Tonight, Trump is not doing a State of the Union. This is a joint session address that addresses the direction he is going and why.
The State of the Union addresses the results of a president's policies. Putin will do that next year. #uspoli

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Do you fly in airplanes? Drive on highways? File taxes? Have kids or elderly parents? Go to the doctor? Prefer not to be poisoned by toxic chemicals? Then you rely on the government services that Musk is hobbling. It is tragic that many Americans won’t realize this until those services are killed.

Another reminder of the power of rightwing propaganda and the failure of mainstream media coverage: more people probably have heard about USAID ‘funding’ Politico (it isn’t) than about USAID funding anti-malaria programs which were just cut off and frozen by Musk and Trump.

I do not recall a 24 hour or one week news cycle with more disturbing news about the state of the presidency and the US government in it than those of today and the past seven days. January 6 was nothing compared to this. But make no mistake, this too is the gov't being torn apart by a mob of thugs.
