Trump on Portland: "It's like the movies you see for the kids, I guess not only the kids, adults also, where you have these bombed out cities and these bombed out people. It's like, worse than that."

This is the President not only purporting to arrogate unto himself the ability to “take away free speech rights,” but also to do so for speech because it “aggravates and irritates.”

The bottom line is these people running our country are literally foreigners to the concept of democracy.

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

Trump: "They've had hundreds of people shot and then a guy like Pritzker or this low IQ mayor gets up -- the people are all against him. Beautiful Black women are wearing a MAGA hat last night on TV. And they said, 'We don't care who comes, just stop the crime.' They don't care if it's military."

The vindictive prosecutions of political enemies are not a distraction from the Epstein files - they’re one and the same: wielding the power of the DoJ to persecute your foes AND to protect your friends.

Russ Vought Is Going to Damage Trump Even More Than Elon Musk Did

Americans, and even many Republicans in Congress, don’t like it when an unelected bureaucrat makes huge cuts to the government.

Big Oil should pay for making life more expensive in Minnesota

Congress shouldn't buckle from pressure to grant Big Oil legal immunity from lawsuits that seek accountability for climate change damage.

Merrick Garland green-lit the search of Mar-a-Lago. It happened in August 2022 three months before Jack Smith was appointed. Jack Smith was in the Netherlands at the Hauge prosecuting Kosovo war crimes when Mar-a-Lago was searched. Eric should have listened to my podcast.

It's weird that Republicans wanted Hillary Clinton locked up for "running a child sex ring in a pizza parlor basement," yet when Trump and Epstein literally ran a child sex ring out of Mar-a-Lago, they don't see the problem.
