Trump’s War on Words

Trump’s War on Words Like a petulant child, Felon Trump pulls the welcome mat from the People’s House Katie Phang Sep 20 On Friday, Convicted Felon Donald Trump didn’t "ban" CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House. What he did was post one of his typical temper tantrums on that cesspool of a social media platform, Truth Social, about "FICTION and LIES," and then, because nobody in that used-to-be-hallowed building has the testicular fortitude to tell the toddler “no”, the Secret Service spent Saturday morning disabling press badges like a landlord changing the locks on a tenant he never bothered to legally evict. When a reporter asked Trump why he would do such a thing, the (theoretically) most powerful (and yet simultaneously most stupid) man in the free world with an entire Department of Justice at his fingertips, offered this legal masterpiece of an answer: “No reason.” When asked what the ban would even look like, he said, and I’m quoting this because y...

Trump believes he gets to use the power of government to silence, extort, bankrupt, or even prosecute anyone who criticizes him.

  Donald Trump’s view of the First Amendment is that he gets to say whatever he wants, AND he gets to use the power of government to silence, extort, bankrupt, or even prosecute anyone who criticizes him. Case and point: After Senator Jack Reed went on Fox News to tell the truth about Trump’s failed war in Iran, Trump took to Truth Social calling on Sen. Reed to be impeached. Look, we need to hold Donald Trump — and every Republican in Congress who supported his war — accountable. And we need leaders in office who are not afraid to speak truth to power — even if they’re intimidated into silence. So I’m asking you to please split a donation of $15 or anything you can to support Jack Reed’s re-election campaign today. We’re going to keep speaking truth to power and fighting back against Trump’s intimidation campaign.   If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will process automatically:     Thanks for being a part of this, Elizabeth DONATE Paid...

I did it because someone had to investigate him and document what was really happening, while corporate media was too busy sanewashing his disgusting brand of fascism. Our independent journalism is accountable only to readers, not advertisers or billionaires. Every day, I track down the resistance wins that corporate media ignores. Then I organize readers to take action on social media and to contact their representatives in the House and Senate. And all of it is creating tangible change for the resistance.
