Little wonder that Congress will not impeach the man behind the curtain…because it is not just one man. This photo succinctly depicts some who are card-carrying members of the Grift Group; those who stand to benefit by continuing to prostrate themselves before the king while at the same time amassing and protecting their personal fortunes. It’s a small price to pay, after all. A few compliments are all it costs to take the ride, but these people may eventually find either the price of admission to be too steep or the ride to become too dangerous to take. Time will tell.

We must win this midterm election if we want to dig ourselves out of this avalanche of corruption. I don’t know how we’re going to do it, but every step in that direction will be a step toward a window of opportunity to let democracy in. Attending the No Kings March in your area is a good way to begin to let in the light and air out the room, ‘cause right now it stinks to high heaven.

This was true in 1st admin. He's waging war, killing children, killing soldiers, to foster business interests, not to further American interests. Hes using and abusing the country to make himself rich. The insider trading moments before announcement of opening Hormuz canal, is exh a. Attack on Venezuela was for oil. He us happy to be considered king. He thinks its an honor and comes with a crown. IMHO.

Trump was a clear and present danger to the US in T1. He is exponentially more so in T2. I see a direct line of these attacks, not only to Jared's personal grift, but Jr., Eric, Barron, Melania. The biggest is the countries Trump chooses to wage war....rich in mineral assets, especially oil. This is why he has worked diligently to end alternative fuel sources for the US and changed our trajectory toward fossil fuel.

Anyone who ever saw the felon on the New York news decades ago knew he would do exactly this. He's always been a cruel, uncaring, miserable person, and Ivanka married someone just like daddy.

“Technically, I’ve not joined the administration,” he said yesterday in Miami. “I’m still just a volunteer and a businessman who volunteered to help the government when asked.” Talk about chutzpah! As The New York Times blithely described the grifting, “The efforts show the blurring of the lines between public service and private profit-seeking during Mr. Trump’s second term.” I went to my Thesaurus to look up "blithely" and I chose "cheerful indiference." Doesn't that have a ring to it? And how could I neglect Sycophant #1, Stephen Miller, who revealed, “What President Trump has done on border security and public safety is a national miracle that will be studied not only for generations but for centuries to come.” You're right about one thing, nincompoop, Trump "will be studied..." but not for the flattering you've slosh, but for damages afflicted on our country that were the most damaging of this century.

This is not news. It is truth that ought to be tattooed on every caring American's right forearm.

During Trump’ s first term, Kushner famously advised a critic, “No one can go lower than the President—you shouldn’t even try.”

Looks like Jared’s right down there with his daddy-in-law.
