What probably happened...

Remember the fun? It brings a smile to my face.

Explains the collective amnesia...

Jeffries didn’t force leverage. He cleared the runway. Warning Johnson early that Democrats wouldn’t help told him to whip Republican votes and pass it anyway. Chaos creates concessions. This wasn’t obstruction or resistance. It was assistance, impotence, and deference to corrupt institutions.

In an interview with New York magazine, Donald Trump described his father Fred Trump’s memory loss in old age, then forgot the name of the disease himself, prompting press secretary Karoline Leavitt to supply the word “Alzheimer’s.” 📰 Read more: newrepublic.com/post/205679/...

Despite the rhetoric, Dems funded ICE with no operational guardrails. House Dems had real leverage on the DHS funding bill and chose not to use it. Seven Democrats voted yes, and the bill passed 220-207. If they voted no, it fails 214-213. Power not used against known abuses is consent.

Primary Cowards. Vote Out Enablers.

“We’re releasing everything. Tremendous transparency. People come up to me and say, ‘Sir, we’ve never seen transparency like this.’”

Supreme Court Deadly-Force Standard Shows ICE’s Actions Violated the Law (ICE kills a mother & US citizen) In Tennessee v. Garner, the Court said deadly force can be used only if at the exact moment it’s used the person poses an immediate, unavoidable threat of death or serious harm. 🧵(1 of 8) 👇

Marco Rubio says Maduro will stand trial in U.S. courts. That means the U.S. position is: 𝗨.𝗦. 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨.𝗦. 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. #Authoritarianism

I Just Reviewed a Shocking 119-Page Epstein Doc 👀 Trump’s DOJ was required by law to release all unclassified Epstein files. They released about 10%, leaving roughly 300 GB hidden. One document was 119 pages of solid black. And Karoline Leavitt states, "Trump is the most transparency president."

Rubio says “Font You!” in a bold, Times New Roman, culture war. Declaring the nation “overdue for outrage,” U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio took a hard stand against Calibri, calling the font “woke” after learning it helps visually impaired people read more easily. 🧵(1 of 5)👇

𝙏𝙝𝙚 $250,000 𝙁𝘿𝙄𝘾 𝙇𝙞𝙢𝙞𝙩 𝙄𝙨 𝘼 𝙇𝙞𝙚 The FDIC limit has been stuck at $250,000 since 2008. In real dollars, that now gives us only $180,000 of protection. If it kept pace with inflation, it would be closer to $400,000. 🔥 Help this get attention ‼️ 🧵(1 of 4)👇

If Congress doesn't stop this now, they're giving the administration license to expand illegal military attacks, including on Americans.

I guess Putin DOES have the photo of Trump blowing Bubba 🌬️

Why didn't they give MBS the Zelenskyy treatment?

🏠 How $56 “Savings” Will Cost You $1 Million (My analysis on the Truth Social post below.) Most first-time homebuyers today are around 40. Under Trump’s new 50-year mortgage plan, they’ll never own their homes. With life expectancy at 79, they’ll die still in debt. 🧵(1 of 4) 👇

🔥 Newsom fought Trump in court and won. Illinois waited months when it should’ve led. Blue states can’t react—they must act first. When Trump pushes, push 2–3× harder than him. Proactive, aggressive defense is the new bar for democracy. govpritzker.illinois.gov @democrats.org @demgovs.org

The Brits unleash Shakespearean invective fit for lit class 📚 Trump, in his own contribution to English, gives us: “Nothing bad can happen, it can only good happen.” 🤔 Equally memorable—one for literature, the other for ESL 😂

Before facts were known, the radical right was calling for retaliation and violence — exploiting tragedy and mourning only that their civil war was postponed.

⌛The Same Day.🕯️Mourning Kirk. 📂 Burying the Epstein Files. While we were flooded with Charlie Kirk shooting posts, Senate Republicans blocked releasing the Epstein files. 🔥 Don’t be distracted. Demand answers!

