People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

The Trump team knows the economy is going badly. Thats why he’s on the road and why they’ve stopped releasing jobs, GDP, and inflation numbers.
Good luck blaming Biden for an economy of the GOP’s creation with 70% of Americans saying their costs are up.

The Justice Department has started calling Immigration Judges “Deportation Judges.”
She breaks down what that shift means: for due process, for families, & for a system already weaponized against the most vulnerable.
