More than half of ALL government shut down days in the history of America have come under just one president.

Simply put, the man is a terrible leader.

Americans are fed up with the political establishment and an economy rigged against the working class.

Zohran Mamdani understands this well. Democratic leadership should be supporting him.

Sending billions to Argentina while laying off Americans at home.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

Phones and communication devices are hidden until someone is able to calm the fool down. Either that or he doesn’t know and is still watching looped video of Portland and Chicago burning.

Wow. Incite a riot. Kill some brown people in the Caribbean AND joke about it. Rape some kids. Break every ethics rule to make millions/billions in crypto. Christ. Not a single bit of pushback! But. Let’s get the intelligent black woman for saving less than 1% on a mortgage renewal. America? Really!

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Mtg and Joe showing some compassion. Or do they know something we don’t and are trying to get ahead of it. Seems like some self preservation at work here as well. Who knows who will be left standing when the chips fall.

It would be funny. It it isn’t. Ask yourself why? There is no reason for this man to be there except to help dismantle America. Ask yourself who wants America to destroy itself from within?
