To be clear, the orange felon has officially shifted US policy to be more friendly with murderous Dictators like Putin and Kim Jong Un than with democratic allies like Canada and South Korea whilst systematically deteriorating the US military.

I’d definitely call that treason.

It’s never been about what Trump does.

Evil is as evil does.

It’s always been about what you are willing to do.

You have the power in your hands right now.

"Today, Davey Hearn pled not guilty — because he is not guilty," Norm Eisen, one of his attorneys, said outside DC Superior Court. "If Mr. Hearn can be charged with a felony for touching the reflecting pool, every American is at risk — and every American should be alarmed about this prosecution."

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship.

But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen.

Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship.

But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother.

They are both shameless hypocrites.

Never did I think I would see a cure for sickle cell in my lifetime.

A friend of mine in fifth grade died from this disease. My parents kept me home from the funeral because they thought I was too young to handle it.

Modern science is a miracle.
