Merchants of Malice and Depravity. This Scalice fella is merely professing his loyalty to Trumpollini, doing his part in distracting us from the biggest scandal in history. Guardians Of Pedophiles aka GOP

Trump’s first months back in office have tested the limits of presidential power.

Now, the Supreme Court seems ready to erase many of those limits — embracing the “unitary executive theory”, a Republican idea from the 1980s that could make the presidency all-powerful.

NEW: A right-wing group known for pushing states to purge their voter rolls wants SCOTUS to turn a landmark pro-voter law into a weapon for mass voter removals.

If SCOTUS agrees, anti-voting groups could be empowered to sue states into aggressive purges with ease.

James Comey is not a GNAT to be gotten rid of.

Trump’s turned the DOJ into a revenge machine — staging show trials through Pam Bondi and a beauty-pageant lawyer. This isn’t law & order. It’s a dictator auditioning for absolute power. ⬇️

Trump’s Political Persecution of Comey is Flagrant Criminal Abuse of Power

CALLING DEMS "GNATS" TO BE "GOTTEN RID OF" IS A DANGEROUS NATIONAL DISGRACE

The Justice Department had 36 attorneys assigned full-time to investigate corrupt politicians when Trump took office in January.

Today it has two.

See how this works?

1. On Monday, Trump delivered a $70 million windfall to his billionaire buddy, John Paulson.

Paulson hosted the biggest fundraiser of Trump's 2024 campaign, raising over $50 million.

This week, Trump returned the favor.

Veterans and military families were cheated out $95 million in overdraft scams.

The CFPB made them whole, until Republicans voided the refunds and handed the banks their winnings back.

This is what “supporting the troops” looks like to the GOP.

How the Supreme Court could aid the GOP's redistricting games

With President Donald Trump flooding the zone with attacks on American democracy and the rule of law, it’s easy to lose sight of the damage that the Supreme Court is doing on its own to weaken voting rights protections.

Suggestion to you sir. Mobilize your National Guard and have them block the intrusion of out of state armed forces violating the rights of you and your citizens. Now!

Who should be in prison??? You can't convince me Trumpollini and his Fascist Flunkies aren't waging a psyops war upon the minds of our fellow citizens.

Doug Schwamb @4swami.bsky.social · 23h

Republicans? More like aspiring Fascist Flunkies looking to get a ticket on the Trumpollini's Gone Nazi Train. Loyalty to the Dear Leader is their first step and it goes from there.

We already know a lot about what is contained in the Trumpstein scandal but the worst is yet to be revealed. To fathom the all of the tentacles of corruption of Epstein and his accomplices could make your senses buckle. Floating on top of the cesspool of depravity and malice is a bunch of white scum
