NEWSMAX: The NFL just chose the Bad Bunny Rabbit or whatever his name, this guy who hates ICE, he doesn't like you. Do you think maybe we should just blow off the NFL, like a boycott? TRUMP: I think it's absolutely ridiculous, and while we're at it I'd like them to change the kickoff rule.

Trump: "They interviewed people before & something, and I'm watching. A woman there's -- 'I don't care who they bring in. People are being killed here. I just want it to stop. They can bring in whoever they want.' People don't care. They want it to stop. That's what we did- we brought in the Guard."

NEWSMAX: The Insurrection Act. Is that going to be formally invoked? TRUMP: If you take a look at what's been going on in Portland, it's been going on for a long time, that's insurrection

Trump: "Washington DC is now so safe. Restaurants are booming, nobody is being shot and killed. They come in from Iowa, Indiana, they come from all over the country and the parents end up getting a phone call that their son was killed. Not anymore ... Chicago is safe. Now it's really safe."

i had no idea this is how canada's supreme court dresses

Meiselas: Trump claimed that he and the leaders of the Republican Party were speaking with Democrats. Is he being truthful, or is he lying? Jeffries: Well, as far as I can tell, that’s a stone-cold lie

Trump has never sounded guiltier than this and that's a high bar

Lying pos💩 ideals to cut people out of Healthcare Republicans suck

Monica Crowley: "In no way shape or form was the 2024 election close. Maybe her in own mind, but she may be delusional. The president won in a landslide."

Mike Johnson says he would accept Hakeem Jeffries's invitation to debate on TV but he's already "cleaned his clock"

Mike Johnson on AOC: "She hasn't read the legislation and I'm not sure she would understand it even if she did."

NEWSMAX: There's some polling out there that does suggests the public is blaming Republicans. MIKE JOHNSON: Well, I'm not surprised by some of the polls, because the mainstream and legacy media is completely on the side of the Democrats. The facts are on our side.

Trump: "He wants to be the healthcare president, as he is for all these other matters. And he's going to do it. We have lots of ideas."

Burgum: "He had a press briefing as he does -- so transparent, so available to everyone. And then that rolled into a discussion about ideas he has about making DC more safe and more beautiful ... he's got a great vision on how to make Washington the greatest capital and safest capital in the world."

Monica Crowley: "What a difference a presidency makes. We are now totally over that destructive, stupid era of toxic masculinity, and now we're in an era of real masculinity thanks to the bold muscular leadership of President Trump and our Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. We saw that in bold relief."

Miller gets his suits at my family’s store here in DC and I can assure you the lining on the suits he buys are specifically lined in cheap red, white and blue fabric.

at this point you have to acknowledge that there is no way that these guys don't try to mess with the 2026 midterms. there is absolutely no respect for the legitimacy of the opposition

bingo

Kids in New Mexico deserve to be healthy. Trump's Health Secretary RFK Jr. threatens the well-being of our children by ignoring experts, cutting Medicaid, and limiting programs that ensure kids have healthy meals. As governor, I'll always defend New Mexico's kids and support families.

Oh come onnnn

139 immigration judges have been fired, taken an early offer, or been involuntarily transferred. One of those immigration judges who was dismissed says she had been terminated without knowing why.

Who couldn't use $17 trillion?

This.

Yes, it is time to treat dirtbags with the contempt they deserve.

What would be more believable to you? The Jays scoring 23 runs in 2 games and go up 2-0 or McDavid signing for $12.5M AAV 🤔 #OverDrive

Hey there, @nytimes.com. The judge didn’t “decide not to immediately block.” She ordered a response from the government Wednesday and set a hearing Thursday. Let me know if you need help with this.

ICE is lying. Go figure

DHS is repelling from helicopters into apartment buildings to raid them and zip tie children in the middle of the night while saying "fuck them kids." They're shooting at people on the streets and lying about it. This is a hostile occupying force that is a threat to everyone's safety.

Oh yeah, and if they keep the government closed, they don’t have to swear in the last vote to release the Epstein files… youtu.be/UB-dPwDpwYM

The Trump appointee accusing the president’s political foes of mortgage fraud skipped over his agency’s inspector general when making criminal referrals,, bypassing rules meant to ensure that federal officials don’t abuse their power for partisan purposes. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Bless the Trump-appointed judge who blocked his illegal invasion of Portland. I love when my smiting is outsourced.

A huge shoutout to all the organizers who made the Eastern Iowa Rural Revival Forum a great event! Even though Ashley couldn’t make it 😉, it was great answering questions from voters - challenging our leaders to answer tough questions is how our democracy works!

He's already made a mockery out of presidential pardon power.

I'm starting to think the president hasn't even read The Federalist Papers

It's not too early to wish all my Caanadian friends, and those Canadian-in=spirit, a Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival and Chuseok! To all those that celebrate, may this season bring joy and harmony to you and your loved ones.

Right now, America is a country governed partially by the rule of law and partially by the rule of Trump. The two are in increasingly open conflict. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-rule-o...

Oh you can't get to heaven In Trump's dump truck 'Cause Donald Trump Is a fascist f___! 🎶

Will she heed the message?

You might've seen a CDC press release today about new vaccine recs In it, Jim "I hate vaccines" O'Neill spews misinfo Tl;dr: Covid and measles-mumps-rubella+varicella vax recs should effectively be the same as before (assuming no HHS tweaks to ACIP rec language) We read it so you don’t have to 🧵👇
