Don't trust Apple or Google or Meta.

Use Signal only. But with caution. You may receive unwanted classified information from Trump's cabinet.

"Like an incantation, they call the notion of insurrection into being to justify the Insurrection Act’s invocation when no such justification exists in material reality."

The Sinister Reason Trump Is Itching to Invoke the Insurrection Act

An authoritarian’s dream, the Insurrection Act is ripe for abuse — and Trump’s Cabinet is already setting up his justification to use it.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

Liar Vance

And a poor one at that. Very low energy lies.

He left his imagination on his couch.

Important to understand that MTG kickstarted this rebellion.

For important (and super fun) context, check out my half-hour video on this.

It helps you reconcile two competing emotions: Yes, MTG did a good thing. No, she is not a good person.

Watch for more!

Vance could not give a straight answer to questions about:

➡️ Tom Homan's alleged acceptance of a bribe
➡️ Trump's accusations that J.B. Pritzker is a criminal
➡️ Layoffs at the CDC

House Republicans are now scheming to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

And take away healthcare from tens of millions of Americans.

How did that work out for the extremists the last time they tried it?

Why do you straight up lie, Elise Stefanik?

Tish James has unequivocally stated she will not pay for her defense with that fund.

What is actually a “disturbing reminder” is what a shill you are for Trump and his nakedly partisan direction to make his lackey charge his enemy.

Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who correctly remembers that contrary to trump's post, Joe Biden was NOT the President on January 6, 2021 -- trump was.

His delusional episodes are increasing, it's time for the 25th Amendment.

HE IS UNFIT TO SERVE.

🧵“Canada has to rethink its role as neighbour, as trading partner, and traditionally as ally.
A country willing to: “you give us a 747, we’ll let you set up military bases in our country” [on the 🇨🇦Canadian border] with countries like 🇶🇦Qatar…like what’s next?!!”

If you can't yet see the 1933
Germany parallels, you either skipped history, or you're disturbingly comfortable repeating it.

Weiss is a columnist, not a journalist.

This will not end well for her career. Nor will it end well for CBS.
