To be completely fair to him, he’s drunk - hard to be a good leader when you’re sloshed.

It’s even harder to be a good leader when you have absolutely no leadership qualities to speak of… so he’s double fucked.

And yes, nobody should sign that.

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

Reminder that this baseless indictment of New York Attorney General Letitia James is part of Donald Trump’s corrupt weaponization of the criminal justice system against anyone who has sought to hold him accountable.

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless.

And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.

Hey @marriottbonvoy why are you letting ICE agents stay at your Residence Inn property in Wilmette? They are terrorizing our communities. This is UNACCEPTABLE. You are enabling tyranny!

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

Going back to that raid on the South Shore apartment building. It hasn't gotten much focus that the goons reportedly traveled the same way Patriot Front does: in UHauls.
