Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Speaking of October, it’s the perfect time to talk about the Epstein files. They contain the names of America’s most powerful, richest, and morally vile men. I am now certain that speaker Johnson is in there because why else would he make such an ass of himself to cover up the truth

Michelle Caldier talks about WA’s overdose crisis, but when it came time to fund solutions for addiction recovery, behavioral health, and education, she voted no.
We need leaders who don’t just talk about the crisis, they fight to fix it.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.
