This isn't a new strategy, though. Trump said the Access Hollywood tape was doctored, too. It's about giving believers an excuse to keep believing and muddying the truth for everyone else. My story on this from 2020: www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

What are they pumping into Donald Trump right now to give him energy to do this press conference that was scheduled for 2 pm but still hasn't started at 2:36 pm? Any guesses? This is what corporate media and MAGA did 24-7 with Biden. Perfectly fair to ask.

My best tinfoil hat guess as to why this announcement is delayed is because it was an AI generated speech that had stuff about Chicago in it BEFORE that ruling on the illegal use of Nat'l Guard in LA, which would set a precedent for expanding any of that nonsense across the U.S.

Morgan J Freeman (@mjfree.bsky.social) reposted
"Department of War" is not a step towards peace, it's a step towards baking WAR into the fabric of our culture. This must be stopped. This is not who we are. It is simple abuse of power -- Trump breaks things just so he can fix them, and he's renaming things just to flex his flabby arms.

The Trump admin is now moving to effectively double the number of immigration judges by citing flimsy legal authority to deputize hundreds of totally inexperienced military lawyers to take these jobs. Notably, immigration law is infamously complex, often described as second only to tax law.

There's a school of thought which suggests that the only way to disable the fascist movement is to stop shielding MAGA voters from the consequences of their actions. Well, now that the GOP administration is disabling disease surveillance, response, and even basic research, there's no shield. 1/ 🧵
