I'm shocked... that 89% of Repubs still approve of the most corrupt president in history.
"half a billion dollars in contributions from 346 donors. Some have received pardons, jobs, access to the president and other valuable gains."

BRENNAN: What are you going to do to force DOJ to comply?
MASSIE: The quickest way and most expeditious way to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent contempt against Pam Bondi. That doesn't require going through the courts. We're drafting that right now.

Predictably and openly screwing the gullible MAGA people that voted for him and rewarding them with his insane tariffs, driving grocery prices and just about everything UP in price.

"The Portland Chicken" Jack Dickinson was among the peaceful protesters met with brutal force at a demonstration outside an ICE building. He's suing the Trump administration with help from the ACLU of Oregon.
No matter how you dress, you have the right to protest without government retaliation.

He leaned right in high school. Now he's the Trump-trolling Portland Chicken.
The protests against ICE gave Jack Dickinson a taste of national celebrity, but more important they gave him a community he'd never had before.

Today is the deadline to release the Epstein files. The DOJ is refusing to comply.
This is about justice for survivors and holding participants and co-conspirators accountable.
The Epstein Files Act is the law, not a suggestion.
