I wish I could shed a tear for John Bolton, but given his record in the W. Bush administration and after, I just can't. Don't misunderstand. Trump using the FBI for revenge is horrible and Kash Patel is probably worse than Bolton, but that doesn't excuse what Bolton did. He's part of the reason we've ended up with Trump.

Bolton is a bad man! Almost ironic he's one of the first to become a target of retribution!!

He deserves it, sure, but it's still bad for the country to have the FBI used to punish political enemies. I'm concerned about all of us, not about Bolton.

When the President says, “I don’t know what’s going on, I don’t want to know what’s happening.” Americans should be concerned. He’s the f’kin president, he should know everything that’s occurring! But wait a minute, that might cut into golf time, better to just delegate all the work to his racist partners in crime. He’s just in it for the power and money after all. No need to busy himself with the actual WORK of being a president.

PS. Love seeing you back Francesca!

What’s Behind Cheeto’s DOJ Demanding State Voter Rolls?

In his multipronged approach to rig the upcoming 2026 midterm elections, Cheeto got the Nazis in Texas to pick up 5 additional seats pending a court ruling as to the constitutionality of this mid census power play

But Cheeto is also demanding that 9 Democratic states hand over their voter rolls But for what purpose? Perhaps not so obvious in this power move is to get hold of voter information and use that to purge registered voters from the rolls by using the successful technique the Nazis used in the 2024 election as reported by investigative journalist Greg Palast in his Vigilantes Inc(bit.ly/41UelTx interview begins at 5 minutes) This Nazi voter suppressive gimmick disenfranchised enough votes that had it not happened would have led to a Harris victory So the important thing WE the People need to focus on to secure our vote

Why go after mail in votes? This would push voters to the polls where Cheeto plans to intimidate and interfere voting with military troops

Why this is not being reported on Substack channels is just wrong and not explainable Wake up Meidas, Schmidt, Kasparov, Parnas!!!! This is ridiculous that this information is not being sent around

Trump is always, “I dunno him.” “I never heard of him.” “I never met him.” “I haven’t heard of it.”

Yeah, he does know him but he is "a low-life"! He is such an ass!

Yeah. He knows. Re his being a "low life" – that may be an upgrade.

God sometimes uses bad people to punish other bad people. In this case I am very happy to see Bolton humiliated and potentially incarcerated, well deserved.

One day, it will be Trump’s turn and it could very will be that another bad guy will prosecute him.

Whoa, this truth brought a smile to my heart. Trump, for narrow-minded political paybacks, goes after a most endeared neo-Con Zionist bagman.

Let’s patiently wait to see the outcome of all of this. (My suspicion is that Trump’s will modify his Anti-Bolton stance after receiving calls from Jon Greenblatt, The Emanuel family, or Elliot Brandt.)

OH, it is very clear what rule he has broken: Speaking out about the gas-bag of a dictator! I am not fan of John Bolton but really? This is important? REALLY?

I understand. It’s a moral dilemma for me too, but it’s 💯 evil what Trump did. It’s authoritarian

FYI, tech people, this didn't render well in Firefox, with "Next Up" covering up "Play." Had to go over to Chrome, where it was fortunately no paywalled.

Hardly "Mob Boss".. just a big fat bully... the orange one has always wanted to be in the "mob".. he just isn't good enough. Basically, he's a loser... first order from the mob is "shut your mouth". Impossible for the orange stain .. if it's in his head it's out his mouth. You can bet the only time he piad his bills was when he had the "mob" do it... he'd never sue them... he's a loser and a dead beat...do I sound a little angry?
