He's always been hyperbolic and delusional. He repeats himself so much that he and his followers believe whatever he's saying. So many people trust FOX "News" and don't even get out of their own spaces enough to know that these things might just be blatant lies.

Today, I drove an hour and a half with my wife and a couple friends to pick up a neighbor who was summarily, inexplicably arrested by ICE at a check-in ten days ago and then just as inexplicably released, 100 miles from home today. It was a happy occasion, all things considered, but...

This is stupid, of course. Portland was their practice for this crap. He sent goons in vans to kidnap people off the streets during the Black Lives Matter protests. The mayor and the governor didn't want him to send them back then. Listen to the people who live in these places.

Democrats should never vote to fund a government that's waging war on its own citizens and firing officials *because* they insist on following court orders instead of breaking the law. Let Senate Republicans nuke the filibuster. None of this is normal and it shouldn't be treated as such.

Who pays when he loses his lawsuits as president? Are we, the taxpayers, footing that bill?

We should be boycotting over the monopolization of our media in addition to the assault on free speech.

Sovereign citizens. I became aware of them during the Malheur Occupation in Eastern Oregon. 🙄 Apparently they think the laws don't apply to them.

We live in the upside down when Brian Kilmead, who *poses* as a serious newsman, gets to keep his job and Jimmy Kimmel, comedian/court jester is fired.

Is he a UK citizen? Why is he trying to influence their election process? (Yes, I know why.) Can he be banned from the country for election interference? Can the UK divest from anything Musk has a financial stake in? He should have some kind of consequence.

Brain drain to Europe and Asia is inevitable, where science is not just valued but celebrated. Rapidly, the US will fall behind other countries in the development of lifesaving therapies leading to groundbreaking drugs, biologics and med devices.
