Lemme speak with directness and a sense of urgency about our most important economic threats, and what history teaches us about moments like this.
The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.
He's a goddamn idiot cashing in on the work of scientists and then turning his moronic supporters against them while taking credit? No thanks, fuck off with this bullshit
This is embarrassing. Trump hosted an oligarchs’ dinner at the White House last night. The main course was kissing his ring. He’s going to take credit for investment plans they already made.
Gift article because I encourage everyone to read this account of SEAL Team 6 murdering a group of North Korean fishermen in a failed espionage mission that was hidden from Congress.
Hyundai accounted a few weeks ago plans to invest tens of billions in the US, and today 475 of their South Korean workers were detained by ICE in Georgia. Focusing on the most dangerous criminals, I see. Invest in a real country. This one's fucked. www.forbes.com/sites/siladi...
💯
That's what I remember too. Rotten chickenshit partisan hack
You had your chance to remove and bar him from the presidency after Jan 6. And you chickened out.
This story is WILD. Trump sent Seal Team 6 into North Korea to plant a listening device. The entire thing went sideways within minutes of landing when they noticed a fishing boat near the beach. They killed everyone on board, sunk the bodies to cover their tracks, and fled. Congress was never told.
From the Fox News National Security correspondent: "It looks to me like the US military is going to war."
Maga voted for a war with Venezuela because our dumbass military feels entitled to blow up any boats it wants that leave that country's ports? At the rate this country is declining it'll crash through the floor before the year ends
22k jobs added in August. June revised to NEGATIVE jobs for the first time since the pandemic. Are we great again yet?
BRUTAL JOBS REPORT: Just 22,000 jobs added in August. Unemployment rises to 4.3%. Broader jobless rate jumps to 8.1%. Slowest 4-month growth since 2020. Plus, downward revisions for June and July of -21,000. Yikes.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt was caught on a hidden camera saying the government will “redact every Republican” from the Epstein files and leave only the Democrats. He also revealed that Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred to a minimum security “to keep her mouth shut.”
I usually think that too, but there really is something to this Epstein problem he has... www.yahoo.com/news/article...
First Bernie Sanders. Then the CDC directors. Now, more than 1,000 current and former HHS staffers are demanding he step down.
The president and his sons made $5 billion on paper as their cryptocurrency started trading — highlighting the extraordinary degree to which they are personally profiting from Trump's return to the Oval Office.
It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.
Seems bad
FOX BUSINESS: “My goodness. $5 BILLION. Eye-popping numbers… crypto-friendly legislation coming from the president who is in turn cashing in on crypto. A conflict of interest.” Even Fox sees how insanely corrupt Trump’s crypto grift is. (H/T @ab21.bsky.social )
Banging strangers -> banging first cousins
It’s corruption, plain and simple.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
By far my favorite part of January 6.
"That is why I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it." Yes, there is a difference.
. THIS is one of the biggest problems of our time . . . ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ .
This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery." www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
"That's an 11-point increase in respondents who strongly disapprove of the president from the beginning of his term to recent weeks... A 9-point drop in respondents who say they strongly approve..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...?
They gaslit you all throughout the election.
The issue isn’t that Maxwell lied throughout her entire proffer. She has been lying, deceiving and manipulating people her entire life. I expect it from her. The issue is that the US Department of Justice gave her very tangible benefits already for those lies with more to come.
It’s clear that the main goal of the Maxwell interview was to get her to say that she didn’t see Trump do anything wrong. Which can only mean that there is something in the files that suggests that he did. Why else would she need to say that? The interview is more incriminating, not less.
Looks like a slow out of shape superslob
🚨BREAKING: Hours after Texas passed its new map, my law firm has challenged it in federal court. In addition to violating the VRA, HB 4 violates the 14th Amendment because it unjustifiably considers race and partisanship as part of a voluntary, mid-cycle redistricting. @redistrictfdn.bsky.social
Phew, the sex trafficker and perjurer exonerated the one man who can free her. I am totally persuaded.
"If you want to have a coup against the constitutional order, you want to control the capital city. And if he has control of the policing in the city of Washington...Who's gonna tell him to leave the White House?" @gtconway.bsky.social joins @jvl.bsky.social:
The judge points out that the 76 pages of grand jury testimony are a drop in the well compared to the 100,000 documents the government could release.

Watch this. Apparently, police followed Rep Collier into the bathroom and threatened her with a FELONY for being on a press call with Senator Corey Booker and Governor Newsom.
well holy sh*t 👉 www.meidasplus.com/p/today-in-p...
Gavin Newsom responds to Fox's Dana Perino melting down over his tweets:
Perino: You have to stop at with the Twitter thing. If I were his wife, I would say you are making a fool of yourself, stop it… He's got a big job as governor of California but if he wants an even bigger job, he has to be a little more serious.
Lol those tweets are super necessary right now, and she just proved why
Proof that Newsom is getting under their skin. These people lack all self-awareness.
As if we needed another indication that Trump and Putin are up to no good.
Can’t wait for @jaketapper.bsky.social’s book about this
If he wants to lean into it, I'm content to let the Epstein files and the public catching up on his j6 treason (after the scummy Republican party shouted down the committee and their findings) ruin this bum's presidency until he's gone. There aren't many better options right now
"Newsom’s threat to retaliate in kind is not a divisive attack on good governance. It is, instead, the only hope for democracy. Bipartisanship right now is appeasement. Democrats cannot and should not hide behind neutrality and fairness as MAGA incinerates the remaining tatters of our republic."
Russian tanks are now flying the American flag. Disgraceful.
