This snippet perfectly illustrates why we need to completely reform the Supreme Court

Because it was a SCOTUS packed with MAGA judges-chosen by Trump himself-that shamefully deprived America of its rightful justice by granting him immunity and destroying any chance Jack Smith had to prosecute him
Jack Smith: I believe we had proof beyond a reasonable doubt in both cases.

JACK SMITH: “The attack that happened at the Capitol does not happen without Trump. The other co-conspirators were doing this for his benefit.”

Funny how there’s always “no money” for health care, food, or housing—until ICE needs billions. Then the vault swings open. If cruelty had a budget line, this would be it.

At 10 am on ⁦‪@MSNOWNews,‬⁩ I’ll discuss Smith transcript. He debunked the claim that Trump was just contesting an election like other presidents. Trump knowingly engaged in fraud and took steps to obstruct the lawful transfer of presidential power.

.. the fact that Trump's Jan 6 coup attempt didn't end with him in prison is perhaps America's biggest miscarriage of justice ever

ICE agents spent Christmas Eve arresting a man in a Walmart parking lot—even taking his already purchased groceries for themselves.

A bystander asked ICE if she could take down the phone number of his wife to let her know her husband had been detained. The ICE agents refused. trib.al/FwqJZki

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

RFK Jr. admits he instructed the CDC to alter its website to hint at a vaccine–autism link. That’s an extraordinary breach of scientific norms. This is not how evidence-based public health works, and it’s not “gold standard” anything.
