Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.

Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

Trump is posting more photos of dead birds and wind turbines today.

In one photo he captioned “Eagles going down!”, it’s actually a photo of a red kite from 2010 in Spain.

The other photo is from 2006 in Taiwan.

Perhaps for the first time ever, Trump's "Truth Social" is featuring the actual truth rather than Trump's lies.

This can't last. I predict that Trump will call in Musk or some other tech bro to "tune" the AI bot to deliver only "alternative facts" that support autocracy and racism.

During the height of Epstein's child molestation empire in the 1990's. Trump flew on Epstein's aircraft over 8 times between 1993 - 1996. He lied and told us he never flew on the plane.

Trump's opening words,
"11 MONTHS AGO, I INHERITED A MESS" was perhaps the biggest lie of his entire angry Miller-written speech.

Taco Don inherited a booming economy from Biden, & so far, he's driven it into the ground.

Let's hope MAGATs can separate the salesman from the product.

AOC: “President Trump ran on a promise to the American people that ICE would go after the worst of the worst — What we have seen is that ICE is not overwhelmingly going after criminals — In fact, over 70% of people currently detained in detention facilities do not have a criminal record”

Let’s hope the shift continues and that Massie and Greene are not the only (R)s with the guts to be vocal about the depravity of the goddamn U.S. President real soon.

I got really fucking excited reading James Carville on economic populism for the Democrats: “It is abundantly clear even to me that the Democratic Party must now run on the most populist economic platform since the Great Depression.”

DOGE is one of the greatest failures of the Trump administration. The next Democratic administration should pick up that issue and actually work to cut government waste, fraud, and abuse. I’d suggest starting by taking a look at Elon Musk’s government contracts.

Every reporter who speaks to republicans should be asking if they defend a President calling a female reporter “piggy”.

Trump shouting “Quiet, piggy!” at a reporter is gross and very much on brand, but it's problematic to me that I’ve seen more reporters tweet about that than Trump saying he has no idea who the hell he's pardoning. They just ignored one of the biggest stories in the countr. Drives me insane.

I hope most people realize how ridiculous it is for Trump to encourage Republicans to vote to release the files WHEN HE CAN RELEASE THEM WHENEVER HE WANTS. The whole reason the discharge petition exists in the first place is because his administration tried to cover up what’s in the files.
