I'm telling you... Trump is dying and his inner circle knows it. They're all flailing about trying to make him feel better by having his face on everything.

Rep. Buddy Carter: "Donald Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. That's why I'm introducing a resolution today that will honor him with the Nobel Peace Prize."

(It doesn't work like that lol)

I swear I think he's dying and grasping at ANYTHING to get his face on it before he dies.

He just wants one because Obama got one. And even the Nobel secretary later admitted it was dumb to give Obama one. They’re not giving Trump shit.

Folks, if ICE shot a pastor in the head with a pepper ball on camera, what do you think they do to people behind closed doors?

I am not a lawyer, but if that pastor is on a public street this seems like an EASY lawsuit.

Rev. David Black stood in front of a Chicago-area ICE facility and began to pray.

The masked ICE agents on the roof responded by firing pepper balls, with one striking him in the head

Look, I understand that you never want to be on the business end of what appears at first glance to be some kind of rifle.

I get that.

But this coked out motherfucker looks to be holding a paint gun with some weird-ass, flesh light "optic". If you're LTC, like some of us 😉, make him think twice.

What's it like living in Chicago today? This image gives us a strong sense of the fear that Chicagoans fear from Trump's secret police.

If it takes the threat of vengeful "god" for you to be a good person, then I hate to tell you... You're not a good person.

Trump 'knows he's dying' as he battles mortality again as he rants about heaven

President Donald Trump has fuelled speculation that he 'knows he's dying' after admitting that he wants to prove to God that he's good enough to reach the 'next step'

Let’s try this again it’s a new day. I’m bewildered that no one has answered.

Dear MAGA: why would Donald consider pardoning Maxwell, a sex trafficker for Epstein? Again a reminder, Biden is not president and you guys called for the release of the files repeatedly. So… why?

Don't give me the excuse, "This is a photo from the last time the insurrection act was invoked."

All CNN had to do was add some alt text to say it's a photo from 1992, yet they didn't. That photo is doing EXACTLY what they want.
