This is Trump's America now. He'll probably get promoted next week.

The protection of child-rapists from members of the largest crime syndicate in the country continues doing what they do best, causing pain and destruction.

The Senate is still meeting and holding votes as normal despite the shutdown.

The House has not held a vote in a month and a half now solely because Mike Johnson wants to prevent the release of the Epstein Files.

In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.
