Jared Kushner has somehow found a place at Coalition of the Willing press conference with Scholz, Zelensky, Macron, Starmer and Witkoff.

Kushner has no official position in the US government.

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

Five years ago today, Republicans launched a terrorist attack on the United States Capitol.

And half a decade later, voters have voluntarily handed them unilateral control of the government they tried to violently overthrow.

If you’re blaming Democrats, you might as well be on Trump’s payroll.

Trump: "I could have the most unbelievable four years -- and I guess I'm not allowed to run. I'm not sure. Is there a little something out there that I'm not allowed to run? But let's assume I was allowed to run. There's gonna be a constitutional movement."

On Jan. 6, 2021, bloody insurrectionary violence interrupted the peaceful transfer of power.

Today, America is still caught in an epic struggle between selfish forces of rule-or-ruin autocracy & the unyielding defenders of constitutional democracy all over America.

1. Hundreds of corps that pledged to stop donating to members of Congress who voted to overturn the election on 1/6/21 have broken their promise over the last 5 years

But we've identified 10 promise keepers:

Farmers
Airbnb
Expedia
Nike
Clorox
Eversource Energy
Holland & Hart

Five years later, these 10 corporations still aren’t funding election deniers

3X Colorado gov candidate Greg Lopez (R) is leaving the GOP to run as an unaffiliated candidate. Lopez says he's not changing his values and positions, which include a ban on abortion, ending the popular vote, and cutting education funding to spur teachers to "be creative."

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.

But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Denmark is a NATO ally. Talking about annexing Greenland is insane.

Every pundit, think tanker, “professional”, etc. who whitewashes it should never be close to power again.

I guarantee Lindsey has a boner while saying this. Look how excited he is. Our Constitution may be dying in some roadside ditch, but Lindsey, who has regular wet dreams about wars & invasions, is most definitely sprouting an erection right here on Air Force One.

This entire site seems to have been created to shield John Thune, the *actual* Senate Majority Leader, from any criticism whatsoever.

Y’all don’t even know the man exists.
