA?

MAGA mourning stages:
- Blame the “left”
- Grift ($$&)
- Move on in less than a few week.
