Based on the rapid pace of Trump’s mental decline, which only exacerbates his malignant narcissism, repulsive behavior, megalomania, and habitual lying, 2026 is going to be a rough year.

This presidential “pardon,” as it’s for a state crime, is the equivalent of digital toilet paper, only flimsier and serving a less useful purpose.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

one of the worst days of the crumbling Trump presidency: loses In indiana, loses in Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, loses in Tish James grand jury, loses in House vote to override union busting EO, and FBI embarrassed in inability to answer basic questions about ANTIFA (which is not an organization)

The cruel irony of Republicans voting down ACA subsidies is that it will end up hurting Trump voters the most.
57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican.

Trump’s White House just threatened sanctions against the International Criminal Court unless they promise lifelong immunity for Trump, Pence, and top officials.
That’s right — they’re trying to bully the world’s top war crimes court into never prosecuting them.
What are they so afraid of?

Literally one of the main reasons why FBI missed Jan6 is bc Bill Barr had the FBI chasing Antifa.
All the Proud Boys had been turned "informants" on Antifa.

You’ve got to assume that any real organised crime or terror groups in the US know the FBI isn’t tracking them as closely as they used to.
That could be very bad indeed – and if so, you can expect to see the clips of congressional testimony like today’s many, many times.

Kinda wild that the organization the FBI considers the biggest domestic threat is ... largely imaginary.
