Did the president of Honduras who was convicted of trafficking 400 tons of cocaine pay Donald Trump $6 million for a pardon?
It sure looks that way.

The only way to kick trump out of office is to win the midterms election massively else we are doomed. Because of Trump we’re now a lawless nation! It must not continue.

Chris Murphy: "Clearly this is wildly illegal. This is a president who has been operating illegally since he was sworn in -- stealing from the American people, seizing spending power, now dragging America into a war overseas ... Donald Trump's entire foreign policy is corrupt."

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

For those keeping track at home, so far in 2026—in just 85 hours—members of the Trump administration have threatened to invade or annex or otherwise attack the following countries:
🇨🇺 Cuba
🇨🇴 Colombia
🇬🇱 Greenland
🇮🇷 Iran
🇨🇦 Canada
This derangement puts Kim Jong-un to shame.

Yeah, people are fixating on a Cabinet Secretary being given a sovereign country to run because the president waged war without congressional approval and kidnapped the old leader. Weird that they’d get hung up on that.
WELKER: Mr. Secretary, are you running Venezuela right now?
MARCO RUBIO: Yeah. People are fixating on that. Here's the bottom line -- we expect to see changes in Venezuela
