In 1830, Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act, which forcibly relocated most members of the Native American tribes in the South to Indian Territory. The relocation process dispossessed the Indians and resulted in widespread death and disease. Jackson opposed the abolitionist movement, which grew stronger in his second term.

President Trump on Monday suggested without evidence that his predecessor, former President Obama, committed treason in connection with the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign’s contacts with Russia.

“Treason. Treason. It’s treason,” Trump said in an interview with CBN News. The president did not elaborate on the specific charge but repeated his assertion that the previous administration “spied” on his campaign in the course of the Russia probe.

“They’d been spying on my campaign,” Trump told CBN News’s David Brody. “Turned out I was right. Let’s see what happens to them now.”

So Donnie pump tweets that China deal intact, futures completely reverse a ~2% drop that happened in about 20 mins, and US thereby voluntarily surrenders any leverage we might have had in further China trade talks (because this showed that announcement of cancellation of deal would limit down Donnie’s precious market)

Oh what dealmaking!

Top 5 worst Presidents. Easily, imo. I see why Trump loves him.

A lot of coverage of the McGrath/Booker primary today. Seems a lot of build up for a race that Dems have no shot at flipping.

If spying on Americans = treason, let's talk about the military surveillance flights over protesters in Seattle, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, NYC, etc.

Trump fancies himself in Jackson's image. Someone told him that at one point and he glomed on to it. Of course he has no context as to "who" Jackson actual was and what his policies were. He probably only knows that he is on the $20, and he likes that. So much so that he put Jackson's portrait up in the Oval office

I agree that Jackson is on the list of Top 5 worst Presidents, and wonder where Trump ends up on that list. There are a lot of Pennsylvanian's rooting for Trump's demise just to move Buchanan out of his traditional top spot.

He is right but not in the way he is trying to make it sound.

It wasn't spying. It was investigating and he was being investigated because he was committing treason.

Q: "Mr. President, at that rally when you said you asked your people to slow down testing, were you just kidding, or do you have a plan to slow down testing?"

Trump: "I don't kid."
