Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

The President of the United States just posted an AI video of himself wearing a crown and shitting all over the country, and by tomorrow it won't even be news because:

1) It's Trump, and he always does insane things

2) Because he'll do something else even more shocking and degrading then

Provincetown has a year-round population of 3600.

I'm guessing there were at least 1000 at No Kings today.

Sorry I managed not to get the people in the inflatable lobster suits!

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Don't forget the multiple acts of obstruction of justice Trump committed to conceal classified documents he stole!!

Mark Zaid, Esq @markzaidesq.bsky.social · 4d

Everyone can read Bolton's indictment & judge as they want, but this is far, far weaker (and more customary of conduct by senior govt officials) than allegations against President Trump in stealing & storing marked classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.

Mark Zaid, Esq @markzaidesq.bsky.social · 4d

I've handled countless classified prepublication & Espionage Act cases. Bolton indictment, which is very similar to Gen Petraeus case (2 years probation, $100k fine), should raise concerns for every senior govt official who writes a book.

Because this is generally how it is done.

Trump wants to shift disaster response to states. It's now hurricane season: VA, NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, and LA are in the bulls-eye, all Red states. NC learned a big lesson last year, & was grateful for the aid until Trump cut promised long-term support. #ProudBlue