🇺🇸🕙🛑 Frozen Clock: My 9/11 Reflection Today I’m reflecting on visiting the 9/11 Museum. The image that struck me most was a clock pulled from the wreckage—stopped at the exact time the Towers came down. It put me right at the center of the tragedy, and I’ll never forget the feeling. 🧵(1 of 3)👇

🚨⚔️ Trump Exploits Shooting — A Power Grab Fueled by Violence Yesterday, I discussed among friends about being saddened by Charlie Kirk’s killing... The same sadness I feel from lives lost for public figures or school shootings. Violence is never the answer, and we need to reject it. 🧵(1 of 14)👇

🇺🇸🧪 Want Freedom? Try Living Past 35 Without Science ⚰️ I’ve always advocated for healthy eating & exercise—they absolutely matter. But let’s be honest about what ACTUALLY saves human lives, as Neil deGrasse Tyson points out. 🧵(1/8)👇

I saw this post: “The U.S. is the only place where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education—because the rich tell them to.” That line hit me hard. I dug into the global data. What I found shows why our democracy is called FLAWED. 🧵(1 of 6)👇

THIS LABOR DAY, CONSIDER: 🇺🇸 We Have ZERO Paid Days Off by Law—America vs World Democracies And Trump says Americans have “too many non-working holidays.” But here’s the truth 👉 📊 In top democracies, workers are entitled to ~32 days off every year by law (vacation + holidays). 🧵(1 of 5)👇

Gun lobby wins. Kids lose. Fix that.

125 people are killed with guns daily—and 200+ more are shot & wounded. Just this week, tragedy struck a school in Minnesota. During Mass at Annunciation Catholic School in MN, a shooter opened fire—killing an 8-year-old & a 10-year-old and wounding 15 others, mostly elementary kids. 🧵(1 of 8)👇

✍️🔥 Trump slamed the Smithsonian for showing “how bad slavery was,” whining it ignores America’s “success.” He prefers DeSantis’ version... slavery was a résumé booster. That’s propaganda. America must tell history honestly—or risk repeating it. ⚠️

🇷🇺🦜 Trump’s plan = fewer voters, slower counts, more chaos 🚨 Putin told Trump the U.S. is the “only country in the world” with mail-in voting. And like a good little puppet, Trump parroted that lie this week. But he went further—he also called for eliminating voting machines entirely. 🧵 (1/6)👇

🌎🖍️ Trump's world map is basically a toddler's coloring book First he tells us "I'm going to Russia"... except the summit was in Alaska Then, when asked about leaving Alaska, he says "I'll go back to the United States" How can Trump "make America great again" when he doesn't know where America is?

❌🛑 Two days ago, Trump admitted he can’t stop Putin: “No… I’ve had that conversation… then I see a rocket hit a nursing home.” Yet today he meets Putin in Alaska—alone. No witnesses. Perfect setup for shady deals, sanctions relief, and political favors. 🤫🏔️

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Trump Hands Off Presidency, Devotes Full Time To Hosting Own Award Shows 🎭🏆 "America deserves a president who can truly shine under stage lighting," Trump announced today, rolling out a red carpet on the White House lawn. 🧵(1/5)👇

They didn't even bother to take down the webpage. Trump openly spits on the facts, leaving a wake of lies. www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/v...

Tough On Crime? Trump sent troops to D.C. and federalized police to scare peaceful Americans as a warning to the rest. But 180 gun shots fired at Atlanta based CDC Headquarters targeted scientists and killed a cop— NO STATEMENTS, NO ACTION. Authoritarians always pick their battles.

So the guy who "couldn't" activate the National Guard on January 6th suddenly can today?

📊 TRUMP’S “EMERGENCY” IS A LIE ⚖️ Trump just sent the National Guard into D.C. & seized control of the police—claiming the city is in crisis over violence and homelessness. EXCLUSIVE: I pulled the government’s own numbers. They tell a VERY different story. ...see chart 🧵(1 of 6)👇
