Seems like an extreme statement to make? This isn’t the time for pleasantries: people have died, are dying, or will die because of mistakes he makes. And, he knows it. #HHS

Now having finished the book, I did with it the only thing worthy of its bullshit. The time spent measuring and cutting was more meaningful than the time spent reading it…I still think our asses deserve better toilet paper. #OriginalSin @jaketapper.bsky.social

Gaza is descending into famine and Trump is turning his back on this moral crisis. There is no excuse - ever - to deprive civilians of desperately needed food and water. Trump must press Israel to end this blockade.

Hunter Biden finally said the real shit. Jake Tapper & his “sources” don’t know jack about the Party, what they did, or the Biden White House—and Tapper proved he’ll pander to Republicans for $. Hunter’s account is the truth. Maybe the next Biden destined to run for President wasn’t Beau—it’s him.

The Phillies just did a kiss cam between innings at Citizens Bank Park.
The song playing was "Clocks" by Coldplay. The Phanatic then kissed a version of the Phanatic in a blonde wig.

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it?
You’re kidding.

#Trump ‘s plan has always included bombing Iran to help Netanyahu stay in power. This, in exchange for weakening the #Biden administration’s diplomatic efforts to stop the war on Gaza - election interference. All this presidency does is grift, steal, and pay back cronies for back-room deals. #Iran

The #Dodgers are my speed. A good tip: don’t open your door. Ask for a warrant and have them slide it underneath. Better yet, don’t answer the door at all. #Immigration

ICE has NO AUTHORITY to arrest an American citizen simple for asking them to produce a judicial warrant (which they could not). How far is far enough? #BradLander
Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.
While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.
This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.