If your integrity party is not in power while the non integrity party runs roughshod over the American people precisely because they don't have any integrity, and your response is "at least I feel good about my integrity", you shouldn't be trying to lead people or influence thought in this moment
JUST IN: The right-wing news channel Newsmax has agreed to pay $67 million to Dominion Voting Systems over its coverage of the 2020 presidential election. A trial had been scheduled for October. n.pr/3UuKeyZ
71% of Americans believe Trump knew exactly what Epstein was up to. Trump knows he's screwed bc of it. So screwed in fact, he has to try to shut down voting, gerrymander districts, embarrass a foreign leader, and embarrass US in his meeting with Putin... This is all desperation.
#AlaskaSummit
The White House is mobilizing red state military forces to occupy a Democratic stronghold and let me tell you: No one has ever pretended something isn't happening harder than Democratic leaders are pretending this isn't happening right now.
Federal Agent in D.C.: “Proud Boys? They’re great guys. They love the United States.” This is who Trump is sending into our cities to terrorize Black & Brown communities. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DNZldGb...
BREAKING: Arnold Schwarzenegger: “Mr. President Trump, you stood there like a little wet noodle, like a fanboy.”
So deeply embarrassing for the United States. Trump legitimized Putin and his illegal war on the world stage and got absolutely nothing in return. Not even a single step toward peace. Everyone involved in this charade should be ashamed.
that summit could've been an email
Shocker 🙄
Reporter: What’s going on with those posts on X that are clearly trolling the president? Newsom: I hope it’s a wake up call for the president. I’m just following his example. If you have issues with what I’m putting out, you sure as hell should have concerns with what he’s putting out
This is A+ trolling
Leavitt confirms that monthly jobs reports may be suspended "until they can get the data and methodology in order"
How the hell is not supporting lowering the penalty for a violent form of grand theft auto the same as putting an entire city under federal control like a dictator? Absurd false equivalence, and saying ridiculous bs like that waters down and normalizes the actually deranged stunts Trump pulls 🤡
Lol they just don't chase them away or even speak out against them if they know they're voting for their guy, and it's a little bit gross, but whatever. For what it's worth I'm that you're in the tent now. All hands on deck
The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.
We see your boss Kristi doing dumbass cosplays all over the place, including in front of an El Salvador torture prison where we send innocent people with no due process. Tell her she sucks an absolute fat dong for that. That's what I see and say
It's true @jaketapper.bsky.social. You fucking suck!
had Biden randomly wandered on the White House roof shouting at reporters about nuclear weapons, Jake Tapper would drop everything to pitch a new series of books and Hannity would anchor ongoing special coverage until 2029 but when Trump does it it's just Trump being Trump!
If you're in Texas dress up as the representative you look the most like and go hang out by the capitol 🤣
Shocker 🙄
All the pundits who criticized Biden for his preemptive pardons should be ashamed of themselves. He knew exactly who Trump is
BREAKING: EXCLUSIVE: A higher up at the Bureau of Prisons WAIVED Ghislaine Maxwell's sex offender status in order to transfer her to a minimum security camp in Texas, per source. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...
Well fraud is kinda his whole thing
These people are going to turn me into a conspiracy theorist.
We're not mind readers but...
Yea for 20 days after his party lost the most consequential election of our lifetimes months before and our country was heading towards ruin. Anyway, regardless of all that, what did you want him to do differently, and when, and what do you think would have happened after? Please enlighten us
I don't blame anything all on anyone you whiny jackass, but if you can't understand a military response after the type of atrocity Oct 7 was and refuse to acknowledge what happened to cause these events, don't be salty about the lack of friends or people who fight for your cause. Fuck off with that
Biden's response came immediately after a sweeping terrorist attack where Hamas targeted mostly civilians out in the open and was gleefully gunning them down and raping them. The things happening today come years after that threat was mostly naturalized. You're being a useful idiot for maga 🤡
Don't worry about your "morality". Fuck them up whenever they subject you to their abuse, and learn to enjoy it
Cleansing people out of their land (who don't want to move), and letting starvation as a tactic go unpunished or even be spoken out against is worse. Biden had to allow some type of military response after Oct 7, but whatever this is seems worse. www.google.com/amp/s/abcnew...
That bitch is stupid
“[Maxwell's] willingness to brazenly lie under oath about her conduct, including some of the conduct charged in the Indictment, strongly suggests her true motive has been & remains to avoid being held accountable for her crimes,” prosecutors wrote in a pretrial motion www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
CNN: We are just learning that Jeffrey Epstein's ex-girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell, was granted limited immunity in order to talk with Trump’s personal attorney turned deputy attorney general
This is truly insane. We are witnessing one of the most corrupt cover-up schemes in history—and it's all playing out in plain view.

July 18: If we have a smart president, you're never going to let the dollar slide. If you have a dummy, that could happen. July 25: A weak dollar makes you a hell of a lot more money. It doesn't sound good, but you make a hell of a lot more money with a weaker dollar than with a strong dollar
Ghislaine Maxwell Can’t Help But Notice Interview Room Covered In Plastic Sheeting
South Park kicked off Season 27 by putting Donald Trump in bed with Satan. Trump is going to lose his mind.😆
2010…
Absolutely surreal to watch White House reporters ask Leavitt questions about tariffs moments after she and Gabbard used this briefing to baselessly accuse Obama of crimes punishable by death. We’re a sick joke of a country.
She's a broken attention seeking lying rat with no moral compass. In other words she fits right in with maga
Lol bro that argument didn't work at all when it came to overturning the election in 2020 or hiding classified documents, though I agree with you... A lot of his supporters are nearly irredeemable by now
Kristi Noem lied about this multiple times in press conferences & TV appearances. This confirms the 3 day delay was solely caused by her. It’s an absurdity that the person who leaves govt is this man & not her stupid, incompetent cosplaying ass traveling with her (alleged) lover.
