I wish Fox News and any of those other RW TV stations would broadcast the footage of armed ICE agents in gas masks are pepper spray on people in inflatable frog suits! It is not a war zone!

Trump said Portland was on fire and bombed out. Wrong. There is no insurrection! However had to use pepper spray to thwart an amphibious assault by dancing frogs!

The Trump administration on Saturday scrambled to rescind layoffs of hundreds of CDC scientists who were mistakenly fired on Friday night in what appeared to be a substantial procedural lapse.

Donald Trump and his inner circle have been ostentatiously circling around the idea of cracking down on “insurrection” in recent weeks. Here's a reminder: dissent, protest, differing political beliefs ≠ insurrection. #Velshi

Inside the think tank speech that foretold Trump’s obsession with The Insurrection Act

When OMB Director Russell Vought was working on Project 2025 - the blueprint for seizing power in a second Trump presidency - he spoke about how his think tank was building a rationale for invoking The Insurrection Act to deploy the military on American streets. Now, Project 2025 is here. National Guard troops have been deployed to five American cities - and worse could be on the horizon as Donald Trump and his inner circle have begun labeling a wide range of people and behaviors as “insurrectionist" in recent weeks. What we are witnessing is a real-time test of whether our democracy can survive a government that sees its own citizens as the enemy.

The Trump administration is doing everything it can to block folks from getting vaccines, and yet, Trump himself just got the flu and COVID vaccines.

Do rightwingers get this? Trump has convinced them that COVID isn't real while taking the necessary steps to protect himself from COVID.

Trump is threatening to withhold back pay for federal workers furloughed during the shutdown — which goes against a law he signed in 2019, by the way.

This should come as no surprise: Trump and his businesses have been accused of stiffing hundreds of their own workers out of pay over the years.

So Trump might go to the Middle East on the weekend as the peace talks are going well. He is not sure which country he will visit.
I suggest Egypt as that is where the talks are happening.
He will probably go to Qatar as that is where his golf club is. After all it is the weekend!

Americans should revolt, cause a general strike, demand Trump quit and call for Miller et al be prosecuted.

Phang: How are these Epstein victims supposed to feel about closure when you see Blanche meeting with Maxwell and then giving her a minimum-security camp move?

And now, conversations allegedly that Trump is going to have with the DOJ about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. It is an abomination
