Trump now working to destroy another pillar of the modern world - the UN.
🇺🇳🇺🇸 The UN is facing financial collapse due to non-payment of contributions by member states, Secretary-General Guterres said.

He noted that the decisions not to fulfill financial obligations have now been “officially announced,” but did not specify which countries were involved.

This was posted in the new Epstein files release and removed about 20 mins later.

Wonder why that is.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

@cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @cbsnews.com has ceded its role as the Fourth Estate. It will no longer function as watchdog, or even function as a communicator of basic reality to the public.

Did you know the plaque honoring the Capitol Police had been taken down, even though a law was passed to always have it on display? Well, it's on display again outside my Rep Sam Liccardo's office! The other photo is the Dem Reps remembering Jan 6 today in DC.

Thank you @liccardo.house.gov!

This is what state-regime media looks like.

CBS News ran a segment gushing over Rubio — calling this his “moment" and saying: “Florida, once an American punchline, has become a leader on the world stage. Marco Rubio, we salute you! You are the ultimate Florida Man!”

The Trump White House marked the fifth anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection with an official webpage that claims the 2020 election was stolen (it was not), insists Trump supporters were peaceful that day (they were not), and accuses Mike Pence of "cowardice and sabotage."

The Supreme Court's "shadow docket" allows justices to effectively make rulings in secret without explaining their decisions. Is it any wonder why so many do not trust the Roberts court? https://youtu.be/xtiISydG9l0?feature=shared
