@WhiteHouse June 1990:

“All Trump has to do is stick to the rules on which he was raised by his father in the County of Queens: Never use your own money. Steal a good idea and say it's your own. Do anything to get publicity. Remember that everybody can be bought.”

@ScottJenningsKY Thomas Crooks was a registered Republican.

Ryan Routh didn’t have a declared party.

Tyler Robinson also didn’t have a definitive political ideology, however the bullets and his rhetoric came from Nick Fuentes and memes.

Cole Allen is the only Democrat.

@FoxNews Can someone please explain how we are at war with Iran and our president and Secretary of State found it appropriate to go to a UFC Fight in Miami while the Vice President tried (and failed) to negotiate peace talks?

@Jim_Jordan @DeborahT82629 It’s a little hard to think about anything else other than the president getting us into a war he said he’d never start.

@StateDept Can we not even spell correctly?

@TomiLahren ICE agents are not flooding the streets of states with more illegal immigrants like Texas or Florida.

Minnesota said they did not need help in this way, but other ways.

Instead, the federal government came in anyway. They are now entering homes without warrants. What gives?

@FoxNews Along with the footage, I encourage everyone to read the sworn testimony of two witnesses.
