He may be demolishing one of the most iconic structures in American history…

But on the bright side, the billionaires he gave massive tax cuts to will have a nice ballroom to dance in.

You’re not invited, though. 🫤

And your healthcare premiums are going to skyrocket. 🤷‍♂️

"I didn’t get caught," boy says. "Nobody got some handcuffs on me."

Washington Post editorial board, 2 days ago: "The idea that Trump is easily swayed by Putin, let alone manipulated or controlled by him, does not hold water."
Shouting match. Cursing.

And this ⤵️

Trump "adopted many of Putin’s talking points verbatim, even when they contradicted his own statements about Russia’s weaknesses..

"Trump told Zelenskyy that Putin had told him the conflict was a 'special operation, not even a war.'”

John Bolton was charged this week with 18 counts of mishandling classified information by either illegally transmitting or retaining national defense secrets, because he emailed 2 family members from personal accounts and used a messaging app.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

In Guiffre’s book, Epstein threatened to harm her brother if she ever told anyone about the abuse.
This is what they did to Katie Johnson when she filed her rape charges against Trump & Epstein; threatened her & her family leading her to drop the charges.

Very sad to see what’s happening at Indiana. The school has decided it wanted to muzzle its student newspaper to only print fluffy campus life stories in special sections. When they pushed back, the school cut all print funding and fired their staff director

It’s weird how the “young” Republicans are actually full-grown men and JD Vance treats them as children who shouldn’t face consequences for their racism, misogyny, or xenophobia.

But pregnant 12-year-old little girls are treated as adults and must literally bear the consequences of rape and incest.

I'm old enough to remember this guy's predecessor as speaker calling into Fox News from a secure location on Jan. 6 to beg MAGA rioters to stop. "This is so un-American," he said, as the pro-Trump protesters attacked police.

This line didn’t make sense the first time he said it, and it doesn’t make sense now.

The fact that they continue to demonize millions of patriotic Americans engaging in peaceful protest tells you everything you need to know about them.
