In fiction, Ian Fleming gave James Bond a license to kill.

In fact, Republicans, mainstream media, corporations, billionaires and SCOTUS gave Donald Trump a license to lie—and kill.

Fact is more dangerous than fiction‼️

Her parents owe their lives to the United States accepting them as asylum seekers fleeing religious persecution in Iraq in the 1980s. She wouldn't be here if we had not offered her family safe haven.

The hypocrisy is stunning.
Habba: There were individuals that were saying that this should be a safe harbor, a safe haven. Why? America is America because we protect our own.

Montreal is our European city and hopefully the rest of the country learns from this.

Also, now I'll be singing "Bye bye, mon cowboy/bye bye mon gigolo" all week.
IMPORTANT: “I boarded Montreal’s brand-new light metro line for its first voyage. From the front of the driverless train, the crowd got a privileged view…The journey was not just a tour of the REM’s 14 new stations, however—it was a preview of the most ambitious transit expansion in North America.”

Canada has forgotten how to build fast, cheap transit. A new megaproject has the fix.

I never talked that way to anyone growing up? Why? Because I’d get my ass kicked. I just feel like we’ve lost the threat of a good ass kicking and it has somehow cost us as a society. Guys like this run their mouths with impunity. Why? No fear of an ass kicking. Bring ass kickings back, I say.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

No child, absolutely no child, should die, especially from senseless gun violence. It’s upsetting and tragic that this country hasn’t figured out how to stop this.

My heart is with the city of Stockton right now because a parent shouldn’t have to come home without their child tonight.

My law firm is currently litigating 11 redistricting cases in 10 states. We are also litigating an additional 54 voting and election cases in 27 states.

This is as many cases as we typically handle going into the final months of the election. 2026 will almost certain be a record breaking year.

Trump: what is that, my big toe?

Doctor: that’s your brain, sir. And it’s not supposed to look like that. It’s what I’ve been trying to tell you, you’re in serious jeopardy!

Trump: I like jeopardy. Alex Trebek, he was famous you know? Don’t know why they replaced him with that other guy.

“Trump says” he’ll release his taxes. That was 10 years ago.

How do they still treat a thing he says as credible?
