Boyle: He would come on the local news doing his whole shtick: the biggest, the greatest, the most gold ever… then so many of those casinos went belly up. And by the way, do you know how bad that is? There used to be no competition from surrounding states. That’s how bad he is at business

Trump’s been having a lot of bad days lately, but today stands out:
*Indiana GOP kills his new maps
*Letitia James indictment fails for a 3rd time
*Judge orders Kilmer Abrego Garcia released
*New poll show him hitting historic lows
*Embarrassing clips of Noem, Leavitt making the rounds

Jump out of car to spray her again from even closer point blank range—chasing her from behind as she runs away in pain.
Agents get in car to leave—then get back out to spray her a THIRD time until canister is empty.

Huh, FBI having issues explaining how they're hunting down a principle?🙄
"Antifa is not anything close to a centralized grp but rather a movt or ideology opposing fascism. Trump only designated it as a terrorist organization to go after any left-wing opposition to himself or his far-right allies"🎯🎯

America’s healthcare crisis is measured in more than dollars — it’s measured in pain, debt, and preventable deaths.
As costs skyrocket, millions are forced to gamble with their health. No civilized nation should accept this.

After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family.
No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

We need sweeping reforms of the Supreme Court as soon as this administration is gone.
For nearly a century, Congress has legislated against the backdrop of Supreme Court precedent allowing it to put restrictions on the president’s removal power. That is likely about to change. lnk.thebulwark.com/48rIUEH
