Many more people need to be saying President Stephen Miller, esp around DC. I would think the thought that people found Miller more in charge would irk Trump to no end.

One thing we've learned from the American judicial system: The first 34 felonies are on the house*.

*Terms and conditions may apply. See prosecutors for details if you're not white. Or rich.

This was a month ago, when they first sent troops to DC. It happened. But MSM doesn't show these protests.

Today I talked to a customer service guy who did not know about the shutdown and said he doesn’t follow news and politics. I really think he doesn’t vote.

There are millions of them in this country.

You know what fascism looks like? Attorney General Letitia James getting criminally indicted on literal trumped-up charges by the criminal who she fought to hold accountable for the actual crimes he committed and is now using the full power of the US govt to seek vengeance.

There are citizens of the US who are begging for help because their communities have been devastated by wildfires, hurricanes, floods, etc., and the fed govt ignores them. But cities NOT asking for help? They invade anyway and assault peaceful citizens defending their neighbors. It’s disgraceful.
