I think it's time for people to openly acknowledge that Trump just wants to kill people.

Don’t expect to see much of Trump over the coming days, he is above all else, a coward. He’s in so far over his head now he will just hide-n-get-high. Looks for a lot of β€˜Executive Time’ & planned little ceremonies w/no press questions. Call them on their BS.

Today should be your 38th birthday..
When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

If Iran has a full copy of the Epstein Files, they should release them. They’ll do more damage than any ballistic missile.

If Trumpβ€˜s attack on Iran leads to more terrorism against American targets, we won’t have to worry because Kash Patel has reassigned FBI agents from counterterrorism to Trumpβ€˜s mass deportation operation.

Oh wait.

The stupid Republicans in Congress today set a precedent: It will now be OK for Democrats, when they take back control, to haul ex-president Trump into the chamber to testify under oath about his many crimes.

Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are two lawless criminals who will kill civilians to distract from their own corruption.

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.

Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

Hillary Clinton warned everyone.

Hillary Clinton continues to send out warnings.

I’ll never regret voting for her and I’ll never believe that neither she nor Kamala Harris lost to the orange criminal tyrannical piece of shit.

Weird they dragged in Hillary Clinton when there's another First Lady right there in the White House who actually knew Jeffrey Epstein.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.
