  1. “Trump declined $10 billion he was statutorily entitled to under 26 U.S.C. § 7431 and converted it into a compensation pool for other citizens, so calling this a corrupt enrichment scheme is factually backwards.

    If anyone else got that award they would have taken it and ran. Joe Biden and every other Democrat out there.

    The fund’s text explicitly says “there are no partisan requirements to file a claim,” meaning Democrats, independents, and Republicans are equally eligible.

    The audit waiver is bound to pre-May-18-2026 conduct, not “perpetuity immunity forever” as the ridiculous media and out of job former attorney Liz Oyer claims.

    Biden pardoned Hunter for crimes he was actually convicted of and Jim Biden while Jim was under two active federal investigations, with an 11-year window and zero public-facing remedy and the same commentators called that defensible. Literally.

    So the Biden family could issue pardon for crimes committed and active investigations but Trump, who was actually agreed and is statutory entitled to this money set up a fund to help Americans who were victims of political persecution, and the demented media is calling it some kind of corrupt act?

    Of course that same demented media wants judicial oversight. Would that be the judicial oversight that consistently rules incorrectly in any case involving Trump and gets overruled sometimes 9-0 at the Supreme Court?

    Not one prior U.S. president has faced this volume of criminal prosecution, civil litigation, and unauthorized disclosure of confidential financial records simultaneously, so pretending this is a normal political cycle is dishonest bs.

    The Obama administration used the exact same Judgment Fund mechanism in Keepseagle $760M, no congressional appropriation and the press called that justice. But it was actually much worse because in the Obama case this settlement was made against the advice of career DOJ officials who thought they could win at court.

    Trump personally receives zero dollars, zero damages, and zero direct financial benefit from the settlement the only thing he gets is the audit waiver as protect protection so he won’t be targeted by the same Weaponized government should they ever get power again.

    Congress will never legislatively compensate Jan 6 defendants, FACE Act defendants, or dismissed-case targets, so the choice was this fund or no remedy at all for documented victims of politically motivated federal action.

    The media is very dishonest in this country and there’s a lot of experts who are even more dishonest. I am not an expert at anything except research and common sense. It is just basic common sense that when you have a president issue blanket, pardons for crimes that nobody even knows about that may or may not have been committed on his way out, and the media doesn’t bat an eye, but then you have a president who is actually wronged and who uses his settlement money to help those who are also politically persecuted smeared as corrupt the problem is the media.”

  2. Democrats are, of course, absent.

    They don’t want to hear what the victims of their un-American policies have to say.

    “Sheridan Gorman’s father is absolutely TORCHING Democrats on stage with Trump

    “I’m not a politician. I’m not a public speaker.

    I’m a father whose daughter was MURDERED by an illegal.”

    “I’m a husband who had to hold his wife on Mother’s Day when she asked the question no mother should ever have to ask: “am I still the mother of two?”

    “Yes, Jess, you’re still the mother of two because Sheridan will always be our daughter. No mother should ever have to ask that question, and no father should ever have to answer it. This is what FAILED POLICIES have done to our family.”

    “NO FAMILY should have to become experts in immigration failures, release policies, warrants, sanctuary laws, enforcement breakdowns because their daughter was KlLLED by someone who should NOT have been here, and should NOT be free.””

  4. Facts.

    “Reporter: “If everything you say is true, how does being part of that network justify being shot?”

    Vice President JD Vance: “Well, being part of the network doesn’t justify being shot, but ramming an ICE officer with your car—that justifies being shot. Not a good thing, by the way, but when you force somebody to engage in self-defense, it’s almost a preposterous question.”

    “You guys are meant to report the truth. How have you let yourself become agents of propaganda, of a radical fringe that’s making it harder for us to enforce our laws?”

    “You just asked me a question that presumed this woman died while engaging in legitimate protest. She tried to run somebody over with her car, and the guy defended himself.”

    “Next question!””

  5. It’s a miracle!

    Or it was Hamas propaganda our corrupt media pushed even knowing it was

    “These pictures are within a few hours. Several of the terror-supporting activists were on video walking out of Israeli custody in perfect shape, then pretending to be severely injured for cameras a few hours later, and then at the airport coming home being perfectly fine again. They simultaneously released a statement claiming severe abuse and other absurd charges.

    They have learned this behavior because they know it gets rewarded. They know the mere accusation will get promoted by New York Times writers like Kristof and others regardless if it is true.”
