1) Trump is testing the racism of SCOTUS, not the limits of his power. 2) Trump is also risking financial catastrophe so he can wag his dick around. 3) With that rotting right paw and the growing rot on the left, can you blame him for lashing out?.

Imagine if DOJ had used the standard with Trump that Fox News uses here. Trump would be in prison for 10 years between the two Federal cases, bc DOJ operated on an allegation rather than proving the case.

Trump becomes the first president ever to remove a sitting Federal Reserve governor, alleging Biden-appointed Lisa Cook lied on mortgage forms by declaring two primary residences.

Democrats like Jeffries know their agenda is losing. Their playbook is simple: rely on gerrymandering, ballot harvesting, no-excuse mail-in voting schemes, ANYTHING to manufacture a majority in the House.

Just filed a lawsuit to stop Newsom’s unconstitutional November power grab. He broke the rules. We’re taking him to court. This isn’t Left vs. Right. It’s Right vs. Wrong. Californians deserve a government that serves THEM, not corrupt politicians. 🚨 #StopThePowerGrab

Trump's crackdown on crime across the country is driven by the fact local gangs are run by cartels, which are now designated as terrorist organizations.

DHS insists that if it lies abt Abrego enough we’ll all forget how many times they’ve been caught in this lie. It’s DHS that is un-American in this conflict. Just lies and lies and lies.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is not and will never be a Maryland Man—he is a criminal illegal alien from El Salvador and public safety threat. It is insane that sanctuary politicians chose to glorify and stand with an MS-13 gang member over the safety of American citizens. @POTUS Trump

Admittedly @RonnyJacksonTX is painfully stupid, so he may not understand this. But he’s cheering unlawful taxes on consumers. It’s the opposite of making American rich.

Meanwhile, a terrorist shot up a govt agency, Russia hacked govt court filings, and also attacked an American company. Trump did nothing in response to all those attacks on the US.

If Democrats were politically smart, they would work with Trump on crime. It would defuse the issue, which the admin and Republicans can keep using against Democrats, and it would actually help American communities. However, it seems TDS will remain a blockade.

Say @DAGToddBlanche ? Are you gonna have another chat with Trump’s sex trafficking buddy to ask her if Jeffrey Epstein fucked Melania before Trump did, as a new book claims? . Goes right to the heart of blackmail possibility. Surely taxpayers have a right to know that?.
