and of course put a target right on his back
“I totally disagree with the Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, in that the Police Officer ‘Thug,’ who has had a very checkered past to begin with, was not just ‘doing his job’ when he shot and killed Great Patriot Ashli Babbitt at point blank range,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Santos saga isn’t trivial and it isn’t over. I think it is a window on the American Weird, something very special we invaders have concocted since, you know, 1619.

Donald Trump ran the Executive Branch the same way he ran the Trump Org. Everything existed to serve his personal interests. The thing that really gets me is the cravenness of those around him. I don’t mean garbage like Stephen Miller, I mean lifers in government who just shrugged and went along with all of it.

The leaked Trump 2020 in Wisconsin audio is telling. A number of those individuals currently hold high office in National Party/Campaign Committees.

Comms is going to continue to fan the flame and get the word out about Democrats trying to steal this election. We’ll do whatever they need. Just be on standby if there’s any stunts we need to pull.

So the machinations were all stunts, eh? I’m pretty sure that prosecutors will not be having a laugh at a stunt.

The Chinese balloon was spotted over my hometown of Billings MT. The excuse for not shooting it down was that debris might hit someone. Who? Sheep? Prarie Dogs?

The Italians had nothing for them on that, but they did have a something on Trump. Oops.

It would be fatal to our nation as we know and love it to elect Trump, and possibly any Republican.
