The Trump regime is trying to end freedom of speech and make it illegal to speak out against the government. They want to end competitive elections and make us into a one-party dictatorship. That might sound insane—but it doesn’t make it less true!

President Trump announced on Tuesday that he would move the U.S. Space Command to Alabama from Colorado, a decision that he said was motivated in part by his grudge against Colorado, a Democratic state he lost in all three of his runs for president.
