Here is Robert De Niro’s full statement about how Donald Trump should NEVER be president again:
“I’ve spent a lot of time studying bad men. I’ve examined their characteristics, their mannerisms, the utter banality of their cruelty.
Yet there’s something different about Donald Trump. When I look at him, I don’t see a bad man. Truly.
I see an evil one.
Over the years, I’ve met gangsters here and there. This guy tries to be one, but he can’t quite pull it off. There’s such a thing as “honor among thieves.” Yes, even criminals usually have a sense of right and wrong.
Whether they do the right thing or not is a different story — but — they have a moral code, however warped.
Donald Trump does not. He’s a wannabe tough guy with no morals or ethics. 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.
We New Yorkers got to know him over the years that he poisoned the atmosphere and littered our city with monuments to his ego. We knew first hand that this was someone who should never be considered for leadership. We tried to warn the world in 2016.
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 we 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? I know I’m preaching to the choir here. What we’re doing today is valuable, but 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, and fulfill the mission of this “Stop Trump Summit.”
Do you agree with Seth Myers’ comments about former President Donald Trump?
“F—k this dipsh-t. Racist doofus thinks he can swoop in and set up a dictatorship in 2024 despite having, like, nine sets of handcuffs on him.
Trump dances on stage like a guy in a locker room who’s trying to towel off his ball sack. But he is very much planning on completing his authoritarian takeover if he wins in 2024, and it’s clear he’s got the support of the Republican party, which has become a movement fundamentally opposed to democracy.”
Is there a danger that the man who once allegedly told aides that he wanted to remain in power even if he lost in 2020, becomes president once more?
BREAKING: Florida Judge Aileen Cannon snaps at Special Counsel Jack Smith with a testy response to Smith’s filing warning Judge Cannon not to be “manipulated” by Donald Trump into delaying his trial until after the 2024 election.
Today, Judge Aileen Cannon fired back at Smith, shamelessly telling Smith that she’s didn’t even bother to read his filing because it is 19 words too long.
Judge Cannon told Special Counsel Smith that his filing “may not exceed 200 words” — and then put Smith on notice that if he submits any more filings that are too long for her liking, “it will be stricken without further notice."
Clearly, this is just another naked attempt by Judge Cannon to play dumb and help Trump delay his trial until after the election.
Instead of responding to the content of Smith’s filing, which attempted to warn her that Trump was doing everything in his power to delay Smith’s other trial in D.C., Judge Cannon decided to attack the messenger.
Her true intentions couldn’t by ANY clearer.

BREAKING: A top Senate Democrat levels a deadly serious accusation at MAGA Senator Tommy Tuberville and says that he is directly responsible for the Marine Corps commandant's recent medical emergency.
This is the kind of thing that could destroy a politician's career...
According to Senate Armed Services Chair Jack Reed, Tuberville's petulant refusal to confirm top military promotions — which he is using to demand that the Pentagon repeal crucial abortion policies — could be partially responsible for the hospitalization of General Eric Smith, a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Tuberville's political stunt has forced several top military officer to do multiple jobs, which is in turn driving some of them to the point of exhaustion. General Smith was hospitalized over the weekend for an apparent heart attack.
"One of the reasons, I think contributed to his condition was he was doing two jobs at once," said Senator Reed. "I’ve read where he was working from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. As a result, if he had, as is normal, an assistant, he could switch off."
Reed said the incident with General Smith shows "the fallacy and the danger" of Tuberville’s anti-abortion tactics.
Clearly, Tuberville believes that pandering to his far-right religious voters is more important than keeping America safe. He is sabotaging our military to score points with the theocrats.
Tommy Tuberville is a disgrace to America.

