Benny Johnson shows up 8 times in Sara Ellis' opinion, partly by capturing Noem and Bovino saying illegal shit.

xcancel.com/bennyjohnson...

On October 3, 2025, Secretary Noem spoke to agents at the Broadview facility before
they began their shift. She said:
When we leave here, we’re going to go hard. We’re going to
hammer these guys who are advocating for violence against the
American people. What they are doing is advocating to harm not
just you and your colleagues but your families and they’re doxing
your identities and victimizing people every day by the way that
they’re talking, speaking, who they’re affiliated with, who they’re
funded with, and what they’re talking about as far as consequences
for what we’re doing by protecting this country. So we’re going to
go out there and we’re going to make sure that there’s
consequences for the way that they’re behaving, and then we’re
going to prosecute them. We’re going to bring them to justice.
We’re not taking this anymore. . . . We’re going to give you guys
all the authority that you need to arrest these individuals who are
advocating for violence against you.
Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson), X (Oct. 3, 2025 1:05 p.m.), https://x.com/bennyjohnson/
status/1974174065985470970. Bovino followed up by telling the agents:
You’re going to be put in full effect . . . That crowd there is, is an
unsafe crowd on either side. . . . And when they resist, what
happens? They get arrested. So it’s now going to be a free arrest
zone. And, I’ll give them one warning that that’ll be for safety of,
of us and the Secretary to leave. So they’re getting it here as soon
as we leave.
Id. Secretary Noem finished by stating, “[m]ake sure that these individuals are not allowed to
conduct this kind of activity anymore.” Id.

Trump responds to a detailed report about his waning energy and propensity to sleep through on-camera events by calling the New York Times's Katie Rogers ugly

The Creeps at the Failing New York Times are at it again. I won the 2024 Presidential Election in a Landslide, winning all Seven Swing States, the Popular Vote, and the Electoral College by a lot. I one our Nation’s Districts by 2750 to 550, a complete wipeout. I settled 8 Wars, have 48 New Stock Market Highs, our Economy is Great, and our Country is RESPECTED AGAIN all over the World, respected like never before. The last Administration had the Highest Inflation in history - I have already brought that down to normal, and prices, including groceries, are coming down. To do this requires a lot of Work and Energy, and I have never worked so hard in my life. Yet despite all of this the Radical Left Lunatics in the soon to fold New York Times did a hit piece on me that I am perhaps losing my Energy, despite facts that show the exact opposite. They know this is wrong, as is almost every thing that they write about me, including election results, ALL PURPOSELY NEGATIVE. This cheap “RAG” is truly an “ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.” The writer of the story, Katie Rogers, who is assigned to write only bad things about me, is a third rate reporter who is ugly, both inside and out. Despite all of this, I have my highest Poll Numbers, ever, and with record setting investment being made in America, they should only go up. There will be a day when I run low on Energy, it happens to everyone, but with a PERFECT PHYSICAL EXAM AND A COMPREHENSIVE COGNITIVE TEST (“That was aced”) JUST RECENTLY TAKEN, it certainly is not now! GOD BLESS AMERICA & MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

The mainstream media have been concerned with the politics, policies, and propaganda of Donald Trump’s terms in office, but have virtually ignored the central question of his presidency: Is Trump psychologically fit to be president of the United States and commander in chief?

Trump and far too many Republicans are Greed Driven Power Hungry Crooks, Seditionists, Insurrectionists, Foreign Assets, Russian Propagandists, Perverts, Probable Pedophiles, Pedophile Protectors, Extortionists of the PEOPLE'S POWER, Cheaters, Liars and Outright Bad Actors with no moral compass!

It's really immaterial at this point. The criminal fascist cult has already stolen every data base that exists within government agencies including voter data bases.
