“Did you make a ton of money by hurting people before the law finally caught up to you? Are you utterly unremorseful? Then do we have the President for you!”
Trump just commuted the 7-year sentence of David Gentile, a private equity leader who helped defraud thousands of people out of some $1.6 billion, almost as soon as his prison stint began.

"I lost my whole life savings," one person wrote, adding, "I am living from check to check."

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.

Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.

Pure, mindless, barbarism.

By god I hope to live to see Trump and his pathetic goons in prison.

If we had a Congress this would surely prompt an immediate impeachment inquiry.

I love that my close personal friend Taylor is getting recognized for this. 🫶
Taylor Swift stands on the cover of ‘TIME’s Best of Person of the Year; Leaders Who Made a Better World— 2025 etched beneath her like a new chapter. Among changemakers and world shapers, she’s the lone musician in the room…… and somehow, the soundtrack to it all.
