Israel has killed nine paramedics in just 72 hours in southern Lebanon and itās business as usual. Now imagine the outrage if that was nine Israeli paramedics. The entire world would be screaming and condemning it as terrorism.

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a ādeal.ā This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.