BREAKING: The New York Times reports that Trumper Congresswoman Lauren Boebert just got into a “shouting incident” in front of reporters as Boebert “raged” at her fellow Republican members of Congress who voted against Jim Jordan’s speakership bid.
It all started when “Republican lawmakers were giving statements to the press about the state of the election for speaker.”
The New York Times reports that, at this point, just as Virginia Congresswoman Jen Kiggans, a Biden-district Republican who opposed Jordan’s bid, told reporters that she looked forward to members coalescing around a new candidate, Boebert interrupted her and “raged just behind her,” screaming at Kiggans’ direction, “These holdouts are responsible for Congress not working right now!”
According to reporters, Boebert’s angry screaming caught Congresswoman Kiggans off-guard, leading Kiggans to give Boebert “a dirty look.”
Boebert continued to rage over Jordan’s failed bid to become Speaker of the House before being whisked away by her staffers in order to save her from any further embarrassment — but the damage was done.
It’s a truly sad state of affairs for the Republican Party when it’s being led by a former President who has been indicted on over 91 different crimes, a man who helped cover up a massive sexual abuse scandal, and an unhinged 36-year-old grandma who has been arrested on three separate occasions.

Republicans are obstructing the entire legislative agenda in the House.
Rand Paul is preventing the confirmation of ambassadors and diplomats.
JD Vance is impeding Department of Justice appointments.
Tommy Tuberville is hindering military preparedness.
Josh Hawley is stalling Army promotions.
It's as if they don't want a well-functioning government, “We the people” means something entirely different to these people.
Since Nancy Mace said today she didn’t know anything about this, and since Jim Jordan appears to be lining up the votes for Speaker, this was the Captain of his wrestling team begging the OH legislature to extend the statute of limitations because of his coverup but they refused.
BREAKING: Donald Trump's chances for prison skyrocket as bombshell reporting reveals that he recklessly discussed sensitive intelligence about U.S. nuclear submarines with a foreign billionaire at Mar-a-Lago.
And it gets even worse...
According to source familiar with the matter, Trump shared the submarine information with an Australian billionaire who then shared it with scores of others including at least a dozen foreign officials, his own employees, and even a handful of curious journalists.
This wasn't an intelligence leak, it was a flood.
The stunning allegation was reported to Special Counsel Jack Smith who is currently investigating Trump's illegal smuggling and hoarding of classified documents at his Florida compound.
Prosecutors and the FBI have repeatedly interviewed the billionaire in question, Mar-a-Lago member Anthony Pratt, and he was the one who spilled the beans on Trump.
Pratt claimed that during a conversation with Trump, he mentioned the American submarine fleet. The ex-president then got excited, leaned closer to be stealthy, and told him two crucial pieces of information about U.S. submarines:
1) The exact number of nuclear warheads they carry.
2) Exactly how close they can get to a Russian submarine without detection.
This information would be EXTREMELY useful to America's adversaries and is something Trump should never have revealed.
Pratt then went on to share the information with at least 45 other people via emails and conversations.
Enough is enough. The longer Trump remains a free man, the more secret information he will be able to reveal. It's time to lock him up for good.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is caught in a jaw-dropping fake event scandal as it's revealed that the rally he supposedly held for autoworkers and union members in Michigan was a complete farce.
This is bad, even for a reality television host...
According to credible reporting by The Detroit News, the crowd at the event was DEEPLY suspicious. Their reporter attended the rally and discovered that one of the women holding a "union members for Trump" sign wasn't actually a union member.
In fact, it's unclear if any of the people in the crowd belong to a union.
Another attendee holding an "auto workers for Trump" sign admitted that he was not a union worker. Again, it's unclear how many people present were actually workers at all.
The event drew only 500 or so people — either actors or just fanatical Trump supporters — and the automotive parts supplier where it was held is a non-union shop with just 150 workers.
In other words, Donald Trump meticulously constructed a ruse to convince voters that he is pro-worker despite belonging to a party that solely defends the interests of bosses and corporations.
The charade contrasts sharply with Joe Biden who appeared on the picket line in solidarity with the United Auto Workers Union which currently has 18,300 workers on strike. It was the first time in history that a president has joined a picket.
Shawn Fain, the President of United Auto Workers, refused to meet with Trump and correctly stated that the ex-president "serves the billionaire class" and said that his decision to appear at a non-unionized facility a "pathetic irony."
Donald Trump is trying to trick pro-union and pro-worker voters to support him in 2024. Unfortunately for him, they see right through his lies.
