Any member of the Trump admin that wants to run for POTUS in 28 who has defended Trump’s war in Iran and not spoken out against it publicly, has stood with the admin on the coverup of the Epstein files, and refuses to publicly apologize to the American people for the creating more inflation and high gas prices with the Iran war, will not be trusted.

64% of Americans are against the Iran war, and it is a complete betrayal of campaign promises.

The Epstein files are still not fully released, which has been one of the biggest issues the American people demanded in recent history.

Lowering cost of living and gas prices was a key campaign promise that had been completely broken because of Trump’s Iran war making costs of living even worse for the American people.

You won’t get to walk out on 2028 presidential stages with your anti-neocon tough talk and try to tell us this time will be different because all we will see is your blood stains from 18 US service members and children of the Minab girls school.

We won’t believe you when you claim to bring transparency and accountability because the Epstein victims will still be crying out demanding the Epstein files and justice they never received.

And if you utter the phrase America First claiming to focus on a domestic agenda, we will laugh at you because your pockets are lined with AIPAC, MIC, and other corporate pac dollars that always fight against putting regular Americans first.

YOU are in power right now.

End the war and bring our beloved troops home immediately.

Release the files and prosecute pedophiles and rapists, even if they are your donors and friends.

And put 100% of your focus on domestic issues that lower inflation, costs of groceries, and gas and energy prices for the American people.

We no longer live in the failed two party system and will no longer be controlled by it.

Both parties, no matter who is in charge, put us in deeper debt, continue to ruin the value of our hard earned dollars, and always drag us into foreign war after foreign war that feed the debt, ruin the dollar, and kill people.

It’s gross.

We are done.

We won’t vote for you anymore because the other side is worse than you, there’s no difference, both are disgracefully bad.

Approximately 45% of Americans are independents.

We don’t need the two parties anymore.

BREAKING: In a devastating speech, iconic actor Robert De Niro rips Donald Trump to shreds, declaring that Trump is “not a bad man,” but “an evil one” who is a “wanna be tough guy” and has “no morals or ethics.”

But Robert De Niro didn’t stop there…

De Niro continued:

“Trump has no sense of right or wrong. No regard for anyone but himself — not the people he was supposed to lead and protect, not the people he does business with, not the people who follow him, blindly and loyally, not even the people who consider themselves his “friends.” He has contempt for all of them.

The repercussions of his turbulent presidency divided America and rattled New York City beyond imagination.  Remember how we were jolted by crisis in early 2020, as a virus swept the world.

We lived with Donald Trump’s bombastic behavior every day on the national stage, and we suffered as we saw our neighbors piling up in body bags.

The man who was supposed to protect this country put it in peril, because of his recklessness and impulsiveness. It was like an abusive father ruling the family by fear and violent behavior.  That was the consequence of New York’s warning getting ignored. Next time, we know it will be worse.

Make no mistake: the twice-impeached, 4-time indicted Donald Trump is still a fool. But we can’t let our fellow Americans write him off like one. Evil thrives in the shadow of dismissive mockery, which is why we must take the danger of Donald Trump very seriously.

So, today I issue another warning.

From this place where Abraham Lincoln spoke — right here in the beating heart of New York — to the rest of America:

This is our last chance.

Democracy won’t survive the return of a wannabe dictator.

And it won’t overcome evil if we are divided.

So what do we do about it?  We have to take today into tomorrow – take it outside these walls.   We have to reach out to the half of our country who have ignored the hazards of Trump and, for whatever reason, support elevating him back into the White House.  They’re not stupid, and we must not condemn them for making a stupid choice.  Our future doesn’t just depend on us. It depends on them.

Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.  Let’s not talk about “democracy.” 

“Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it.  Let’s talk about right and wrong.  Let’s talk about humanity.  Let’s talk about kindness.  Security for our world.  Safety for our families.  Decency.  Let’s welcome them back.  We won’t get them all, but we can get enough to end the nightmare of Trump.”

Well said, Robert De Niro!

Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Robert De Niro for calling out Donald Trump — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKjCwX

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

I am 55 years old.
America is the only country I've ever known.
And I love my country.

When I was in school, I learned about the horrors of slavery. Sure, it was a limited education, but I totally got the gist of it.

We learned how people were taken from Africa, and how many DIED during the journey here, forced to labor in hot fields while being whipped, raped, deprived of education, and murdered.

In fact, when I was young, there was a mini-series on TV called Roots that depicted the brutality of slavery in horrifyingly explicit detail.

