Tommy..
Former President Donald Trump’s conviction on 34 felony counts is evidence the American justice system is “no better than Venezuela or China,” according to Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala.
This ‘trial’ was a political witch hunt from the start,” Tuberville said in a statement shortly after the verdict.
He attacked Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg as a “liberal activist” and Judge Juan Merchan as a “Biden donor” with a “shared goal” of putting Trump behind bars.

Sleep..
A video appearing to show President Biden with his eyes shut for an extended period during a Memorial Day event on Monday has been widely shared on social media, with conservative activists alleging he was sleeping during an address by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.
Biden commemorated Memorial Day at the Arlington National Cemetery on Monday where he laid a wreath by the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier as part of an annual show of respect. News week.
Was he really sleeping or thinking deeply about something else?
Pity..
Pity the nation whose people are sheep,
and whose shepherds mislead them.
Pity the nation whose leaders are liars, whose sages are silenced,
and whose bigots haunt the airwaves.
Pity the nation that raises not its voice,
except to praise conquerors and acclaim the bully as hero
and aims to rule the world with force and by torture.
Pity the nation that knows no other language but its own
and no other culture but its own.
Pity the nation whose breath is money
and sleeps the sleep of the too well fed.
Pity the nation — oh, pity the people who allow their rights to erode
and their freedoms to be washed away.
My country, tears of thee, sweet land of liberty. ~Lawrence Ferlinghetti
