Trump: "Please remember I wrote Osama bin Laden exactly one year ago, one year before he blew up the World Trade Center. And I said, 'You gotta watch Osama bin Laden!' ... I gotta take a little credit."

I’m sorry but I really have to stand up for myself and independent media here. Everyone is crediting Ken Delanian for the Maxwell sex offender waiver story, but I was hours ahead of him. Hours. Independent media is important.

I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...
There was no "missing minute" in the original Epstein jail video, government source says
FBI officials promised raw, unaltered video to quell speculation about Epstein's suicide.

Trump: People were taken out of the spa, hired by Epstein… I told him we don’t want you taking our people, whether it’s spa or not spa. He did it again, I said out of here.
Reporter: Was one of the stolen people Virginia Giuffre?
Trump: I think so. He stole her.

The pilots…personal opinions aside, live for this. It’s been the primary focus of their lives for many years. It’s what they train to do. They get the order, they do it..and after they do, they’re not complaining about it to the White House.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022.
That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations.
So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?

No offense to anyone, but if you don’t instantly see how straight-up evil the Trump administration is being here you weren’t raised right
This man isn’t in a gang, has no criminal record, was never charged with crimes pre-Trump, and everyone involved in this *scam* well knows it

How many of you believe that what has been reported as an assassination attempt in Butler was something that was part of something darker and wider-reaching, and that the American people do not have the truth about what actually happened?
