If you can be charged with disorderly conduct or inducing panic for shouting 'FIRE' in a theatre when there is none, the same consequences should apply to shouting about 'election fraud' without credibility, and that should apply to anyone amplifying that conduct or panic.

Are the US #farmers happy that #Trump is giving them $8b of socialist #bailout, when he earlier gave a $40b bailout to their competition in Argentina? More #AmericaFirst lies.

@xbox.com With your announced changes and hour limits to Cloud Gaming today, maybe Game Pass isn't the right service to include this option. Not that you need another confusing product tier, but I'd rather have a simpler and less expensive plan that didn't include this add-on.

Make it make sense when you can be so opposed to clean energy #windmills as eyesores and disruptive, yet be so in favor of noisy, water sucking and energy draining #datacenters. Asking for a #trump

If one person can just rename a mountain or a gulf or a lake, what would stop the rest of the world from coming up with their own name for the same thing? It could have 1000+ names! Isn't that why names are supposed to be lasting?

If we're holding people in contempt of Congress, maybe start with the folks that refused to ever appear when they were subpoena: Jim Jordan, Scott Perry, Kevin McCarthy and Andy Biggs to name a few.

All this #Fauci news should really help people learn more about #Trump, since Fauci was his advisor and Trump was the person in charge of the pandemic response.

I'm not against #Fauci taking the 5th, but would have been better if every answer was deflected to 'you will have to ask Trump, he was in charge and making the decisions, and I can't answer to what he was thinking'

Is anyone really surprised that #SpaceX stock is tanking? This is a company that survives on government subsidies and still purchased over a hundred-million dollars worth of CyberTrucks. This is not a serious company that is going to make profits at what the IPO was claiming.

Why do college football teams get more oversight, scrutiny, and punishment for a 'lack of institutional control' than we expect from #HomelandSecurity and #ICE?

The low ratings for the Great American State Fair, probably the lowest ratings of any state fair in the country, probably ever, are embarrassing. Everyone that was in charge of that fiasco should be fired. Whole team of losers! The buck stops at the top!

What's with the JD #Vance victory tour over #gas prices? Sure they can down a little, still $5.99 here as opposed to $6.29, but still much, much higher than the price ever was under #Biden. Is this a signal #Trump thinks this is done and will do nothing else?

What else did you expect from #Trump, the guy that always pays to make his mistakes go away. This time it wasn't a little girl but he again forced himself on a whole country now forever traumatized. This isn't a #Deal for America, it's a #Surrender payment.

When the headline reads that Pete #Hegseth brings his wife to #Pentagon meetings, and you still don't know which woman is involved, that's both a bad headline and a reminder of how much Drinkin' Pete cheats.

The best thing about #TACO Tuesday is you always know what to expect. I mean, I'm very thankful we go to have a TACO again today and the alternative was unthinkably awful, but I'm really glad that the TACO is always so reliable.

Remember all of the campaigning about Alaskan crude oil and "Drill Baby Drill", yet now in a self-inflicted oil crisis there's no actual activity or plan to do any of what they were yelling about? #Trump and #GOP are all talk, no results. Yet another slogan with no substance.

The people that think the #SAVE Act will actually improve elections are the same people that think #Elon and his #DOGE team were effective and saved us "trillions".

The closest gas station to my home had prices at $4.99 regular and $5.99 diesel today. Call it #inflation or a problem with #affordability or just plain #profiteering but once again, it will only get worse. Thanks #Trump.

If the US is going to send troops to Iran, they should send #ICE first. I know they're not 'military', but I don't want real armed forces deployed and then outnumbered in the States by ICE chucklefarts.

I want to hope for the best but I have many, many doubts about Asha Sharma taking over #Xbox. Her appointment feels like the movie Major League, where they intentionally act to make their fans not care so that they can close shop and relocate.

I'm sorry, but why would you put any owner in the #NFL Hall of Fame? There's no differentiating, unique talent about being really rich between them, except for the ones that get creepy massages and support human sex trafficking, or give Super Bowl rings to dictators. Not really positives, though.

New entry in the best metaphor for the extremely boring or tedious category joining 'watching paint dry' and 'watching grass grow': Watching the #Melania documentary. Seriously, if you want a successful #documentary, shouldn't it be about an interesting subject?

People use #Temu as an insult to quality. I'd say in its present state, #Amazon is worse, because it's the same stuff as Temu, but ten times more expensive. One is cheap and knows they are, the other thinks they're top shelf while sourcing from the cheap store.

Every time more of the #Trump files get released from the #Epstein docs, it becomes more apparent how heinous Trump actions are. He's not a Law & Order president, he's full on #SVU.

Did the world know that when #Trump says #AmericaFirst he was talking about what he was going to destroy, and now that he's been successful, that why we see Venezuela, Canada, Greenland and NATO next?

As much as these #Greenland threats are a distraction from #Trump in the #Epstein files, he's also probably being told by Putin to take it, because it would decimate #NATO.

Hey, rest of the world, the US has just told you all that it's ok to enter another country and arrest its leader. Feel free to visit US golf courses for your own operations.

It's fun to Google 'what bad posture says about you' and the look at any recent photo of Droopy DonOLD #Trump. I'll pay a dollar to any reporter that asks him to sit up straight.

If this ever ends, I don't see Immigration & Customs Enforcement or #ICE can continue to exist. Permanently tainted. Not even a rebrand could save this; it would require full shuttering. Maybe even for the entirety of the Department of Homeland Security #DHS

There really needs to be a 'Break Glass' scenario for something drastic to be done when Congress is at an impasse, either real or manufactured (like this #GOP #shutdown). Maybe after 10 days of shutdown, the longest serving 2/3 of the House is ousted with a new, immediate election?

Thinking about the elected representative from Arizona that #MikeJohnson is refusing to swear-in. Why is a ceremonial, non-legally-binding performative swearing-in ceremony in any way a blocker here? The state filled the role, they should be working even without the theatre.
