Trump: "The person who actually got the Nobel Prize called today, called me, and said 'I'm accepting this in honor of you, because you really deserved it.' A really nice thing to do. I didn't say 'Then give it to me, though.'"

Why doesn't a reporter just tell Trump the truth?
Or are there no longer any White House reporters who know what the truth is?

The president says there are very few stores left in Portland, Oregon, and the ones that are left are made of plywood.

I know we’re numb to this, but in any other time he’d have been removed by the 25th Amendment by now

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Anyway I hope the right keeps talking about the frog costumes. Keep it top of mind for everyone, how sinister and scary the dancing balloon animals are

In other words, Trump didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize because he doesn't deserve it.

Mike Nellis (@mikenellis)

A reporter asked the chair of the Nobel Peace Prize committee why Trump didn’t win, and the guy basically said it’s because he has no courage or integrity. Absolutely brutal.

So sorry to hear this.
Our pets don't know how long they live, only how well they live. I hope you can take some comfort that you gave Fergus a good life.

I think Dick Cheney and his outriders could also be responsible for this.

It's the Peace prize, isn't it.

It's only "premeditated anarchy" if it's from the ICE region of Washington.
Otherwise it's just sparkling chaos.

In 2018, the Mueller Report was supposed to be the thing that would get rid of Trump.
Now it's the Epstein Files.
Both are just fantasies. We want to get rid of Trump easily, like people now think Watergate got rid of Nixon (& it's forgotten now how long that actually took)

Cathie from Canada🍁 @cathiecanada.bsky.social · 3d

Nope.
As well as not wanting to spend a penny in Trump's America, we don't want to get arrested by America's fascist border guards.

Golden Dome is just a fantasy. So of course, Canada can clap for Tinker Bell too.

That, or it's an admission that Trump is actually dead, or planned to be by the issuance of the coin.

Miller's profile is now high enough that Trump will be getting pissed off at him.
Remember how Musk got all sorts of press coverage in March, and was gone by May? I suspect Miller will be gone before American Thanksgiving.
