Trump at the DOJ: "I believe that CNN and MSNDC, who literally write 97.6% bad about me, are political arms of the Democrat Party. And in my opinion, they are really corrupt and they are illegal. What they do is illegal."

That’s also extremely possible. At this point, in light of the blatantly unlawful & unconstitutional shit he’s already done, he must be planning something. Even HE will know that what he’s done would have consequences for him were there to be a new administration. He won’t allow that to happen.
Yep. Look how he admires Putin, a man who changed term limits so he could hold onto power. Trump has decided to align the US with Russia, because he loves a dictator & he loves how they wield absolute power.
The only thing that will change the future for Americans, is an uprising.
Elections are not managed federally, “suspending” the midterms in a practical sense means that something much worse has already happened — the US military occupying and dismantling state and local governments.
I’m 57. I have NEVER wished death on anyone, even my late father in law, who was a monster. HOWEVER, I sincerely and genuinely wish he’d die. This doesn’t make me feel good, I take no delight in imagining his death, but he needs to die. He has no intention of stepping down after this term is over.
If any of this is still surprising to Americans, study closely what Orban did to Hungary or Erdogan did to Turkey. Same playbook, faster timeline. If you want to know what’s coming, you know where to look.
Back where he belongs. In the meantime, we should bug our senators and state reps to establish a law that defers all CONVICTED FELONS from the presidential election
Did anyone notice the enhanced "canned applause"? This was very obvious due to the sudden cutoff of the applause & the reverb typically present in a hall as well as that there is usually a smattering of single hand claps or other audience noise. Nobody would write anything bad if he was doing GOOD!
Democrats, we need to unite & focus our energy on Trump’s threats & attacks on our free press, free speech and his demolition of our government. His speech at the Justice Department today was dangerous. 1/2
so here's the thing. he's gonna accuse them of being like that no matter what they do, so like, they might as well just try to actually not sugarcoat everything, it might actually work out for them
Confident we'll weather a couple years of President Vance, then move on.
Whatever monkey paw crossroads deal with the devil mojo bullshit Trump pulled off, he's the only one who can hold MAGA under his spell. Lead up to 2020 and 2024 elections proved that. Compared to Trump they're all DeSantis.
So I am only seeing clips of this presser from RSBN outlet — did he not allow any other news to broadcast it? I mean the ads that are going along with this presser is atrocious.
🚨 FULL-ON FASCISM?! 🚨
Trump now claims that CNN and MSNBC are “illegal” because they criticize him?! Are we seriously allowing a wannabe dictator to decide which media outlets are allowed to exist? This is a direct assault on the First Amendment!
👉 SHARE THIS – WE MUST FIGHT BACK! 👊🔥
🇨🇦🤔 I thought the term to describe him was always a “whiny little bitch”…
Did it change for his 2nd term or are you making a point that he scrambles his letters & words like a word salad because he’s losing control of his faculties?
Just curious, that’s all! 😁
Seriously. I'm so fucking tired on this raving lunatic. Someone just needs to lock them all up in Gitmo and toss the key into the river or melt it down.
It never pays to collaborate with a fascist regime. You're exactly right. CNN bent over backwards. And where does it get them? The 10 dem senators who voted to support fascist policies today will find out soon enough. No dividend is paid by a fascist.
Loved that he also accused the Washington Post, aka J. Bezo, who gave him a million, gave Melania a book deal, & killed his opinion column, to kiss ass.
Trumps "opinions" on almost anything are baseless and factually wrong. This is a perfect example. The personal vendetta's he is prosecuting demonstrates his level of corrupt thinking. And, due to the sycophants and nepotists he has surrounding him, he is allowed to roam free,damaging and destroying
One hour of exercise a day is cruel and unusual punishment! Donny hasn't gotten a whole hour of exercise in a day for 30 years! 10 minutes of walking plus a 50-minute golf cart ride around and around the prison yard would suit him better. Then dump his ass back in the cell.
Please, try to understand how the hidden powers work. This is precisely the problem that led us to this. Trump is a puppet, a face, a dummy. The dangerous men are behind him and most of them you don't even know who they are.
Some men may be too emotional. Others are just too stupid. Donald Trump is both. I just want to know what Trump has on the Republican Party that makes them bend the knee with no resistance. I can't believe they are all corrupt bastards.
What he has on them, I believe: 1. Video and audio of illegal/immoral acts in the US AND Russia. 2. Proof all of them have taken Russian money for themselves and/or their campaigns, which is ILLEGAL.
As it turns out, a President making open and public attacks on freedom of the press is not a distraction. It's an attempt to normalise ignoring the First Amendment.
I watched CNN the other day (as a european I never do) to get to see Trudeau’s speech, and the “journalists”/hosts afterwards were so biased (in favor of trump) that I couldn’t believe it, speaking of “anti americanism” and bashing Trudeau for being cocky because he only had 3 days left in office…
The last honorable and honest man at CNN was Jim Acosta. He's on Substack now. Anderson Cooper should be ashamed that he's still there. I thought he had enough money to NOT work for a corrupt firm.
I stopped watching American news right before the election. Very few real journalist outlets still exist here. Thankfully You Tube carries European news and Al Jazeera.
