I was a White House ethics lawyer.
I used to advise people not to even accept a free cup of coffee from someone who had interests before them. And staff followed those rules.
I can’t even find the words to describe the scale of Trump’s corruption here.

Foreign countries are bribing our president to sell out the American people.
Trump family businesses made $187 MILLION from this deal, and just months later he gave the UAE some of our most top-secret AI tech.
They are selling our national security to the highest bidder.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

in addition to being depraved, i just got a vision of a 50-year-old rittenhouse still trying to dine on killing two people when he was 17
Kyle Rittenhouse was an honored guest at a 2024 gathering of Oregon Republican activists. This is the monstrously depraved tweet he sent tonight. These are the people who claim to be defending Christianity and “western civilization.”

There is no legal justification, whatsoever, to use military force against a NATO ally like Greenland.
If any military member participates in this without congressional authorization, they are following illegal orders.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.
Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

At this point, it’s foolish to believe Republicans will actually relinquish control if they lose the House in 2026. And it’s foolish to believe Trump will leave the White House if a Democrat wins in 2028. We must prepare for the worst when it comes to Trump & his party’s attacks on our democracy.
Is there even a 1% chance that Trump will accept the results of a 2028 election if a Dem wins, & will not attempt to turn this country completely upside down in Nov-Dec 28, employing every means available to prevent that person from taking office?
That’s the reason for No Kings.
