Riley Moore is close friends with MAGA “Catholic” Bishop Robert Barron, who was his guest at a Trump speech to Congress. Moore also posed giving the thumbs up sign in front of the immigrants sent to the El Salvador torture prison. He and Barron are reprehensible.

You’re worried about the bills you can’t pay because of Trump & Vance. They’re focused on lying to exonerate Richard Nixon.

basically it is a very good time to be a corrupt politician or one who committed some of the same kinds of crimes Trump himself has committed, because of course all such convictions are Deep State Weaponization blah blah blah.

Nixon would be the crown jewel of that approach.

The Trump 45 administration was arranged around protecting Trump's ability to do crimes.

The Trump 47 administration is much more aggressively committed to delegitimizing the whole *ideas* of crime and corruption for politicians.

Sick. My US Rep Riley Moore (R—WV) says Richard Nixon was framed! He has to go. He is die-hard pro-Trump. Bizarre defense of a criminal who undermined democracy (Nixon). www.nwahomepage.com/news/nationa...

The writers are not subtle
Just over the last few months:
- DOJ begins review of whether Nixon was a victim
- WH pardon attorney says Watergate was a CIA “hoax”
- WH chief of protocol says Nixon was the “target of a Deep State hoax”
- Vance celebrates Nixon “renaissance,” dismisses Watergate

Decades later, Trump’s DOJ to review whether Nixon was mistreated during Watergate scandal
The DOJ is taking a fresh look at whether Nixon was some kind of victim — developments that would’ve seemed unthinkable a half-century ago.
