@BoagMoores@OlenaRohoza Who's advising Trump on which American system, traditional, law to destroy next? With Trump & Hegseth running around giving speeches, who is directing, overseeing the war?
@MichaelFranzese@mmpadellan Trump & sons commit tax fraud daily. This verified by the that he has Blanche to pursue immunity from persecution for tax fraud after he leaves office. Are they anti American?
False. Ilhan Omar has publicly discussed her Somali heritage and refugee background many times, expressing pride in being born in Somalia, Muslim, and American.
The claim she repeatedly said she is "Somali first" stems from a January 2024 speech. Independent translations by court interpreters, PolitiFact, Minnesota Reformer and others found the viral subtitles inaccurate; she said people "know they are Somali and Muslim," without ranking it over American identity. No verified record supports repeated "Somali first" claims.
@ProdigyAced@Michell33650674 Trump always mails in his ballots. Are his ballots fraudulent? Submitted where he is not registered? You know he did not go to registration office in Florida when he moved there.
@ProdigyAced@Michell33650674 Trump lost 60 court cases initiated to prove voter fraud. Is that meaningful? If true, does it mean the GOP winners won due to fraud? Should they resign their positions?
The media seems to deliberately ask Trump questions to which they know he will give a ridiculous and/or inciting response. Of course he enjoys giving upsetting responses
@suz34175@FordJohnathan5 OMG, seriously!? We have alienated our allies like Canada, now we’re going to buy fuel from a murderous communist dictator who invaded a sovereign nation. Trump is now and always has been a traitor.
@SecWar I watched your interview in which you called executing the Fort Hood shooter by firing squad a “no-brainer,” then announced that the public would be able to watch. Now the Pentagon confirms you’re going to livestream it. Well, they certainly picked the right guy for the job, because you apparently don’t have a brain.
Turning an execution into a public spectacle isn’t justice. It’s barbaric theater. Iran and the Taliban in Afghanistan are among the regimes notorious for public executions. Is that who you’re trying to emulate? After your disastrous handling of the war with Iran, apparently you’re more interested in copying their methods of public punishment than demonstrating that you know how to fight a war.
And I wonder how enthusiastic you’d be about publicly displaying punishment when you are convicted of war crimes yourself.
You’re supposed to lead the United States military, not turn it into a televised execution squad. Apparently, you don’t understand the difference.
THE CIA'S SECOND-IN-COMMAND JUST FIRED THE AGENCY'S LAWYER AND HIRED HIMSELF
Michael Ellis. Deputy Director of the CIA. This week he walked into the general counsel's office, removed the person whose entire job is to tell the CIA when it's breaking the law, and installed himself in the seat
Read that again. The man running covert operations is now also the man who approves whether those covert operations are legal. No separation. No independent check. Just Ellis, grading his own homework, in the most secretive agency in the federal government
There is no oversight body watching this happen in real time. No confirmation hearing. No public vote. One trusted Trump loyalist just erased the one internal brake that existed inside the CIA's legal chain
This is the same Michael Ellis who Trump tried to install as NSA general counsel back in 2020 and got blocked for being too political to trust with classified legal judgment
Didn't matter. Trump brought him back anyway. Promoted him anyway. And now he's unsupervised, sitting on both sides of the legal review process for one of the most powerful intelligence agencies on planet earth
Compare that to a career CIA analyst who needs three signatures and a security review just to expense a cab ride
Ellis needed zero signatures to seize legal authority over his own conduct
This isn't a personnel shuffle. This is Donald Trump's pattern, repeating inside the one agency where nobody is supposed to see it happen
Schedule F for the civil service. Loyalty tests for prosecutors. Acting officials who answer only to Trump. And now the CIA's own watchdog function, swallowed whole by the guy it was supposed to watch
When the people checking the power and the people holding the power are the same person, that's not an intelligence agency anymore
That's a black box with Donald Trump's name on the door
And nobody elected Michael Ellis to anything
So now the Trump administration is sending out one-time $500 checks to people who bought their health insurance through https://t.co/aT2oRibUoZ and paid the full price because they didn’t qualify for taxpayer subsidies.
