BREAKING: Trump doesn't remember/believe/understand HE was president on January 6, 2021

This is how unstable, how mentally unbalanced, how much of a dangerous mixture of dishonesty and insanity Trump is:

"Biden's FBI?" By Jan. 6 2021, TRUMP had run the FBI for 1,448 days #25A

Trump getting trolled bigly going into the weekend… We have to laugh at them, but we also have to fight them! Not necessarily in that particular order.

We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.

But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan.

Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.

Thank you, General. It’s relieving to hear there are still elements of the military still aligned with the US laws and values.

Those who claim to be Christian seem to be facing a cross roads. You cannot believe that Jesus Christ himself would be on the side of the masked thugs of ICE.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

This is out of hand. These agents are there to cause trouble and violence, not to keep people safe. These are the scenes that play out in war torn, destitute countries - not America.

How is it that those with unlimited resources, combat training, combat gear, weapons of war, & systemic power are threatened by regular people with cameras, signs, and chicken suits? It’s almost like our collective voice matters. Keep it loud and non-violent fellow protectors of our Constitution!!!

Understand that the Reichstag Fire—the faked emergency Hitler used to seize power—is happening right now in America.

Trump and his goons are lying about crime and who they are arresting to provoke the violence they will justify martial law with.

It's the fascists' final maneuver to end democracy.

@ericswalwell.bsky.social is asking the same question Americans are asking... Where's the 17 trillion dollars this regime and #47 have "saved" by firing everyone, tariffs, eliminating departments, projects, programs...

This is the best messaging I’ve seen from any Democrats on the shutdown. Kudos to AOC, Bernie, and their teams for putting this out there.
