Gross. Wittman has sent a deceitful FUNDRAISING email about the Strotman/Henrico NICU case for which Taylor obtained a sentence SIX TIMES the guidelines.
Trading on the case by lying is disgraceful. But that’s Rob Wittman.
We debunked this attack ages ago. Don’t let Wittman get away with this!

"Unthreatening and respectful", just like the J6 insurrectionists attack on the Capitol
Calling North Korea "unthreatening and respectful" when they send missiles, shells, and troops to kill Ukrainians is a special kind of lunacy.

I endorse this sentiment. Trump regime doesn't give a shit about life, especially vulnerable populations. We might as well have a target on our backs.
Fuck everyone who voted for this absolute brain dead stupidity.

The Federal Highway Administration quietly stripped bike lanes and other safety recommendations from a key list of best practices. Critics say those measures are proven to cut crashes and save lives.

Trump ain't well y'all
When did all this daily drama, mania, insanity and lunacy start? Oh yeah, it was January 20, 2025. Every day more corruption, threats, arrests, firings, shootings, indictments, scandals, and power grabs. The other guy was old. This guy is an old, psychotic, malignant narcissist.

Trump, sitting next to Zelenskyy: "In one day, we could knock down every single bridge in Iran. There's not a thing they can do about it ... if we have to, we'll take them out. They have desalinization plants. We'll take them out if we have to ... maybe we'll take over Kharg island."
