That it'll fail because they lack sufficient consolidation and centralized control does not make it trivial that the president of the United States is trying to steal elections and produce an illegitimate sham Congress. It is open rebellion against the Constitution and morally tantamount to treason.

Status reports that ABC News deleted that explosive story about the Trump kids getting billions in federal contracts for their companies. ABC hasn't explained why they nuked the story, even as Trump has crowed about its deletion, sparking a firestorm behind scenes. www.status.news/p/david-elli...

Inflation has surged to its highest level in more than three years since the U.S. and Israel launched their war on Iran, triggering a surge in gasoline prices. n.pr/4oiHyCt

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces began launching self-defense strikes against Iran, at 5 p.m. ET today at the Commander in Chief’s direction, in response to yesterday’s downing of a U.S. Army Apache helicopter. The mission is a proportional response to unjustified Iranian aggression.

SCOOP. From my OUR LAND newsletter: Trump's DOJ is helping to get a convicted FBI informant tied to Russian intelligence out of prison. The lie this guy told the FBI—Joe Biden took a $5m bribe from Burisma—was the main evidence for the GOP impeachment drive. 1/2 link.motherjones.com/public/44694...

2/ CRISIS ONE: Trump believed Iran would not close the Strait of Hormuz. He was wrong. And now oil prices are spiking. If the Strait stays closed, a global recession will result. It actually may already be too late. Gas prices are the first to spike, but food prices are next.

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

Trump: "I've cut hundreds of thousands of jobs"

This needs to happen at the very least

MAGA and the NRA have made clear that they don't actually support the Second Amendment, at least not for people with politics they hate. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Man, I bet the NRA is going to be furious when they hear that jack-booted thugs from the federal government executed a law-abiding citizen for exercising his Second Amendment right to carry a handgun. Any second now, I'm sure. He was a white guy, if that helps? Hello? NRA?

This is the first example I’ve seen of an American government using AI to meaningfully misrepresent actual events with the intent to deceive the public. We are at Stalinesque levels of propaganda. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/past-the-b...

Toronto poli sci PhD applications: 201 two years ago, 385 this year. Trump's policies are working great, just not for the US

Textbook counterinsurgency recommends about 1 soldier for every 20 residents to pacify and control a city. Minneapolis has about 430k people. Add St. Paul and the metro area, it's millions. 2000 ICE officers all in Minneapolis makes for a ratio of 1 to 215. Enough to harm, not enough to control.

There you have it; the Trump admin allows ICE lawyer James Rodden to stay on the job. His personal social media account praised Hitler, supported white nationalism, and said that America started going downhill the day that Lincoln was elected.

This is it right here. They are content creators who value style over substance. They are not picking up violent criminals

RFK Jr is just contributing to the Republican effort to distance the US from democratic countries on behalf of Russia.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific. They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him. Stop the lies.

Yes. The point of outright lies contradicting what we can all see isn't to convince anyone in a genuine debate, it is to assist their confederates in creating enough noise, they hope, to bring the truth into doubt for those who aren't going to review the evidence.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

I wonder if crime will be "rising" right before the midterms

Tyler Bowyer, Turning Point Action USA COO, was one of 11 fake electors who were indicted in Arizona, then pardoned by Trump. Heritage Action is the group that tweeted threats to Indiana state senators. Indiana Republican state senators did not cave to extortion-type tactics.

-They are hiding the Epstein Files -They are hiding the video of the boat murder -They are hiding job numbers -They are hiding military leadership from the press -They are hiding Trump's repeated health issues -They are hiding detainees taken illegally *They do this because they are lying cowards.

Republican congressman: You have a lot of hardworking people who gave up a lot of things to be here in Congress, only to find out that all they get to do is come here and rubber stamp whatever Donald Trump wants. You can get a monkey to do this job.
