I testified on redistricting before the Texas legislature today and asked that they serve Texans, not Trump.

Exclusive | Jeffrey Epstein’s Friends Sent Him Bawdy Letters for a 50th Birthday Album. One Was From Donald Trump. The leather-bound book was compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell. The president says the letter ‘is a fake thing.’

Everyone in America needs to read this FREE—I’ve gifted it below—report from the conservative WALL STREET JOURNAL about Trump and Epstein.

Apparently the president has now threatened to sue the WSJ over this 100% accurate report due to how damaging it is.

What an awful country we are becoming.

Trump Should Fire Tulsi Gabbard. But He Won’t. She’s not doing her job—but she is doing what he wants her to do.

After the strikes on Iran, it's an even better time to ask why Tulsi Gabbard has a job in the Trump administration.

Bombing Iran is a great way to distract from how your administration is bombing elsewhere.

The Peace Candidate.

MAGA = Neo-Cons
Trump = Bush

And the reason for going to war with Iran is the same reason we went to war with Iraq: to HAVE a war in which we can destroy our own weapons and other ordnance so we have to SPEND BILLIONS TO BUY REPLACEMENTS

2/ Of course that was the reason why it was always truly unthinkable that shd be DNI, in addition to have zero intelligence work experience though she was adjacent to some intel work in the military. The whole story is one crazy piece stacked on another.

This is pretty nuts. I don’t care whether ur in the guard or reserves. DNI is a full time job. You can’t not be available during a major nat sec crisis. More obvious explanation is that she was close to the Assad regime and Russia and they may simply not trust her to be there.

Absolutely disgraceful CNN

Ok. Now he's awake. He's talking about someone being shot in face with a ripped out cheek bone. His speechwriter knows him well.

So far, Trump is just doing a stilted boilerplate teleprompter speech. How long before he gets bored and starts riffing on windmills and whales?

Wow, hardly any applause fo JD,and very little for Trump.

JD Vance speaking to a very low energy crowd.

What if he threw a $45 million parade and nobody came?

Boring. Low energy. Sad!

What made this country singer pick THIS song to sing at this event? He couldn't cover a Toby Keith song or something?

Protester: I’m going into fourth grade and I’m 9 years old

And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers “voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,” according to his best friend.

Tiny crowd at Trump’s military parade. Quite the turnout…

SAD!

Shooting suspect's roommate says he was a Trump voter YouTube video by KARE 11

KARE 11 TV in the Twin Cities reports that Vance Boelter's best friend says Boelter voted for Trump and is "a strong supporter"

LAPD is out doing what they have been doing all week --- being excessive as usual. But we really don't need CNN launching into hysterics about "violence in the streets." The cops have issued a dispersal order and there are some skirmishes. It's not a war zone. They need to stop this nonsense.