In other words, people who’s income is roughly 400% above poverty and could already afford to pay full price for their health insurance are getting a $500 check from the president. And guess when those checks started showing up? October 1. Weeks before the midterm election.
The checks come with a letter from Trump lying about why you’re getting your $500. And here’s the really interesting part: this isn’t being distributed evenly across the country. Of the roughly $475 million being sent out, 71% of it, or $339 million, is going to people in just 13 states.
Those 13 states happen to be major midterm battlegrounds. They contain eight of the nine Senate races and 10 of the 12 governors’ races that nonpartisan analysts consider the most competitive.
Call it whatever you want. I’ll call it what it is: a bribe.
BREAKING: INSANITY! A jaw-dropping ABC News analysis discovers that investments by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric have raked in over $6 billion in government contracts since their dad was sworn in.
And it gets so much worse...
Yesterday, President Trump announced a $6.6 billion investment with defense company Anduril Industries. The U.S. Navy will foot $2.9 billion of that bill to help build a new military facility. Not so coincidentally, 1789 Capital, where Don Jr. is a partner, took a major stake in Anduril last year.
This is exactly what it looks like. They're not even trying to hide the money trail. Here's how it works, time and time again...
One of Trump's kids, or a close crony, or perhaps even the President himself through proxies, dumps investment money into a company. Then, oh so conveniently, that company begins pulling in massively lucrative government contracts rubber-stamped by Trump. They take your hard-earned tax dollars and directly use them to balloon their stock portfolios.
There's an added cost beyond just the dollar amount as well. This kind of corruption destroys competition and disincentivizes quality work. Rather than awarding federal contracts to the companies that can deliver the best products or services for the American people, they're going to the entities with the most White House pull.
In the case of Trump's incredibly stupid, pampered, crooked sons, the Anduril arrangement is just the latest sweetheart deal. Don Jr. is also an "adviser" to drone manufacturer Unusual Machines which, prior to him coming on board, had not received any government work. But in October of last year, they landed a massive Defense Department order for 3,500 motors, with a possible order of 20,000 coming in 2026. Gee, isn't that an odd coincidence?
Don Jr. and Eric are also investors in the drone company Powerus. Again, the company had never received government contracts until they came on board. Then, in April of this year, Powerus scored a contract with the U.S. Air Force. It then scored another worth up to $90 million.
And these deals are just the tip of the iceberg. They have countless other investments. According to ABC News, the brothers also have "more than $1 billion across companies in mining, quantum computing and aerospace."
A spokesperson for the brothers absurdly defended them against the allegations of corruption—
"Don and Eric are experienced business leaders who have built and invested in businesses across a wide range of industries for decades, long before their father first ran for public office," they said. "Their investment decisions are based solely on their independent business judgment and personal convictions and they do not seek to influence, direct, or participate in any government decision, procurement, award, regulatory action, or other governmental process. Attempts to portray their ordinary investment activities as improper are a deliberate distortion of the facts."
Translation: We think you are stupid. We think you can't stop us. And we're going to keep using our father's power to make ourselves disgustingly wealthy.
This is what oligarchy looks like. These troglodytic nitwits have done nothing to earn this money. They were born into extreme privilege and have failed up their entire lives, just like their father did. While the vast majority of Americans are working hard at real jobs, struggling to even get by thanks to Trump's economy, his idiot sons are getting fat off corruption.
When we retake Congress, we need to launch a sweeping forensic investigation into every member of Trump's family! It's time for prosecutions.
Please ❤️ and share to demand a full Congressional investigation!
Many parts of this country have experienced natural disasters this year. Has the president expressed any concern/compassion to the citizens suffering? Offered any federal help? I guess I missed it.
He calls Democrats "Communists" while entertaining actual Communist leaders and flying red flags on the People's House.
He has Kash announce investigations into fraud while pardoning the biggest fraudsters.
He bombs innocent fishermen under the guise of "stopping drugs" while freeing major kingpins put away for life—one of whom even spoke at their convention.
He calls the media "the enemy of the people" while lying about how many children have been lost in his war to stay out of jail.
He brags about the economy as inflation spikes, people go hungry, and vanity projects get funded—all while claiming there’s no money for cancer research or senior assistance.
If you're sick of being gaslit, don't vote for the Republicans who allowed this to happen.
