It's not fair to form a judgment of Nigel Farage's character based solely on unpleasant things he said and did at school. He was only just getting started.

Lets explain how escalating/manufacturing a military confrontation with Venezuela gives the administration a legal “hook” to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, one of the oldest national-security laws still on the books. This statute allows a president to detain, restrict, or deport non-citizens

There are flyers circulating and even mailers showing up in people’s mailboxes in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District that list the wrong date for the upcoming special election. Voters are being told to vote on the incorrect day.

Trump's cabinet is full of hacks, but Russell Vought is running the show—and his plan is to tear down the administrative state and build a white Christian autocracy. Trump is just the bridge to get there.

And it goes on.
The man is completely unraveling.
Bombing boats, threatening invasions “to stop drugs,” and now promising a full pardon to a president convicted of trafficking 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S.
This isn’t law and order.
It’s the most lawless presidency in American history.👇
