Donald Trump has floated canceling the midterms and invoking the Insurrection Act. This is nuts. We are no longer living in a democracy and it’s the silent Republicans in Congress who are going to be responsible for the destruction of our nation if they continue to do nothing...

Nothing to see here folks, just a sitting president investing in two companies whose merger he claims sole authority to approve or reject. Totally normal! 🙃

There is a reason he’s forced to cause all of this chaos. He has NO PLAN. He funds no programs, no healthcare, no education, no lower prices, money coming in only supports more chaos. He envies other dictators. I challenge ANYONE to tell me just one single thing he’s accomplished? Discussion open

A reminder that the Epstein files still haven't been released in accordance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. And the DOJ has now claimed that Congress has no right to appoint a Special Master to compel their release. Corrupt regime is corrupt.

Release the files.

Wildfires are becoming too big a threat for any single homeowner, neighborhood, or even firefighting squad to just play defense. The fight is now collective and starts from the ground up, when homes are built.

As you already well know by now, it's all lies.

Every single thing anyone in this entire administration says is a lie.

All of it.