Personally I like watching TLDR News channels on YT (UK based), it’s not always perfect but at least they try to do a good/fair job. Anyway, no single news source is ever good enough to build a educated opinion. Channels like Perun and Patrick Boyle are also very helpful in my opinion.
Right??? The dude had to actually show up five days in a row! Back to Mar a Lago to Golf! The dude just wants to stay out of Prison and Golf the rest of his life away. Elon bought that for him.
I noticed the hoarseness of the voice and the low energy also. My Dad suffered from Alzheimers, and Trump's behavior is consistent with what I went through with my Dad. You can see it in the eyes, and both my Dad and Trump have blue eyes. It's telling.
What are they illegally doing? What exactly? Defaming you? How so? I mean, putting all else aside, the constant nonsense is deafening. And yet constantly ignored by the chattering class. It’s just making excuse after excuse for him.
The U.S. has various laws that protect media organizations, including the First Amendment, which guarantees freedom of the press. Additionally, the PRESS Act aims to protect journalists and their sources, ensuring that they can report without fear of legal repercussions.
“In my opinion…”
This is how he enables his supporters to downplay his dangerous rhetoric. “He’s just giving his opinion…” “It’s just locker room talk…” “He’s not really going to do what he says he wants to do…”
The insert of the Mike Lindell pillow sale really drives home how blatantly stupid this entire thing is. Dangerous, of course, but also the optics completely make him the look like the carnival barker circus clown that he is (except those folks are actually doing a job).
And would anyone ever ask him WHY it’s illegal? We know it’s not, but would be so nice it if someone would push back and question why he claims something when it’s blatantly a lie or just pure nonsense.
Don't be too gleefully yet about it. The way it's looking now it could well be that the coming decades the history books will (have to) praise him as the best president in history, a stable genius King.
They are very evil. Fox has spread nothing but propaganda for decades now. This brought us psychopath orange guy. Nothing worse has ever happened like this to our country ever.
No you guessed wrong.
And you still don't get it.
We are not in Kansas anymore...
In an autocracy only newsoutlets that disagree with the great leader are wrong.
The fake President will say anything to deflect on what he has done. He’s really terrified for the truth to come out & for the Kremlin to follow through. I’m sure he has a scapegoat all picked out, when more news hits the fan.
Of course, Fox, which has been a revolving door for GOP staff for a very long time, is supposedly neutral. He literally calls into the shows and they coordinate talking points.
It’s far worse than just “anything I don’t like” — he’s going after the press and suggesting they are influencing judges. This is a fascist-level emergency.
And JD Vance in Munich & also in the Oval Office with Keir Starmer insulted and lectured us in UK about free speech.
Here in UK we allow ALL criticism of govt & institutions.
What we don't allow is inciting violence or breaching protected spaces.
The arrogance of Americans!
You can see what Trump really looks like without the hair styling (hair piece, or whatever it is), make up, tailoring and corset, when he is IRL a sweaty mess out playing golf. He looks 10-15 years older, 30 pounds heavier, and much weaker/unhealthier then.
The USA has let nearly 10 years of rhetoric of lies, deliberate disinformation, whining & victimhood, perpetuate under DJT since the 6/16/2015 escalator announcement.
It’s reckless & has damaged the psyche with hourly tabloid fodder that media & MAGA punditry profits off his lies & crimes.
The #trump had Rupert Murdoch sitting with him in the oval office just a couple weeks ago for the whole world to see. He just never gets tired of straight face hypocrisy.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
He's setting the table for going after the press, after recently going after law firms to intimidate them from representing clients that are opposing his admin's actions.
Says an actual criminal. Free press and differing opinions are not illegal more people should share how corrupt and awful you, and your "administration" are. The DOJ is not for your personal use just because you put Pam Bondi there doesn't mean they are your personal lawyers, dumbass.
And non-Americans look and wonder. You think he is the best person to represent you? Until you clean out the *hite House, America will be a pariah state. Undemocratic and and untrustworthy.
You can do better
For a tough guy - he whines more than a 2 yr old. Piss and moan, piss and moan. I doubt John Gotti ever bitched this much! #loser #weak #pathetic #trumpdoj #doj
Ok.. another thing that this thing alone calls for impeachment (actually arrest and incarceration - trial is complete and we the jury find him guilty of sedition and treason as well as criminal stupidity).
The convicted criminal is breaking laws right and left.
That's why voting BLUE in the midterms on Nov 3, 2026 must be the most important job any democracy-loving American can do to render The Felon & his henchmen powerless ... providing it's still allowed with these fascists in power.
He wants to destroy our Free Press for a State Press, like Russia. I don’t know how he thinks he could take away the very FIRST amendment of our Bill of Rights since motherfucking 1791. Freedom of the Press, our Speech and Religion. It’s truly alarming! And I’m stunned so many follow behind follow.
I believe that Fox “News,” OAN, “News”max-who literally write 97.6 % good about him, are political arms of the Republican Party. And in my opinion, they are really corrupt & they are illegal. What they do is illegal. 🙄

