Trump Redacted
Republicans, MAGAts, goons, and troglodytes have been clamoring for the release of the affidavit that led to the FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago earlier this month, believing it would prove the "raid" was political, personal, illegitimate, and illegal.

There's a talking point among MAGAts that Donald Trump had a standing order while he was president (sic) that any document brought from the Oval Office to... Continue Reading →
Pence and the FB-Fly
For only the second time in his life, Mike Pence committed a noble act and called on his Republican Party to stop attacking the FBI.
