Republican candidate Brandon Herrera: “I fucking hate cyclists. Jesus fucking Christ! ….I had fucking fantasies of running them all over and, you know, maybe one of these days I will. …I have thought about ways that I could get away with it.”

Ossoff: "Americans aren't a race. We're a people, united not by ethnicity but by shared convictions. That is what makes us exceptional and a beacon to the world. This is what small men like Donald Trump and Mike Collins will never understand."

If Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk all agree that we have to slow down - and now - something serious clearly happened with a frontier AI model. Journalists should be digging in to this. We aren’t getting the whole story here.

I don’t believe for one second that Trump has suffered a stroke, much less multiple strokes. I have known people who suffered strokes, and afterwards none of them could walk up and down the steps of a large airplane, or get up in front of a crowd and make a speech.

Trump: So Please raise your right hand: I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States Crowd: I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States… Trump: I'm going to try and cheat like hell like they do.

Donald Trump displays a sustained and baffling level of stupidity that goes far beyond the occasional mistake, and makes one wonder how he has avoided wandering off into oncoming traffic, or tasting bits of broken glass.

I wanna point out something serious. The admin has been complaining about Iran winning the information war. This same administration shut down Voice of America, and other information operations the US govt does. It’s a self goal. Actions have consequences

"When you have a president who's running the country like a mob boss instead of a government, who's running the government for himself, of himself, and by himself, & for his cronies, instead of the people, by the people, and for the people, there's only one solution, & that's impeachment & removal."

Ossoff: "After years of this president trashing our allies, we learned today that the Danish govt was preparing military options to defeat a potential American invasion of Greenland just months ago. The president has treated our allies like they don't matter then demanded they come to his aid."

Trump finally discovers the value of allies… but only having started a war he has no idea how to end. This is why past presidents have tried to win allied support in advance. But Trump couldn’t be bothered.

He’s flailing. He’s leading the country—and the world—toward catastrophe. When incompetence mixes with arrogance, the result is dangerous for everyone.

The dude is circling the drain. He’s now calling on people in media to be imprisoned for treason if they don’t report on the war to his liking.

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.

The tragedy is that there are so many people who will be shocked when the midterm elections are canceled. They have not been paying attention. If we can’t vote the Republicans out, we will have to think of another way to do it. And we’d better think of it fast.
