NEW: Trump’s DoJ Chief of Staff has filed a complaint against Judge Reyes because she bench slapped their bigoted asses into the sun three days ago.

Trump just erased the only nationwide police misconduct database. Launched in Dec. 2023, it tracked disciplinary records across 90 federal agencies. Now? Gone. The White House won’t say why, but we know—accountability is bad for the people Trump protects.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.
