Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked.

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the US. It is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. The emerging battle will be global democracy vs. a global oligarchy. The US is emerging on the side of global oligarchy.

MAGA had a huge problem with Kamala’s laugh but is totally fine with Trump saying he is a king and then posting a picture of him in a crown. That basically sums up the current state of the Republican Party.