And then I did my OWN research, reading more books and watching more documentaries and movies.

But somehow, I was able to maintain my love of America. Despite all of the cruelty and brutality I had learned about, I was somehow able to figure out that the people alive in America today had NOTHING TO DO with slavery 200 years ago.

Somehow, I can still say the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the Star Spangled Banner, no problem.

But dishonest fascists like Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Ron DeSantis want to deprive American children of the knowledge of slavery, and African American studies because they say it's "propaganda leftist agenda" designed to teach kids to “hate America.”

That's a preposterous lie.

There are PLENTY of evils and horrors America is responsible for, and if you don't teach kids what happened in the past they may be DOOMED to repeat those horrors in the future.

Today's kids are being asked to treat as normal these "shooter drills" where the possibility of being shot with bullets that make them unrecognizable is a very real possibility, but we think they can't handle learning the truth about what happened 200 years ago?

If you ask me, those of us who learned the truth about America, and STILL love our country, are even more patriotic than those who are trying to whitewash it and hide the truth from kids.

Don't minimize it.
Don't rationalize it, with bullshit like "oh, it wasn't all bad because some people learned skills."

RESPECT THESE KIDS.
TELL THEM THE TRUTH.

[Frank Giugliano @f_giugliano]

When Barack Obama became president, little African-American children everywhere finally saw that they too can be anything they dream to be! And it was a beautiful thing.

And when Donald Trump became president, uneducated, racist, inbred idiots everywhere lit up with hope…because they too realized they not only can marry their brother or sister, but they too can become president if they get enough Russian support. And god, please help us.

[New York Basketball @NBA_NewYork]

Knicks QJ Peterson on IG: “Y'all want to hear my story on this whole summer league situation? Lengthy post:

“My agent calls me and says ‘Hey man I got you a minicamp invite with the New York Knicks, do you want to do it?’ (There's about 16 players there) I said ‘Of course let's do it!!’ Minicamp was 3 days long and played extremely well in front of everyone! After minicamp, I walk in to Coach Thibodeau's office and say ‘Hey Coach I just wanted to thank you for the opportunity to showcase my talents here, I really enjoyed it! I have one question for you. What do I have to do to make it in the league?” He says, “At your height being 6ft, you need to be a pest on defense, guard the full length of the court, dive on the floor, be everywhere on the court! Your offense is your strong suit, but your defense will get you in and you need to be seen more!” I said “Thank you Coach, it means a lot you took the time to tell me this” and walked out.

“I felt great after the training camp doing extremely well, feeling like I was the best player coming out of minicamp! A few days later, my agent calls again, says ‘Hey man they want you on their summer league roster but you probably will not get in until the last game. They want some of their guys playing the majority of the minutes and are younger and obligated to them. They understand you have six and seven figure deals on the table and understand if you don't want to do it. If you do decide you want to play, they don't want to hear from me the whole time that you aren't playing.’

“Now, I could have had an ego trip, and say 'nah I'm better than this, not accepted' and just kept it moving! It took me less than 10 minutes to decide on if i wanted to do it! I told my agent ‘Look, let's do it!! I've come this far, let's see it through, I'm just going to have to force their hand and make it extremely hard for them not to play me!! However, I'm here to do whatever they need me to do, whether I play zero minutes or 40 minutes, they will have the hardest worker, best leader on and off the court, and do whatever I can to help develop the young guys and encourage them out there! Whatever my role is, I will do!!’

“The Knicks let me come in early June 29th to start working out before actual practices for summer league started on July 4th! Every day I was there from June 29th- July 7th, i was the first one in the gym and last one to leave, every day! Every day Coach Thibs watched me do defensive slides full court every workout against the staff, incorporating offense into it, taking everything Coach Thibs told me to heart!

"First game comes in Vegas, did not see a minute of action, but was one of the loudest talkers on the floor! The best teammate, high fiving guys, helping young guys see the game better! That was my role for game 1! We lose game 1! Same goes for game 2 we lose but got in the last 3 minutes of the game when we were already down by a lot! The minute i get in the game I hit a 3 and press up full court like my life depends on it!!

“After game 2, Coach Thibs meets with the summer league head coach, Coach Dice and says yes you have to play these guys, but at some point winning has to take hold and matter! Coach Dice comes up to me the next day and says ‘Hey, be ready, I don't know how much you're going to play, but just be ready,’ and of course my response is, ‘I'm always ready Coach!’

