ICE Barbie Says an Entire State’s Worth of Officials Are “Lying” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is convinced, against all evidence, that Portland is a war zone.

“I … met with the governor, met with the mayor, met with the chief of police, and the superintendent of the highway patrol. They’re all lying, and disingenuous, and dishonest people,” Noem said, because they wouldn’t back up her baseless claims that the streets were overrun with terrorists.

James Comey’s indictment is a trademark tactic of authoritarians The former FBI director’s indictment breaks a principle that has protected American democracy for 50 years.

“I think Comey’s indictment is momentous because it tests a principle that has protected American democracy for 50 years: Presidents should not direct prosecutors to charge their political enemies,” according to a law professor who studies legal ethics.

I can’t get over this. Trump bailed out Argentina farmers with $20 billion of our tax dollars, then China turned around and bought soybeans from them instead of US farmers.

Not AMERICA FIRST, America got played.

Same guy who declared bankruptcy 6 times shut down the U.S. government 4 times in 5 years of being President. They wanted him to run the government like his businesses and that’s exactly what he’s doing.

Similar messages went up on other government sites, all in violation of the law. If you think this makes you look less culpable, Donald, you’re sorely mistaken.

We’ve gotten several messages that the Trump administration has tampered with federal employees’ email systems, making some people’s automatic Out of Office replies blame the government shutdown on the “radical left.” This was done without the employees’ knowledge.

We start with ranked choice voting, and hopefully, a common centrist oriented liberty party will emerge. We adopt democratic socialistic programming that works in Europe and scale it. We have one vote one person, and it can be electronic but has a fact-checking code.

We collectively solve fresh potable water for all first. Then food and shelter. Then, medical care. After that, we rebuild a system that outlaws financial lobbying and the Electoral College.

According to the presidential order, published today, 'The United States will regard any armed attack on the territory, sovereignty, or vital infrastructure of the State of Qatar as a threat to the peace and security of the United States.' The order further states: 'In the event of such an attack, the United States will take all appropriate and lawful measures – including diplomatic, economic, and if necessary, military measures – in order to defend the interests of the United States and the State of Qatar and to restore peace and stability.'"

So Qatar gets NATO Article 5 level protection, but Ukraine does not? This is raw corruption in action.

This didn’t happen under Biden because he believed government should actually function on behalf of the people, not actively work against them in order to benefit the wealthy.
