If another country suspects that Americans have drugs on their boat are they allowed to blow it up and kill everyone too, or are only we allowed to do that?

β€œIt’s no longer a political calculus. It’s a moral and legal and Constitutional obligation of Congress to [impeach]. It would be a violation of the oath of office for a member of Congress not to push for impeachment when it is possible.”

Kristi Noem lied about an immigrant being a cannibal.

Of course it was all made up nonsense. Normal people didn’t believe it, just like we didn’t believe Haitians were eating pets.

This is part of dehumanization of immigrants playbook. Fear and hate is the point.

But it is indeed broken!

Good news though: it can be corrected in November.

Vote en masse; take back our government with a solid veto-proof majority in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.

End Trump's destruction of our democracy and filling his pockets with our tax dollars.

So Jeffrey Epstein’s rapists remain free while children as young as 2 months are being abducted and placed in detention.

The worst part about the Kash video is just how much of a DORK he looked like.

Reality is kicking in as Americans struggle to buy a home, healthcare, and even groceries as Trump and his buddies live the good life on the taxpayers’ dime.

One of the reasons why Trump is POTUS is because intelligence, education, and expertise has been devalued in favor of shock and entertainment.
