Anyone who is STILL supporting & propping up Donald Trump after he has BROKE more laws since his inauguration than the 34 FELONIES he was found guilty of, is not a follower, THEY ARE A COLLABORATOR OF BREAKING THE RULE OF LAW & OUR CONSTITUTION.

Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS - Bolts

Hawaii justices ruled that their state constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaiians—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.

Now they’re indicting Letitia James…the woman who finally held Trump’s feet to the fire. You can smell the revenge all the way from Mar-a-Lago. This isn’t justice…it’s payback wrapped in paperwork. And every American with a brain knows it.

Indicting your political enemies because they’re your enemies, not because they’ve committed crimes, is unAmerican.
