I’m extremely concerned by reports the Trump administration destroyed a facility during a covert action in Venezuela.

If this was done without Gang of Eight oversight, it’s a serious violation of federal law and a dangerous escalation that pushes us closer to war: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
Trump says the U.S. took out a 'big facility' in Venezuela amid strikes on alleged drug boats
The president did not provide details about the apparent strike, which NBC News has not independently confirmed.

Trump: I'm doing a magnificent, big, beautiful ballroom… we're under budget and ahead of schedule. Now. It's bigger than I told you…after realizing we're going to do the inauguration in that building

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

I’m going to need to see the declination memos from DoJ where they declined to prosecute the Epstein co-conspirators, and I’m gonna need to see them for every single person they declined to prosecute.

📢 Tell Congress: Visit ICE Detention Centers NOW
This is the moment for Congress to act. Delay only benefits secrecy. Silence enables harm.

It's disturbing that Trump is imitating the worst aspects of 1930's Germany when he tries to force onto the world what he calls 'American Views'.

Remember: the President either doesn't know who possesses a broadcast license (much like most of the dopes re-posted here) or does and says these kinds of things just to get people stirred up.

Either way, he's an asshole.

As the president outlined his plans to capture Greenland and hijack Venezuelan oil, his real agenda became obvious. It’s extortion, conquest, and theft. Remember when he was the peace president?

ICE showed up on private property without a Warrant and was sneaking around so when the one of the owners showed up he told them to get off the property and they did because they know that what they were doing was illegal and they're being watched by everyone now including Judges

I say his gently, but…

There’s something unspeakably shameful The United States letting people go hungry.

Not because its government doesn’t fix it —

but because tomorrow a few private Americans could, and never notice the cost.

That’s the part that sits wrong.

Private cities are why they want Greenland.

These will be the places fascists run to when they lose power. If you haven’t heard of the company Praxis or the other venture capital firms owned by people like Thiel & Altman, look into them! They want corporate dystopias like Night City to be reality.

I have a problem with this statement. If people “knew nothing”, why did they cut ties “before his crimes came to light”? Seems like an admission that many of them knew full well what was happening and did nothing, even if they wanted nothing to do with his sordid activities themselves.
