ICYMI — Trump lied that Chicago had “4000” murders, when it’s projected to have 380 this year (way down from last year)

If it’s so bad there why does he have to keep lying about it?

And one more thing. Anyone who publicly begs for, and publicly demands, the Nobel Peace Prize should never be given the Nobel Peace Prize.

Benny Johnson is a well known plagiarist, grifter, & Christian nationalist who was being paid by Russia - to the tune of well over a $100,000 a month - to push Russian propaganda on the American people - the perfect bio for a MAGA influencer. We no longer have a Justice Department.👇

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Friday night Tequila tweet: I’m so fucking sick of how divisive Trump & his people are. Here she is, using her official government office for political/partisan purposes. To trash Democrats. It’s wrong, it’s illegal, & it’s a really shitty thing to do. I’m fucking sick of them trying to divide us.

You’ll never guess who is in charge of the Homeland Security Council….

NEW: A senior ICE official testified today the WH Homeland Security Council — and not the State Department — informed him Uganda was the deportation target for Abrego Garcia.

DOJ then asserted presidential privilege over any other details about the call. www.wusa9.com/article/news...

New: Judge Perry's ruling against Texas troops in Chicago is a banger.

1. Invokes Hamilton
2. Rips into ICE for lying
3. Says "law enforcement officers who go into an event expecting 'a shitshow' are much more likely to experience one than those who go into the event prepared to de-escalate it.

Great conversation with Fergus Macphee of @TimesRadio for his Trump Report. Republicans are scared to death to release the Epstein files. So the government remains shutdown. Have a listen.👇 youtu.be/ay6TC9kczlc

Epstein files will be released ‘as soon as US Government reopens’

Looks like everyone in my former political party has signed on to the Donald Trump/Stephen Miller game plan, which means calling Democrats “terrorists.” Terrorists? Despicable. Shameful.
