Meaning I think his actions are indistinguishable from what they’d be were he a Russian asset.

Doesn’t prove he is one, but definitely doesn’t help build a case that he’s not.

The ICC has a “prize” for it.

Good point! More like “amarital” sex

He’s a madman.

Right wing politics is about wanting power and domination over others. Big Venn diagram overlap between that and child sex abusers.

Is Portland Burning?

No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

🤞 but i’ll believe it when i see it

it’s the only way these people can cope with how awful they are

Jennifer @efinnjer.bsky.social · 3d

How it is that people can’t see the obvious fascism that’s going on — after ALL we have seen and heard — is still mind-blowing to me. I found myself yelling at NPR in the car the other day as they wondered aloud why on earth national guard was being deployed into blue cities.

It is a *wild* get out of jail free card, huh? 😒

Jennifer @efinnjer.bsky.social · 3d

Perfect. No notes.

Adam Weinstein @adamweinstein.bsky.social · 3d

And... what would you say... *constitutes* this tradition he's bucking? What exactly is it *constituted* of?

NPR @npr.org · 4d

President Trump is bucking tradition and legal precedent in pushing to deploy the National Guard to Democratic-led cities like Portland, Oregon, and Chicago due to what he says is rampant crime and to support his crackdown on illegal immigration.

Literally trying to take it away to enrich themselves and their buddies.

Jennifer @efinnjer.bsky.social · 3d

it could not be clearer, yet tRump will probably go on TV tomorrow and just explain that’s what he’s doing.

Jennifer @efinnjer.bsky.social · 3d

You know what? I disagree with you on SO many things but I am proud to be with you in this fight! There are so many horrible feelings these days but feeling an alliance with someone else who would normally be a political opponent but who clearly cares about America like I do is so energizing! 🇺🇸
