I can’t watch the news because it is infuriating that the orange guy has no accountability. I blame the media for normalizing him.

Yesterday they were shooting priests in the head with rubber bullets. Today they're arresting journalists. If you have anyone in your life who doesn't regularly follow the news and doesn't understand how bad things are and how bad they're about to get, you need to tell them right now. Time is short.

That’s the problem. don, the man involved in hundreds of lawsuits in his life, now has the DOJ as his personal fixer and the treasury for his payouts. Unlimited law services, open bribery, and a masked militia, all sponged off taxpayers. It’s a convict‘s wet dream.

How long are we going to have to pay for the orange baboons temper tantrums? How expensive is it to take every person to court that you do not like?

Eric Swallwell (D-CA) says it’s coming to an end and House Republicans are privately breaking, that a “jailbreak” is brewing the moment the Epstein files hit the floor, and that Trump’s aura of fear is finally cracking.
