The older I get, the more I appreciate typos… or is that the AI effect ? 🤔
To also be fair, I think we were naïve - or so it appears in hindsight but what 20-something isn’t a bit?
Go figure - everyone CAN pay their fair share. The wealthy may pout a bit but at the end of the day, it is not a meaningful enough dent to cause them to leave.
The GOP is in disarray.

The White House getting gutted for a one-man vanity project that benefits no one but said man, right after 7 million people said “please fuck off,” is such immaculate symbolism it’s making my head spin.

Honestly, you really could not make it up at this point.
The power void is changing the relationship between states and the federal government, especially in blue states.

I think this is a great outcome because it provides another check and balance - and makes governors more relevant.
Thank you @governor.pa.gov for protecting our rights in Pennsylvania.

Just the type of person to hang out with Epstein - and abuse those who have few defenses against him.
New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.
Betting my old professor’s office when he was national security advisor, which I had the opportunity to visit, was flattened today.

Sad but also pathetic.
President began demolishing the East Wing of the WH to build there his $200M+ ballroom.

East Wing was built in 1942 during the presidency of FDR. It was constructed to cover the bunker that he used during WWII and the President's Emergency Operations Center.

So proud of everyone! The NYPD confirmed that rallies across the city have ended with no arrests. It’s getting harder and harder for Trump to sell his propaganda.
No violence, no conflict - just joy and defiant support of democracy.

Americans did good today!

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings
