The mad king did it again... it is high time for legal actions against this unpresidential president...
#Felon47 HAS NO FUCKING CLUE WHAT HE IS SIGNING
He is
Walking into walls
Incoherent & makes no sense when he speaks
Who's really in charge?
Is there anyone in Corporate Media with the courage to cover this?

More and more students are now deciding that college is just not worth it given the crippling student loan debt that our country is saddled with. It is starting to gut local economies. Bernie Sanders tried to warn us. #Trump wants to dumb down our people. If we want to eradicate Trumpism, we need free college. https://www.wsj.com/us-news/education/college-towns-economy-macomb-illinois-aae84dcc?st=45GLmt&reflink=article_copyURL_share #Education #Illinois
In Phoenix, Arizona, on Tues & Wed, #ICE arrested several people outside the #immigration #court.
Among them, Geovanni Francisco & his mother from Guerrero, Mexico, who entered the country LEGALLY in 2023, after making an appointment using the #Biden-era CBP One app, acc/to his aunt Hilda Ramirez. Their case was dismissed Wed morning, records show.
“They didn’t even give them a chance to gather their things,” said Ramirez, who accompanied her sister & nephew to their hearing.
The photo in this story is profoundly disturbing: armed, tattooed, masked, sunglass-wearing Navy SEAL-wannabes hauling off suspects.

#Felon47 can’t have it both ways
If it was a Private function?
Then he can not receive Immunity
If it was an Official dinner (see POTUS Seal)?
Then it’s bribery & corruption in plain sight & he must be impeached

"The #WashingtonPost sparked a flurry of anger online Friday with a post on X that raised eyebrows by raising an offensive question in the wake of the murders of two #Israeli #embassy staffers, saying the grisly act of terror has amplified “confusion” about “where #Jews belong.”
There's a Black Lives Matter petition, asking that the bogus assault charges against Congresswoman LaMonica McIver (the NJ Congresswoman arrested at the ICE detention center). I encourage you to sign at

“We've been playing as a #band for over 20 years and we can't get our heads around the fact that for the first time, we're not allowed to take the stage,” said Breslaw. “We are a #British band being cancelled in #Britain, a British band that happens to be prominently #Jewish, and our musical DNA is Jewish. It's shocking."
“Oi Va Voi has only ever sung about humanity and compassion, and has played across borders. The idea that that people can pass judgment on us, and can close us down and see that we can't take to the stage, even though our fans have bought tickets to see us, is not acceptable,” he added."
Here is Trump's new EO on standards for scientific integrity.
The funny thing is these rules will prevent RFKJr from opening his mouth, since everything he says violates these principles and he'd be subject to explicit sanctions.

"Harvard University is doing just the right thing. This is extortion. It's a vendetta using all powers of the government because of a political argument with Harvard. It is violating the First Amendment. It is also violating all the laws we have regarding administrative procedures..."

everything means the opposite for these people. freedom
means your freedom to obey. the first amendment means their freedom to tell you what you can read and think.

En banc Fifth Circuit overrules decades of precedent and holds that there is no First Amendment right to receive information in a public library.
"You said there were no cuts to scientists & then the HHS spokesperson said, 'Actually, there were cuts to scientists & now we're trying to rehire them.' It gives the impression you're not sure about the personnel actions in own agency & that's an indication from your testimony today." -- Jon Ossoff just dismantled FDA Commissioner Makary
Trump and Noem’s latest authoritarian attack on higher education - revoking Harvard’s certification to host foreign students and visitors - is meant not only or even primarily to harm Harvard. It is meant to scare every U.S university and college into submitting to anything university administrators think Trump wants. https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2025/04/16/DHS-Harvard/1571744857205/
