President Barack Obama reacts to U.S. action in Iran as the two sides get closer to a peace deal: “It is doubtful that any agreement that arises is going to be significantly different or a significant improvement from the deal that we had in the first place.” Watch Robin Roberts’ interview with former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama Wednesday on Good Morning America. this-week.visitlink.me/CELFI…

First look at his library and all the books Trump has ever read
🚨 WOW! President Trump just unveiled his Florida PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY, worked on by Eric Trump and positioned in Miami Absolutely beautiful Looks like it's gonna be one of the TALLEST buildings in the area, with a massive lit up American flag under "TRUMP"

This is a parody account, right?
🚨 President Trump just did what every real American has been waiting for. He dropped the mic, walked off the interview with Kristen Welker, and refused to waste another second. At this point it is not worth President Trump’s time to meet with these reporters. I am happy that he ended the interview. All she did is ask for evidence of cheating which is so overwhelmingly obvious that a person with a 3rd grade education would know better. Shame on the press for being complicit.

How in the hell does a shameless toady support the 34-time convicted felon who incited an assault on the Capitol police, pardoned the attackers, and now plans to pay them?
How in the hell has a defense witness in the 1993 WTC bombing, with ties to Al-Qaeda been nominated by the Democrats to serve in Congress? If elected in November, Congress should fully investigate his ties to terrorist organizations and determine whether he is fit to serve.

Yes, and the Nuremberg trials weaponized the court against the Nazi atrocities.
When asked about the recent settlement that prevents the IRS from auditing any Trump family tax records, Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) says President Trump “obviously had claims that he brought against the government as a result of” the Biden administration. “I think when it comes to any agreements that the president has made with the IRS, from my vantage point, you know, I think looking back at what the Biden administration did,” he says. “They certainly weaponized the government and were targeting the president.”
Community note
The leak prompting the IRS settlement happened in 2019 during Trump's presidency, not the Biden administration. justice.gov/archives/opa/p… taxnotes.com/featured-analy…

They want you to forget. They don’t want you to see this. Keep sharing this so we can’t forget what they did to us that day.

EXCLUSIVE: Bishop Barron blasts the Catholic left for 'demonization' of Trump, says there are 'moral reasons' to support border enforcement — citing child trafficking and thousands of missing kids. He wants dialogue, not lectures: 'Let's build bridges of conversation. That's a role the Church can play.'

So, yeah. If Trump’s personal attorney agrees with it, I’m cool.
RAJU: Would you be okay if January 6 rioters, the ones who were convicted of attacking police, had access to taxpayer dollars in the $1.8 billion settlement fund? MIKE JOHNSON: We don't know any of the details of that settlement fund. I'll defer to what the acting AG said. I'm not going to comment on it

As Iago reminded Cornyn, “You shall mark many a duteous and knee-crooking knave that (doting on his own obsequious bondage) wears out his time much like his master’s ass for naught but provender, and when he’s old, cashiered.”
Prepare yourself for disappointment.

This is a parody account, right? No one, even in MAGA, is this stupid.
🚨 NOW: Tom Homan just ERUPTED on NY Gov. Kathy Hochul as she pushes draconian anti-ICE legislation Homan READS the crimes committed by illegal aliens being released from her jails: "Homicide, s*xual assault, s*xual assault, s*xual assault, r*pe, s*xual assault, r*pe, r*pe, r*pe, s*xual assault, homicide, r*pe, homicide, s*xual assault, homicide, r*pe, s*xual assault, kidnapping, s*xual assault, r*pe, homicide, homicide. I can go ON AND ON AND ON!" "Top 20 we arrested off the street to New York because her administration refused to work with us and honor our detainers." "SHE is making New York less safe. President Trump has done more to protect the citizens of New York than SHE HAS!" 🔥🔥

They literally threw 45,000 votes away. They threw them away. But please tell me more about the Democrats and election integrity won’t you.
Reporter: More than 45,000 ballots have been returned in Louisiana. What happens to those? GOP Gov. Jeff Landry: Oh, those ballots are discarded. Reporter: You say that like it’s not a big deal. Landry: Well, it’s not a big deal. It’s not my fault

When Neil Gorsuch tried for 2 years to sell his $1.8M property with no luck, but only 9 days after getting confirmed to the Supreme Court, sold it to a lawyer with multiple cases before SCOTUS, then failed to disclose the buyer’s identity - there’s a stench on the bench.

He shills sea shells
Here are three things that will happen: 1. DOJ will lose the Comey case. 2. In the next Administration, Comey will get a big monetary settlement for selective prosecution. 3. After this Administration ends, @DAGToddBlanche will get disbarred. 86 47

Oh STFU. Trump danced on Rob Reiner’s grave, on Robert Mueller’s grave, called recently for the execution of elected members of Congress. Kimmel told a joke. I’m so fed up of this idiocy, dishonesty and faux outrage.
Regarding the First Lady’s condemnation of Kimmel’s latest incitement, think what it must be like to have total strangers wishing you and your family dead. Trump can be a rude provocateur. Kimmel is a sadist masquerading as a comedian.

Hannity: Pope Leo is seemingly more interested in spreading left-wing politics than the actual teachings of Jesus Christ. Why is the pope twisting religion to only attack Trump? Why did he recently meet with top Obama advisor David Axelrod and J.B. Pritzker? Is it because he is Trump hating Democrat that lacks moral clarity…

Says the guy who voted against the war resolution act, voted against releasing the Epstein files, and voted against the bipartisan border bill.
Congress must hold itself to the highest ethical standard, regardless of party. Based on the facts and information that has come out, it’s simple: Eric Swalwell, Tony Gonzalez, and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick should all resign from Congress effective immediately. If not, Congress should move to expel all three of them upon our return this week. Leadership and members in both parties should have moral clarity and recognize some things are more important than vote margins and party loyalty.
