Trump’s revenge is a house of cards. There is no plan, no future for the U.S. His anger over losing to Biden is focused on everyone, not just liberals. Will Congress ever take back their power? We the people have power, use your voice and protest.

A Honduran man with end-stage renal failure, Williams Javier Toro Enamorado, was allegedly told by ICE officers that he would not receive necessary dialysis treatment without signing a voluntary deportation order.

If you voted for cruelty like this, YOU are the one who should be deported.

DONALD. TRUMP. HAS. NOT. "BROUGHT. PRICES. DOWN."

Prices are higher than a cat's back...and every U.S. citizen knows it. His chickensh*t clown-show of buffoonery is over. America...and the world...see him as the con-man he is. Yes...even millions of Republicans.

The Trump administration pulled legal immigrants at the last minute before their naturalization ceremony. Immigrants lined up to become U.S. citizens in Boston on Dec. 4 were pulled out of line by USCIS officials moments before taking the oath.

While it has dropped from being a top story…Trump’s DOJ…recently pushed a ‘historical review’ of 2020. That’s code…for “rewriting the past to punish enemies.”

That’s ALWAYS a big story.

Watch closely. When autocrats…rewrite yesterday… they’re coming for tomorrow.

“Epstein Files” doesn’t just refer to emails or text messages.

Trump turned the Kennedy Center Honors into a 30-minute monologue about marble dust, HVAC units, and sending troops into U.S. cities, and somehow that wasn’t even the scariest part.
