Donald Trump is a wartime president.

War on women.
War on voting rights.
War on Latinos.
War on California.
War on institutions.
War on history.

Trump’s multiple speeches today summarized:

“ME ME ME ME ME”

He’s STILL talking?

Sheesh. What an ego. And putting the Pakistan leader on the spot to praise him and pitch for the peace prize. One-track mind.

Firing someone purely for their political affiliation is illegal and is a violation of free speech.

Tweet from The Bulwark: “Q: ‘How many layoffs have you authorized?’ Trump: ‘A lot. It will be Democrat oriented… They should be Democrat oriented. It will be a lot and we’ll announce the numbers over the next couple of days... Many of them will be fired.’”

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

People should ask him to show footage of people injuring themselves on them.

Why doesn't Donald Trump remember that he was President on January 6th, 2021?

Sorry, but maybe Michiganders should’ve voted blue last November. They are responsible. A President Harris wouldn’t have done this.

Will the reporter please ask him what the hell he’s talking about. Demand he shows them the footage he is seeing. @kaitlancollins.bsky.social @peterbakernyt.bsky.social @whpcanz.bsky.social

Please help remind me to outlets to not say the murderers name.

Kimber MacV @kimbermacv.bsky.social · 2d

Thanks, I had no idea what you were talking about.

Kimber MacV @kimbermacv.bsky.social · 2d

If the interviewer is going to ask such a question, they clearly have to have the article or video ready to show the person so they can’t get out of it. Unbelievable.

Would be great if George or #ThisWeek staff would have the article ready and give him or any guest time to read it. It’s SUCH an easy out when they say “I haven’t seen it” or “I haven’t read it…” Why does the media continue to give these hucksters an out?

Great reminder to Jewish foundations that small synagogues need funding too. Relying on dues is not enough. I’ve seen too many fdns fund “education” but then say synagogues are not eligible. Why? What about “education” towards a B’nei Mitzvah?

You mean he didn’t enjoy her hostile performance at that recent Senate hearing? Yikes. Fingers crossed 🤞

"The president has already announced that if a judge does rule against him, he will invoke the Insurrection Act and then continue the military deployments. This is where we’ve been headed since January 6, 2021."

We aren’t at the worst-case scenario yet. But if you squint, you can see it looming out there, just over the horizon.

Trump says he’s slapping a 100% sales tax on top of the rest of his tariffs, forcing you to pay that much more for just about everything.

This would mean chaos and pain for any small businesses that rely on China for trade & business.

Republicans could end these tariffs today.
