Yesterday, @realDonaldTrump’s top staffer joined Trump, his lawyer, and his diplomats in confessing that the Trump Admin used taxpayer-funded military aid to pressure Ukraine into interfering in the 2020 election. There’s a simple question facing Republicans now. #TruthExposed https://t.co/tVkwkPk0VI John Z Retweeted

Yes, I’m running against @realDonaldTrump. But I also served as Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division of DOJ—and the POTUS choosing his own resort to host the G-7 isn’t even a gray area. It’s a crime. John Z Retweeted

Wow. Trump is now suing CNN over "pro-impeachment bias" and he demands a ‘substantial payment.’
So basically the news can't report the news because if it does, the President of America will sue.
It's a uniquely American take on dictatorship. John Z Retweeted
