🚨BREAKING: Cleta Mitchell thinks President Donald Trump may declare a national emergency to allow him to take control of national elections. Her comments will add to growing concern that Trump is plotting a way to use his power over the military and federal law enforcement to rig next year’s vote.

🗽 Your commander in chief's answer to the epstein victims press conference was to do a flyover. Under the guise of impressing the Polish President. Which is the "last thing" the Polish President would be here for. Or, for that matter. Want to see! 🗽 Good job! 👏 You're "not" just following orders!

Why this list differs: we narrowed it to one test—do they feed fascism, do they bend to Trump? Corporate spending always mixes blue/red employees. Some “red” firms have blue workforces and vice versa. The fight now is fascism. First Trump. Then the rest of the goddamned fascists.

Awful: Kristi Noem just accused CBS of editing out her comments about Abrego Garcia. But the "suppressed" comments were largely lies! This comes after CBS handed Trump $16 million over the same bogus "editing" claim. There's no placating authoritarians. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
