Such a valid point. Not that there would every be a right time for this degree of selfishness, but this is reeeally not the time.
Trump building himself a new gold-plated ballroom at the White House shows what he really cares about - which is definitely not you.

Nothing to see here. Just more evidence that Musk rigged the election for tRump. Don’t you think it was weird that Musk and Doge were granted access almost immediately? They were covering their tracks and mining all our information as a quid pro quo from tRump.
Minnesota Hand Count Uncovers 6–8% Shift in Election Results

This is a VERY well crafted lawsuit.
1) Plaintiff is natural born.
2) He was detained 2X in a fast-growing part of Alabama, not in a city that Brett Kavanaugh could be easily duped into believing was all migrants.
3) Unwarranted detentions were on private property.
4) He showed Real ID both times.

This should frighten everyone
Just five media companies control 90% of our media market.
But it’s not just media. In 75% of U.S. industries, fewer companies now control more of their markets than they did 20 years ago – leaving us vulnerable to higher prices and lower wages.
Former FTC Chair Lina Khan explains.

While Trump blusters about "law & order," a reminder that his administration has dropped or halted nearly 150 corporate enforcement actions.
And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.
The hypocrisy is staggering.

While Trump raises prices on Americans, he's grifting hundreds of millions in crypto projects—selling access to the presidency, rewarding investors, and pushing policies that enrich his family.
This corruption is unprecedented in US presidential history.

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

Regarding the attack on Dr Borrenpohl
I called yesterday into the county admin office and sheriff’s office. So many people did the same & it worked. Charges were dropped against her and the “security” agency had their license revoked by the mayor. Residents are calling for the sheriff who started the whole thing, to resign. We did it‼️