“Game 3 comes, we start the game off losing, he subs me in with 4 minutes to go in the first quarter until mid second quarter, and immediately I make a positive impact on the game! We're clicking, guys are talking simply because I'm talking loud and forcing them to, playing together, huddling guys up together to make sure we're on the same page, picking up defense full court, diving on the floor, all the little things!! ENERGY AND EFFORT!!! We come out in the second and get down by 13 and puts me in and immediately I make a positive impact again and don't come out the rest of the game!! We end up coming back and winning this game, without having a great shooting night, solely off of ENERGY AND EFFORT!!

“Everyone is happy about the win, but more so happy for me, and credit me for the win because of the ENERGY AND EFFORT I brought off the bench!! They know how hard I worked every day, how I could have pouted because I wasn't playing, but instead stayed ready and focused on the game, encouraging guys, and when it was my time, they trusted in me, trusted my leadership and rallied behind the energy and effort I brought! My role was to bring energy and effort and veteran leadership and get the job done by any means necessary!!

“4th game comes and my message to the team was simple. Let last games energy and effort transfer to this game! You guys now know what energy and effort you need to play at in order to win games in the NBA!! Needless to say these boys came out hot playing together, everyone on the floor and bench all talking being positive with everyone, everyone is in tune with the game!! My role this game was simple, manage the game and play defense with energy and effort!! I didn't have a great scoring night, but I did all the small things out there and made the correct plays and brought ENERGY AND EFFORT once again and leadership!! We win that game by 10 or so!

“5th game comes, we start the game off very slow, 15-1 actually!! Didn't have it going early on, only had 7 or 8 guys playing, everyone is tired. I told guys, playoffs or no playoffs, everything matters!! This matters!! You get very few chances in the NBA!! Take advantage of it!! We are going to be okay, it's a very long game!! We continue to fight all game, not giving up!! Heading into the 4th quarter with only 8 points and down 13, I said to myself, it's time to step up, now!! Remember who you are truly! I tell Coach Dice the head coach, I'm about to take this game over! The coaching staff and players all were on board with letting me do what I've been doing, which is score! I tell guys, score stop, score stop, score stop, we will be good! One possession at a time, value it, finish every defensive possession with a rebound! ENERGY AND EFFORT will help us come back and win this game!! Sure enough we come back and even take the lead! Finished the game with 25 and had 3 chances to win it down the stretch and the ball just didn't go through! Everyone said to me after the game, we all wanted you to take those shots! You worked hard every day, you had it going, and you weren't afraid of the moment! There's nothing to hang your head about!

“To hear that from a group of guys who I've only known for 2 weeks means a lot to me! This entire summer league has been an amazing experience!! I had chances where I could have quit, could have had a ego, could have said I'm better than this, yet I choose to think about everyone back home, every kid in the stands, my family how it'd make them look!! I made it BIGGER than MYSELF!! No matter what I may have been feeling, I made it bigger than myself!!

“I turned a lot of eyes with different NBA teams at summer league solely off my ENERGY and EFFORT and affecting the game in a positive way by just playing hard, showing a great attitude, and being a great teammate and leader!! All the feedback received had nothing to do with me being able to score, it was all because of the things listed above, playing like my life depended on it!!

“What I want you all to take from this, no matter where you come from, no matter your height, whether you're 5-star athlete or no star athlete, always bet on yourself! Always be ready so you don't have to get ready, and be a great teammate and person! Do all of the little things. because the little things matter!! Find your WHY that makes things bigger than just yourself, to help you keep going when things get tough!!

“God....thank you!! this opportunity you blessed me with impacted a ton of lives other than mine and I'm glad you used me as an example!! Thank you everyone for all the love and support throughout this summer league!! Thank you New York Knicks organization for giving me the opportunity to display my talents on the highest stage in front of millions of people!!”

Dear Black Floridians, let me introduce you to just some of your Governor’s policies.

Florida teachers are required to teach that only 4% of “slaves” came to North America; that the founding fathers owned slaves reluctantly.

Also, DeSantis said that African American AP courses lacked educational value and he arrests Black voters.

Ron is not hiding his racism. #FreshResists

@krassenstein All the responses to this tweet exposes exactly why he made the statement to begin with! For blacks the past was a nightmare! Period! Don’t pick out just a period of time to bolster your opinion and say it was ok then! We should be focusing on the present and future!

Donald Trump is a criminal. I don’t know if he’ll ever be indicted. I don’t know if he’ll ever be convicted. I don’t know if he’ll ever be behind bars. But he’s a criminal. It’s impossible to listen to these hearings and think otherwise. He’s a criminal.
