Another way of looking at the "Conservatism Post-Trump" quandary is that Trump has done everything to piss off his very own base - & through a cult personality maintains faithful followers. Is there any conservative other than Trump who can piss off the base this badly & still maintain loyalty? 🧵

According to this president's admin, drugs are down 96.2% after a few short months of illegal murders. How could they know? They cannot. Lies are all we hear. Two months into this admin, one cabinet sec'y claimed Trump saved more lives from drugs than almost the entire U.S. population. Lies, lies.

DID PUTIN'S MAN TERRORIST TRUMP GET A PAYOFF? "The delistings come as White House negotiators have met with...Putin...to push a US deal to end the war in Ukraine, and days after the Treasury extended authorization for Lukoil-branded gas stations outside Russia to continue operating."

Redacting is one part of the coverup. Adding back into the files is another part of the cover up.

Yep

So, um, are those the files that were on Bondi's desk, ready to go, last February, or the files Bondi claimed didn't exist in June? How many months are they needing to make them reappear?

No new wars from the Peace President. Any one believe a word he says?

I know that what Trump posted after the Reiner deaths was despicable. I thought about posting to say how despicable it is, but, If this is the one thing anyone needed to convince them that Trump is a POS, you should have been paying attention a long time ago.

if you have a bunch of blueberries and one of them is moldy, exposing the others to it doesn’t make the moldy one healthy. it just makes them ALL moldy.

Actually I don’t believe this photo is far off the reality. I think that behind closed doors he’s probably in a wheelchair.

“My toughest critic and my best mentor.” That’s how Hegseth has described Eric Geressy, now a Pentagon adviser overseeing a team reviewing the role of women in the armed services. But @dfriedman.bsky.social uncovered a page tied to Geressy’s email that features books about “Asian wife sharing."

Betelgeuse-Betelgeuse-Betelgeuse!

MAJOR BREAKING: Despite Trump's threats, the Indiana State Senate has REJECTED the Trump-backed 9-0 gerrymandered map, leaving the existing 7-2 map in place.

Do Americans realize how this record of losses on grand jury indictments is unheard of in a normal DoJ?

I’m not reading all that but Trump just had another meltdown about something.

Folks, they are so desperate to deflect from the Epstein files

It's been over two weeks now and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Inappropriately, Trump grabs the medal and puts it around his neck, violating all the so-called honor of having it ceremonially placed around his neck while he bows forward to receive it. Wanna bet he wins this first ever FIFA peace prize a few more times?

I have no doubt he's gonna be reunited with Ivana, Jeffrey Epstein sooner than later, I'm just surprised that he hasn't already choked on his own bullshit 🥰,

Riddle me this: Erika Kirk is the president of Turning Point USA and was on ‘Southern Charm’ a few years ago, but is talking smack about career women? Help me make this sense.

What week is he living in?

Something is wrong with her.

Cowards cosplaying tough guys is the hallmark of this administration. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...

Now other countries can kill Americans who survive military attacks. No need for prisoners of war when you plan to murder them anyway.

Today is World AIDS Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness and supporting the individuals, families, and communities impacted by HIV.   (1/3)

Looks like Trump and Hegseth might be preparing to throw the military under the bus on the second strike. This is why you don’t execute illegal orders. Because you are responsible

Also remember that many of those came here on a dream while facing a culture ready to demonize any heritage not White enough. Not just now, but the entire history of this country, from 2/3 human definitions in the Constitution to immigrants we need services from now. We are far from done, too.

Non-Trumpian but Republican sister-in-law sends magatrupublican brother-in-law several articles on Trump's corruption. His response was, "So what? All politicians are corrupt." IOW, only Trump crime is ok.

👀

The number one reason Trump attacks the use of the autopen? Hunter Biden's pardon. Trump wants to invalidate it for a Hunter Biden political spectacle that goes on for months.

JUST IN: Trump says he’ll issue a “Full and Complete Pardon” to former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, convicted of drug trafficking last year in the US and sentenced to 45 years in prison. The most lawless president in history.

Only doormats believe Trump isn't one of the main names repeated in the Epstein files

"This has never been about 'illegal' immigration. It's about ending all immigration from non-white countries." — Me, six years ago

How does a shooter qualify for an additional National Guard presence by plus 500 people? Seems like there's a spendthrift sleeping in the Oval.

No peace deal will succeed in the long run without BOTH parties at the SAME negotiation table.

Beef smoothies? Vampire Turkey outbreak confirmed

"I don't think we've ever seen a president of the United States whose goal is to make us hate each other....you knew that they were just taking different positions on what they thought was best for us." @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @gtconway.bsky.social in George Conway Explains It All:

Cosplaying king is crappy look for a US President. Our media is fine with it.

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

Trump Derangement Syndrome. When this is all over, some of these folks are going to need serious detoxification treatment.

Ukraine has fully rejected Trump’s proposed peace plan on the basis that the plan is dumb as shit.

She is snide and arrogant. She needs to go.

So, um, what's the age of consent in Louisiana?

Trump gets giddy with supporters of terrorists every time.
