This country loves to pretend we are a kind, generous people who love our children. For half the country that true fortheother half they are barbarians in tailored clothes. The party of family values let kids bishop like fish in a barrel.

I’m mildly surprised that Republican voters and America Firsters have bought Scott Bessent’s bullshit that American taxpayers aren’t shipping billions to Argentina to bail out the massive personal investments of Bessent’s friends. I guess loyalty to these crooks takes precedent.

Reporting on this Virginia Governor’s debate is tough when Winsome Sears just continues to interrupt and talk over Spanberger.

Reminiscent of Trump 2020 and we saw how well that worked for him…

Don't let the media bs you. Trump wants trials because he had to sit at the defendants table.. Huge ego blow.

There are no republicans only magas. They are all in with their shitler.

Khashoggi's Ghost @urocklive1.bsky.social · 6h

No Republicans will speak up ... or they will claim turnabout is fair play, ignoring that Trump committed serious crimes and was convicted of all of them that went to trial.

The Republican Party has become unamerican, against everything they used to believe in.

Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co · 6h

Yet again, Trump is grossly abusing the criminal justice system by directing an unqualified political lackey to indict his adversary.

Let’s be clear: this kind of corruption is how authoritarians become dictators.

And this is also on every Republican who doesn’t speak up.

Bill19971 @billkane0812.bsky.social · 7h

Why do networks even bother interviewing republicans because they will only do what Trump let's them done.

Hey farmers, this is what you voted for. You gave power to a party that has destroyed your markets,tariffed the supplies you need. They took away the farmers' biggest domestic buyer with their USAID destruction. Military, you voted for him also. I have no sympathy for you,

Mulling over military pay but funded masked marauders as well as sent $20b to Argentina.

While Soldiers and Families at Walter Reed, as well as all furloughed, wonder if they’ll be paid.

Basically, the media is losing their shit over a concept of a plan. Bibi doesn't want the war to end, so we will never get through phase 1. Already two day delay on hostage exchange.

Trump’s Gaza peace plan does not resolve all the issues, @yair-rosenberg.bsky.social argues. "But Trump is counting on the force of his personality, the exhaustion of the parties, and the momentum created by the initial agreement to ultimately end the war entirely."

The Gaza War Isn’t Over Yet. But It Could Be Soon.

Trump may have ended the Gaza hostage crisis. Can he end the Gaza war?

Everyone can set aside partisanship, psychologizing, pathologizing, whatever, and—I would hope—still see that it’s incredibly dangerous for a political leader to be this disconnected from the real conditions in the country.
