NEW: Trump accepted $37m worth of donated steel for his WH ballroom project from the Luxembourg-based company ArcelorMittal. Days later, the WH made adjustments to Trump's tariffs that could benefit ArcelorMittal.

She talks a really big game for someone who only won her election by 0.34%. For reference, past margins of victory for Dem senate candidates in Michigan: 2020: 1.68% 2018: 6.5% 2014: 13.28% 2012: 20.82% 2008: 28.81% 2006: 15.65% 2002: 22.72%

Someone call that angry guy, Bill Donahue, A.K.A. the Catholic League. The Trump administration threatened the Vatican and ensured that Pope Leo will not visit the US while Trump is in power. Donahue claims that secular leftists like me engage in "Catholic Bashing." Then what is this? #vatican #usa

The Catholic League being like one angry guy would be funny if he wasn't so successful

Slotkin is so gross with her "what works in the middle of the country will work on the coasts, but not in reverse" bullshit

I hope that everyone tracking the Iran disaster is clear that the same level of care and attention has been applied to his domestic agenda as well

We're witnessing the inevitable result of electing a President who thinks being on television & posting on Truth Social is the same as actually doing the job of governing. Without a single figure in his team who can say: "Donny...shut the fuck up". So by Saturday, we'll be back in genocidal terrain.

Before I became an American, I was Lebanese. Parts of my family live in Lebanon. Anyway, you don't need those bona fides to feel this way, but what is happening in Lebanon right now is a complete outrage. The people there, who mostly are just trying to carve out a living, don't deserve this.

Russia's useful idiot says people gobbling foreign cash should be investigated. 👀

Remember how during Trump I, the key to his actions was whoever had his ear / attention just before he took action? Well now he is being tugged by Israel and Saudi Arabia on one side, and Putin and a loose network of European autocrats on the other. The POTUS is very compromised. #usa #trump

The news media need to learn to stop analyzing the actions of the Trump administration as having complex strategy behind them. It is time to objectively report that the old man is unwell, and he's actively being recruited by Putin to destabilize the world before the midterms. #usa #trump #putin

I appreciate the NatSec scholars explaining this to us. Thank you. But also: what if the old man is just demented? His impulses will lead him to Cuba, Denmark and Canada next. The midterm deadline is fast approaching. What else can he destroy and who else can he kill before November?

Man, what happened in Afghanistan? Could anyone provide 9 or 11 examples?

What was the feeling when everyone woke up today? Was it relief? Or was it anger? Casually looking at everyone's posts on BSKY, I'm going with anger. Rage, actually. Trump has made us more angry. Good. Now let's do a crippling nationall strike and end this regime. Enough. #usa #trump #nokings

This you? www.reuters.com/world/middle...

I have encountered and engaged with many Trump supporters, hearing them patiently out each time: and every single one of them, whether beneath a veneer of politeness or not, exhibited a fundamental spite and meanness about their fellow human beings that I found horrifying.

The 25-point shift to the Democrats in Marjorie Taylor Greene's district must have the Republicans pretty freaked.

NEW — Iran had already presented a 10-point plan. Then Trump wakes up today and threatens to blow up Iran's "whole civilization" if they don't bend. And then, just an hour before his deadline, he announces a ceasefire, citing Iran's "workable" 10-point plan.

On the substance of the day, and as I’ve made clear here and in the piece, today was truly a crisis akin to January 6. What happened today is not sustainable and Trump must be removed from office. When the clock was ticking, I explained how 25 could be used bc of its immediate effect.

Time to start up the discourse. Trump betrayed Israel and he must be impeached.

I'm gonna be real honest with you all right now, I really, really hate the use of a certain cutesy acronym to essentially say "Trump is too much of a pussy to end a civilization like he said" every day, but especially today. If you're feeling called out and upset by this post 🤷

never been happier about a TACO in my life now get him the fuck out of there

He has been ill for over 10 years. See it. Say it. Demand the media repeat it. #trump #usa #nokings

The Trump regime is on the brink of collapse. The sooner we realize that, the sooner we can act. #usa #trump #revolution

People are thinking and rememebring. They are remeebring that Trump has been ill for years. Remember when, on September 1 2019, Trump canceled his trip to Poland and then congratulated them on the anniversary of the Nazi invasion? Seriously. He canceled his trip, sent Mike Pence instead, and then:

It is Time. For Amendment 25. Me in 2019: "Trump has no interest to prove to the world that he’s normal. He’s ill, and he seems to accentuate his illness as part of his marketing." www.modifiedlimitedhangout.com/crash-and-bu...

Late in the game, we now realize that "Trump Derangement Syndrome" is actuality an admission that the old man has been deranged for over 10 years. Remove him now. #trump #usa

There's a non-zero chance AOC ends up being speaker. I'm all for it. The GOP is about to lose a seat as well. Dunn is dead in weeks.

I’ve researched the entire history that led to the 25th Amendment and what followed and wrote about all of it nearly a decade ago. Since then — and, in part, due to its limits and complications — I’ve only called for Section 4 to be invoked on two dates: January 6, 2021, and today.

When you’ve lost *checks notes* Josh Barro.

Embedded in an episode of Chapo is one of Will Menaker's best summaries of how the Democrats attack their base for drifting left while Democratic lawmakers drift right. The overton party. It starts with a discussion of the Politico fluff piece on Rahm Emanuel around 44:00. youtu.be/7BXi1mT0LEA?...

The fact that nobody seriously believes there is an institution in this country that will check the president—that we’re all just sitting here hoping that he gets distracted and fails to follow through on his genocidal threats—is the most damning indictment of our political system I’ve seen yet.

He needs to be removed from office. He knows his time is short. But crucially, so is ours. We must not allow him to kill us, our families, and our nation. This is not a suicide pact. 70% of the nation doesn't support him. Donald Trump must be removed. #trump #usa #impeach

Today should be the day that our top news organizations recognize that the most important and urgent question in the world is how to remove him from power. presswatchers.org/2026/04/ackn...

Personally I think when a world leader announces “Tune in tonight at 8pm Eastern to watch the world end” like it’s the fucking season premiere of Roseanne we should have a different leader the next day.

Among the most important details of Trump's backdown: China intervened. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04...

Haven't we had enough? We can end this, you know. #nokings #trump #usa

it's really so beside the point by now, but i cannot believe people gave this psychotic motherfucker a second chance.

This place is really nice. I had to go to The Netherlands for work like a decade ago and they arranged a really wonderful day trip to The Hague. Did a walking tour, saw some cool neighborhoods, even went to the beach. A wonderful town to have a seat of international justice.

We were at war in the 1960s-‘70s, and sadly again in the 2000s, the hopes of a nation and the world gone up in smoke and flame. “We learn from history that we do not learn from history”

BERNSTEIN: Gas prices yesterday “surpassed 2004’s peak to become the highest non-pandemic related gas price in AAA’s history.” ⛽️

Trump's press coference today hit all of his poplar marks. There's blood, violence, threats of death and impressionist, and a lot of self-contradiction. He wouldn't be able to keep a job as a barista nor an airline pilot. He should not have been president, and he shouldn't be president today.

What could have been. Convicted Watergate co-conspirator George Steinbrenner bought the Yankees in 1973. His competition was my old firm, Lehman Brothers. Lehman wanted to move the team to the Meadowlands, so that disqualified their high bid. But imagine if Lehman had the club as an asset in '08.

3/3 "We won the war" 3/9 "We must attack Iran" 3/14 "NATO please help” 3/16 "We don't need help" 3/22 "I will give Iran 48 hours" 3/23 "We had very good talks with Iran" 3/30 "Open the Strait of Hormuz immediately” 3/31 “A deal is very close” 3/5 "Open the fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards madman?

Maybe when you are a member of Congress, you should try to make sure you aren’t posting AI slop from a BS right-wing influencer.

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.

i think it's a bigger problem that article 1 is dead law than that the 25th amendment is

I’ve been saying this for a while, but Trump won because he quite literally speaks a (variant of the English) language that non-morons cannot actually pull off
