Trump has been in court over 3,600 times (losing almost always). He had NEVER faced a CRIMINAL court. Those were all CIVIL trials, where his 'punishment' was 'only' to lose money. Money that was not his. He is not a Billionaire, Trump is a Debtonaire. He is broke.
The @GOP's Orange Overlord used Giuliani to secure $2M payments for pardons. Hey @GOPoversight, here's a REAL crime, with real people, and real witnesses who actually exist.

We have a sacred obligation to care for the men and women who fought to protect our freedom.
This is how MAGA Republicans in Congress have chosen to repay them.
The reviews are in from DeSantis’ trip to Britain — and they are absolutely brutal.
DeSantis met with titans of British industry in an event co-hosted by Lloyd’s of London — the world’s largest insurance marketplace. And to say they were unimpressed is an understatement.
British business chiefs described DeSantis’ performance as “horrendous” and “low-wattage.”
But that’s not all.
One U.K. business figure said DeSantis “looked bored” and “stared at his feet.”
Another noted that “nobody in the room was left thinking, ‘this man’s going places’.”
DeSantis’ trip abroad was a complete and utter disaster from start to finish.
Let's be clear about what the bill passed by House Republicans yesterday would do. They are holding not just the U.S. economy, but the entire global economy hostage unless they can:
- Cut 30,000,000 VA visits for veterans
- Cut 22% of the VA budget
- Eliminate funding for Housing Choice Vouchers for as many as 50,000 veterans
- Kick 300,000 kids out of child care and Head Start
- Evict 400,000 families from their homes
- Kick 1,000,000 seniors off Meals on Wheels
- Kick 1,000,000 mothers & children off the WIC nutritional assistance program
- Eliminate Pell Grants for 80,000 students and reduce grant funding for millions of others
- Close 125 air traffic control towers
- Scale back rail safety inspections
- Eliminate funding for 11,000+ FBI personnel, 2,000+ border patrol agents and hundreds of police
- Send manufacturing jobs overseas
- Roll back Biden's environmental protections
- Deny 750,000 workers job training and employment services
They are trying to hide these details at all costs. Smash the ❤️, leave a reply, and retweet to make sure as many people as you know see this!
Wow. A witness from Texas just directly confronted her Senators, Ted Cruz & Jon Cornyn, during a live hearing, saying "I would like for them to know that what happened to me is a direct result of the policies they support. I nearly died on their watch." True courage & bravery.

If an honest Attorney General like Merrick Garland, or an honest prosecutor like Jack Smith or Robert Mueller sees crimes of this magnitude, they will take it as seriously as they deserve to be taken. NO MISTAKES. These criminals including Trump must be CONVICTED
Republicans have now put a rule in place to be able to object to anything @brotherjones_& @Justinjpearson say they don’t like. Then they can all vote to cut them off.
Don’t turn away. Democracy is being strangled to death here in Tennessee. Fascism reigns. 🇺🇸
BREAKING: A Florida teacher ignites a scandal by showing their students a video to celebrate "Confederate History Month" and to honor the "valiant, brave fight" and "countless sacrifices by our men and women" — the teacher suggested that the Civil War should actually be called "the War To Prevent Southern Independence." RT TO DEMAND THAT THIS TREASONOUS RACIST TEACHER BE FIRED!

"Even small victories challenge the standard narrative around climate change. We can say no to the idea of limitless plunder, of unjustifiable overconsumption. We can say no to the billionaires’ toys," Joe Fassler writes in a guest essay. https://t.co/nE4PMK8YD9
WOW. Rep. Justin Jones is leading a march with thousands of people back to the Tennessee Capitol building right now. This is what democracy & a movement look like. Republicans messed around & they’re about to find out. Sweet, poetic Justice.
@kylegriffin1 I'll believe they're serious about the importance of legal precedent & the need for predictability when they end all donations to all Republican candidates for all offices for at least a decade, to give Dems a chance to reform federal courts.
Until then, it's just kabuki theater
