Who would have thought a multiple felon who instigated a coup attempt to stay in office would thumb his nose at the rule of law when he was reinstalled?

I’m trying like hell to be polite, but if someone follows me and then DMs me despite EXPLICITLY being told I don’t want it, I’m becoming a sort of asshole I never intended to be. So be it. I try to not be a hassle to those I follow, and I expect the same.

We wanted to know if Trump's attempts to bully the Fed could unintentionally cause mortgages to become more expensive. So we talked to a podcaster who'd spent the past 6 hours trying to get Grok to say the N-word.

This is so important… Sharon has been tracking license plates on cars driven by ICE agents, and she’s finding they don’t match the vehicles. In other words, ICE is using secret, illegal tactics—just like we suspected. REMINDER: the DMV is not a federal agency. @governor.ca.gov 🧵

Sort of a late, late LATE breaking news story, but better late than never. I guess. The leader of the free world is a Lincoln Log-shy of a cabin. His cognitive faculties are in decline. Like with Reagan, only now there’s time to correct our trajectory.

For anyone who needs to hear it: As long as Trump rules, the reports on job statistics or any shifts in labor need not be accepted. Not better or worse employment. Nor better or worse wages. The numbers under Trump’s regime exist only to placate Trump.

I’m not interested in just letting this go. Thanks to House leader Mike Johnson, congress adjourned until September before being forced to release the Epstein files. Why and oh why do they need cover for the release? What flapdoodle are they going to conjure in the time being?

If she ACCEPTS a pardon from Trump, she is required (per pardon rule) to ADMIT GUILT ! If she admits guilt, then NY state can use that admission of guilt in prosecuting Maxwell at the state level - so far she refuses to plead guilty - so she’s also in a pickle

This is one of the most awkward things I've ever watched. Trump, who has no idea what he's talking about, is regurgitating things off a piece of paper to generate grievances against Powell, who DOES know what he's talking about, and is visibly frustrated and annoyed at being attacked for nonsense.
