Candidates don’t have to accept the money! They can return it or donate an equivalent to something like a local service charity in their district / state.

Trump is lying.

I serve on the Intel & Armed Services Committees.

There’s no intelligence that Iran posed an imminent threat to the U.S. or the American people.

I don’t want to share the video because it’s pretty graphic, but apparently we’re at the β€˜Republican Senator breaks the arm of a Marine IN FULL DRESS because that marine was protesting the Republicans starting a war of choice with Iran’ stage of things.

It’s not just that the Administration isn’t answering questions about Iran.

They’re lying.

Trump's war on elections is hiding in plain sight False claims that foreign government interference caused him to lose in 2020 have been a staple of the diet of lies Trump feeds to his faithful.

Donald Trump is seeking to collect massive amounts of information β€” including personal and partisan voter data β€” at an unprecedented scale. He is trying to pressure AI companies into allowing unrestricted use of their powerful tools against American citizens. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran.

And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program?

This is incompetence. Plain and simple.

The air quotes around β€œMr Lewandowski is your β€˜special advisor,’ correct?” are brilliant. That’s my Norwich neighbor! But facts of this blatant and massive heist are stomach curdling.

Trump helps MAGA influencers flee Middle East war zone on private jet Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz, dogwalker Sarah Daither, former lobbyist Jay Footlik, and others managed to escape on a private plane thanks to the White House.

Politico: Trump is running out of time to sell his rationale for Iran war
Senior officials keep offering justifications for the conflict with Tehran that the president upends.

Love how the msm invents new rules for Trump. He gets to come up for a reason for the war AFTER he starts it. What a lucky little fellow.

D: Ruben Torres 2 weeks ago buried his daughter. When he was arrested at Home Depot, he said, 'Please. My daughter is dying.' They deported him. Was he a violent criminal?

Accountability Commission hears shocking testimony about ICE in Illinois The commission, tasked by Gov. JB Pritzker to investigate alleged misconduct by federal agents amid the Trump administration’s β€˜Operation Midway Blitz’ campaign.

Despite the lies the President and his administration want to tell, you can see and hear what happened for yourself when ICE ran rogue in our state.

No one is above the law β€” the Illinois Accountability Commission will hold them responsible.

Once again we are asking: Why was Kash Patel paid $25,000 by a company linked to the Russian government?

When a payment from a production company for $25,000 showed up on Kash Patel's disclosures during his confirmation hearing, we did some digging. And soon, the story began to unravel.

Federal judge rules Trump admin may not remove people to third countries without due process The judge wrote that people must receive meaningful notice and the chance to challenge their deportations.

Why did this take over a year? Not that it will matter because they are breaking every other law but seriously, sending people to a country they aren’t even from???
This administration needs to be sent somewhere and soon.
Bunch of crooks!

The fact that many have to resort to this to spread news is so scary and insane.
Certain social media platforms are monitoring, even deleting, posts that criticize ICE and other government agencies.

What the Supreme Court throwing out Trump’s tariffs means for you The decision may not lead to immediate price drops for consumers, despite the potential for refunds and changes to trade policies.

If Trump can help out his donors, he can help you out.

Put your money where your mouth is and start sending refunds.
