This Jack Smith deposition makes one thing abundantly clear:
If Donald Trump wasn’t re-elected, he’d be spending the rest of his life in prison.
And he should be.

Don’t you think they’ll bomb people on the way to vote in that so-called “referendum”? One would be delusional to think otherwise.

Bari Weiss censoring 60 Minutes to protect Trump is EXACTLY why she was hired. Larry Ellison runs CBS since he funded the purchase. See photo below of Larry with Trump. It's why Trump agreed to let Larry buy Tik Tok. It will be right wing propoganda on issues from US politics to Middle East

New Mexico is the first state in the US to provide free child care to nearly every family, regardless of income level or immigration status.
It just entered effect last month, but universal child care is already helping parents find balance and relief.
