NEW: Trump has targeted political foes — including Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook — for claiming more than one primary residence on their loan papers. But ProPublica found that at least three of the president’s Cabinet members have done the same thing.

California, Oregon and Washington announced yesterday they’ve created their own health alliance, saying the CDC has become “a political tool that increasingly peddles ideology instead of science.” New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island have now done the same.

Right up until the minute Trump’s business ventures like Trump Shuttle, Trump Atlantic City casinos, Trump Steaks, Trump University, etc, etc, went bankrupt, Trump was claiming they were a huge success with big things right around the corner. Just like now with the economy.

Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.

Once authoritarians capture enough institutions, time is on their side, not ours. Resistance gets riskier, opposition networks weaken & the public grows used to this new way of life, until finally there is a generation that never knew true freedom. We are at the point of no return. #Resist

Trump’s attempts to “Reset” U.S.-Russia relations have failed as Putin has shown little interest in peace. This last ditch effort to end the war in Ukraine, before Trump’ is embarrassed into pressuring Putin to save face, are likely to falter. This Summit is another giveaway with no upside.

A few things are clear from this: 1. Trump has lost control of the narrative. 2. Trump is panicked about what is in the Epstein files. 3. When the files get released, Trump will say they are forgeries. 4. Trump is going to target Democrats with political prosecutions.

It is seriously dangerous territory when Trump fires anyone who doesn't cook the books for him. The entire economy hinges on the accurate, nonpartisan data we get from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Republicans need to join us in fighting to protect the integrity of BLS.

Exactly. Once they admit he’s done one bad thing, there can be no stopping point, as he’s a bottomless pit of moral depravity. And once they step on that slippery slope, they can’t escape their own culpability. So instead they look away, and lie to others—and to themselves.
