Well we got things cracking on Seth Rich right now, we got USAA and Fox to turn around...

When the American People Unite, there isn’t anything we CAN NOT DO!!!

Bill Clinton is an impeached President...a sexual abuser and rapist, he lies, he cheats and he steals...he isn’t someone I would brag about and that old bag of his is worse than he is...and everyone connected to them...

So sit around and wait for someone else to do it, or join in and help...those are choices...

Please watch this awesome video of our President Trump in Arlington yesterday with Gold Star families. I, for one, don’t give a damn what the RATs and Liberal MSM feces say about our Donald.

Proud to be A Deplorable!

They literally have nothing on him after having every branch of the federal government tried to find dirt on him. This guy is the cleanest politician in America.

The “ crime” is deep state panic that Trump plans to push a “ reset” button with Russia

No world war over Syria
No world war over Crimea

And let’s not forget about that wildly successful “day without immigrants” protest, where the owners of a few overpriced restaurants in Manhattan mugged for the camera about how proud they were to take a day off from serving minuscule portions to clueless tourists.
