Did you know that the US hasn’t had an ambassador in Moscow in 6 months?

Or that our chief envoy to Russia won’t take briefings from the CIA?

But wait, there’s more. Much more in this 6-byline WSJ piece on the Witkoff-Putin axis.

No one was saying—or even imagining—that Trump had Rob and Michele Reiner murdered.

But this morning, Trump showed up to tell us all that Trump thinks Trump had Rob and Michele Reiner murdered.

The ravenous, all-consuming narcissism that has rotted the mind of this man requires that every event, every tragedy, every circumstance be ultimately about him. Others in the world do not exist as fully human; they operate only to validate Donald Trump. This is a gross display of mental illness.
Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer were murdered. This is how Trump decided to respond.

Every reporter should wear this on a t-shirt and ask every Republican to comment on it. When they say, "I haven't seen it and can't comment", just point at your freekin' t-shirt.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!
No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

He’s letting white collar criminals walk free:
More than 1,000 people submitted statements attesting to their losses…‘hardworking, everyday people,’ including small business owners, farmers, veterans, teachers and nurses.
“I lost my whole life savings,” one wrote, “I am living from check to check.”

Still depressing that this isn’t THE story of his first year.
The numbers vary from study to study but hundreds of thousands of people have died because of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio illegally disbanding USAID — a body count on par with the first eight years of the Syrian civil war — In just seven months. It’s mass death that is simply unfathomable in scale.

Another day, another TEN missed opportunities for the DNC to speak on behalf of Dems about the abomination of the day.

Mark Kelly shouldn’t have to defend himself alone.

The DNC, the national Dem PARTY should be speaking up for him and the other members of Congress all over the place.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

OMFG!
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

There are four leaks to plug for Trump: the survivors, Ghislaine Maxwell, the Epstein Estate, and the 1000+ FBI and DoJ employees he locked in a building and forced to remove his name from the files.

Good luck, asshole.

Here's what I mean when I say it's very clear Ghislaine lied.

A few weeks after Blanche's chummy interview, in which Ghislaine (among other things) denied there were cameras at Epstein's brownstone, this unsourced NYT article that did not mention Blanche posted pics making it clear there were.

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.

I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.
