www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv... Please read this! It is a perfect summation of what Trump is doing and why as he destroys the Presidency and our very nation as we have known it!

A reminder that the root cause of the lawlessness in our government is the convicted felon who is our President. He has infected this nation with his arrogant, selfish, self-serving behavior. He and every one of his accomplices must be rooted out, sooner, not later for the health of our democracy.

It was bad enough that Trump pardoned all the Jan 6 criminals. Now, he wants a billion dollar, tax payer funded slush fund to "compensate" them for having been prosecuted for their crimes????? Are you f'n kidding me?????

I am focused today on that election changing comment by Trump that he doesn't think at all about the financial problems that Americans are dealing with. He doesn't give a s**t about you!

We elected you to Congress to be a check on executive power, not a spectator. You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to protect a man who threatens democracy, threatens war, and threatens the future. Stop hiding behind voters. Stop punting responsibility. DO YOUR JOBS.👇

The answer is implicit in the question: Putin has ownership over both countries.

Yep. Too bad. Hegseth is one of many things we tried to warn the country about.

The country is at war and energy prices are spiking and all he can talk about is his precious ballroom. He knows more about the construction and detail details of this white elephant than he does about the people that are overseas fighting right now.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Here is a question to ponder this morning. What country stands to make a lot of money the longer the Straight of Hormuz remains closed? Answer: Russia. Oil prices will rise considerably, which will help Putin fund his war with Ukraine.

Thank you, Mr. President.

The Trump apologist checklist after Trump or his administration does something awful: 1. Fake news, it didn’t happen. 2. It might’ve happened, but it would be OK if it happened. 3. So it happened, so what. 4. Whatabout [insert names of various presidents here]

What he said Part 2: 💯 🎯

Trump's policies are leading us into recession, he's kicking people off of health insurance and denying them vaccines, he's destroying the rule of law, he's being played for a fool by Putin..but he's going to call the Department of Defense the Department of War! America is great again! Pathetic.

@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”

Hertling: When you saw Trump talking about how this is Biden’s war, saying it could have been prevented if Zelensky had just done X, Y, or Z — it’s ludicrous. This is a war that Putin has been planning and carried out on his own.

“The president destroying the integrity of government economic reports? Welcoming a war criminal to U.S. soil as his guest? Sending the National Guard into another American city and urging on police brutality? This is fascism. It just is.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

This art installation is a literal sound bath. Hundred sound bowls set a float in a bath to gently ricochet off one another creating a sound bath of seemingly random peaceful healing vibrations.

One thing the news media engages in to much now is normalizing the things Trump and his administration are doing right now. There is nothing "normal" about what Trump is doing. The latest example is the deploying of National Guard units in L.A., and supposedly having a marine unit at the ready.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

open.substack.com/pub/contrari... Yet another step down the road to autocracy.

Former Congressman Joe Walsh announced today on Substack that he is leaving the Republicans and becoming a Democrat. Good for him! He has seen the light, and knows that the party he once belonged to and served in as a Tea Party member is likely gone forever, thanks to Donald Trump.

In Donald Trump we have the most unaccountable president in our nation's history. And since he is inaccountable the same could be said about his entire cabinet, if not his entire administration. Disgusting doesn't begin to describe this.

Congressman Raskin got this right for sure .

www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru... The Trump administration is apparently telling the German chancellor to leave AfD alone (a party which leans toward a pro Nazi stance).

www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol... Our crriminal president, pardoning convicted criminals.Hmmm.🤔

Trump calls it a “gift to America.” I call it what it is: a $400 million bribe disguised as a jet, that he keeps. Paid for by Qatar and US taxpayers, owned by Trump. Corruption at 35,000 feet: youtu.be/hcqUvvy01UM
