IMO we need all those FBI agents under oath to testify if they saw Trump's name when they were told to review and flag the documents. Was anything redacted, edited or deleted to their knowledge? Get every document they saw. This whole thing stinks to high heaven.

I think he was in a tiff that the cool kids (the other dictators) had a party and didn't invite him. He's done everything they want, and all they do is use him and laugh at him.

Yep. Maybe he only had some vanity procedure done like a squirrel hair transplant, face lift or neck vulva tuck. π€·

I think DJT has been mad that the cool kids, Putin, Xi, Kim and Modi had a party without him, and openly make fun of him. He did everything they wanted and they still see him as their clueless errand boy. Maybe DJT was avoiding questions more than hiding.

They won't get rid of him because: He's furthering the goal of anti-expert policy He's making anti science the norm He's dumbing down people and making them vulnerable He's on the Epstein files and probably knows too much

IMO, there should be more limits, transparency and oversight for lobbyists and what they are allowed to give to congressmen. Congress is supposed to be representing the people, not foreign interests and corporations. Removing money from politics should include lobbyist perks too, IMO.

I was raised in that culture. Mormons have an all male priesthood. Men interview and judge women, but never the other way around. The polygamist history is downplayed now, but still to be practiced in the afterlife. Mike Lee's father was once president of BYU. The church is filthy rich. Surprised?

DJT has the best medical care in the world. They can keep frail and sick people alive for a very long time. I'm not getting any hopes up. I'm tired of disappointment after disappointment. Reps will use auto pens to pretend he is still active. (Now I know why they brought up auto pens.)

Every accusation is a confession with Rep handlers. I'm beginning to wonder if their whole tiff about using an auto pen is because they plan on using an auto pen a lot as Donnie declines. They don't create a scandal unless they are doing it themselves. Thanks Mr. Tiedrich for your excellent work!

There is nothing Trump does but dismantle and weaken the USA. He has removed our allies, positions of leadership in the world in global affairs and science, etc. He is destroying all safety nets for the people and robbing. He is carrying out Russia's dream to destroy an adversary. That's an asset.

I think Trump understands just fine. His role is to stall and say various things that make it seem he is doing something. Trump is fully in support of Putin's side for war and imperialism. Trump hates Zelensky. Trump is likewise dismantling and weakening the US govt while pretending the opposite.

How is RFK Jr keeping that job? Pure speculation, but he was in the Epstein flight list and black book, per various sources. What do DJT and Kennedy know about each other's involvement? The COVID vaccine was one of DJT's few accomplishments. It's strange that DJT would let Kennedy downplay that.