I believe that he WILL suspend the midterms, on the pretext of uncovering ‘serious flaws’ in the electoral system. Then he’ll go for a 3rd term.
He has zero intention of letting go of power this time, and the people who engineered his win have zero intention of allowing that to happen.
Barring a full-scale popular uprising, trump is effectively president for life now.
The only thing that will change the future for Americans, is an uprising.
He might declare martial law and suspend elections though…
At this point I think your chances of,
A - Midterms taking place, & B - Trump allowing the presidential election in 2028, are less than 50%.
He has no intention of relinquishing power. He’s America’s Putin.
Completely delusional.
His entire life is a con

Everything is strange now
trump has to go.
The same he id saying is illegal then?

May his judgment come swiftly and last eternally! 🔥
1. Never trust a fascist
2. Never trust in New York slumlord
3. Never ever ever trust a fascist New York slumlord
You wouldn’t know the truth if it grabbed you by the crotch
Is the most snowflake response of all time.
Who knew human souls were so cheap?
Their sacrifice of their core viewers to bring MAGA on board was for nothing, and they will suffer the fate of WaPo: to die in dumbness.

Maybe the owners of both news organizations haven't been at Mar-a-Golf-Motel to suck his toes enough lately.
Fascist psychopath authoritarian POS
97.6% bad means 2.4% must be bullshit.
This is how he enables his supporters to downplay his dangerous rhetoric. “He’s just giving his opinion…” “It’s just locker room talk…” “He’s not really going to do what he says he wants to do…”
Rupert Murdoch - you want to speak up on actually meeting with Trump and giving him preferential coverage
Both - corrupt, dirty old men
FFS.
And you still don't get it.
We are not in Kansas anymore...
In an autocracy only newsoutlets that disagree with the great leader are wrong.
Fox however never criticise Trump or his policies.
Here in UK we allow ALL criticism of govt & institutions.

Give me a glimpse of hope and life. Participate and donate. In bio
Please don’t forget in Gaza 💔🇵🇸
What does he look like without the CGI?
It’s reckless & has damaged the psyche with hourly tabloid fodder that media & MAGA punditry profits off his lies & crimes.
How y'all feel NOW???
Both OF YOUR networks are guilty of bending the knee & complying in advance with this fascist dictator...what NOW!?!
just drags figures out of his arse and would be impossible to prove
FREE SPEECH isn't illegal.
The second is the military to stop this coup with a coup
You can do better
You only like Fox and Fiends because they repeat your lies!
Why don't you quit gripping about this and that - and DO YOUR JOB for ALL of America and stop whining about what you don't have!

We need the actual leftists in the democratic party to split off and we need to primary the cowards in there.
It's fucking parody at this point.
They might start doing that.
10% off with every vote.
And facist.
Little Bush (W) called himself the decidetator, but even he at least acted like he was listening to all sides before going off on his power trip.
I said it w distain.
Basically
