Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis. Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention. So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption. 1/ Here it is - in one🧵

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

As I remember, the framers decided to call the head of the executive branch the President because, to them and at that time, “to preside” implied a far less powerful role than “Minister,” “Executor,” etc. His job was just to preside over the gov’t doing the will of Congress.

I continue to be struck by this language of “in accordance with the president’s priorities,” which treats the executive branch as an extension of the person of the president, and not a mechanism for instituting the will of Congress

Tuberville, who represents a state that famously leeches off the taxpayers of other states and who took millions in taxpayer money to coach college football at public universities, is not just stupid and racist, he's a vile and hypocritical piece of shit. www.al.com/politics/202...

The Dickin Medal is the highest award that can be issued to animals in British military service. Bearing the words "We Also Serve" it has been awarded 75 times since its creation in 1943. Only one cat has ever received the award. This is the story of Able Seacat Simon, of HMS Amethyst. 🧵 1/25

Trump went to the South this weekend. Not to visit flood victims in Kentucky, but to have his security drive him around a race track. He doesn’t give a shit about you or your needs. He’s on a vanity tour for the next four years.

This is horrifying.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: The Pentagon has informed the press corps that NBC, NYT, NPR, and Politico will “rotate out of the building” to give space to New York Post, Breitbart, and OANN. This is awful.

The drones are easy to explain. Clearly, it’s just Santa checking up on people as he decides who’s been naughty or nice. Mystery solved. 🤷🏻‍♀️
