Trump meltdown, gets called out for lying, calls the reporter crooked and stupid, and runs away abruptly. Trump: "Your elections in this country are crooked! we are like a third-world country, your elections are crooked!" "Your" elections? "Your" country? 🤔

Periodic reminder that Teapot Dome, the worst scandal in American history prior to Watergate, involved $9 million changing hands. That’s adjusted for inflation. This story by itself is 55500% bigger than Teapot Dome. That’s not a typo.

So say we agree just tweeting nighttime foreign policy can cause a backlash with your allies. It's as if the department of state should be communicating these things, through official channels, not an idiot from his golden phone.

And to be clear, this is not just Trump. For over 40 years, Republicans have been stealing our money and running up the national debt. Then as soon as they’re out of power, they blame Democrats for the economy they wrecked while they campaign on fixing our national debt.

If y’all could have heard the words coming out of my mouth when I saw this. Holy *bleep bleep* Raise your hand if you saw this coming 🙋🏻‍♀️ Lindsey and Katie Britt plan on introducing a bill that will give Trump $400 mil of our tax $ for his golden ballroom no one wanted. Wuttabout those donations?

Why is Trump so adamant about building his ballroom and is cool with the extravagant price tag…could it be security reasons? Doubtful… Far more likely — The Trust for National Security Mall connected to the fundraising for the ballroom is slated to make a 2%+ fee. The corruption is just insane! 🧵

Sixteen posts in 147 minutes. One every 9 minutes. Grievances, conspiracy theories, and arrest fantasies. Then people wonder why he’s sundowning in press conferences. Imagine the coverage if this were Joe Biden instead of Donald Trump.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces. 249 years later, we have this idiot.

These motherfuckers saw the most beautiful, untouched wilderness they’ve ever seen and the repugnant geriatric child fuckers immediately went “This is a perfect spot for getting two milligrams of gold and maybe some rare metals here and there”.

Republicans just handed the Boundary Waters to a foreign corporation. For the GOP, it’s foreign billionaires first, America last.

there’s a reason we have diplomats and ambassadors and foreign services and do not simply conduct international negotiations by off the cuff social media posts the new system we have is not “disruptive” it is not “bold” it is not “unorthodox” it is “tremendously fucking stupid”

The US press is going to hide this from you but the reason there are "strikes on Lebanon" and "confusion over the strait" is that TRUMP RANDOMLY AGREED TO THE CEASEFIRE TO ESCAPE HIS OWN BLUFF WITHOUT WORKING OUT ANY OF THESE DETAILS

24. There's no evidence Iran agreed to *direct* negotiations. 25. The U.S. has air superiority in Iran—not air supremacy (a key distinction). The volume of lies Leavitt just told Americans was such a *tsunami* that it confirms what I've always said: she must never be run live on TV.

21. Trump first said this war would last "4 weeks or less," and we are about to hit six weeks. 22. Trump began this war saying it was *for* the Iranian people, now he is threatening to *kill them all*. 23. There is no evidence Iran has said it will give up any of its nuclear materials.

18. Under 15,000 feet of altitude, Iran retains significant anti-aircraft capacity. 19. Iran did not initiate peace negotiations, Trump did. 20. Pakistan *wrote* the ceasefire—so it knows that it included Lebanon in it, and that Trump and Netanyahu are lying when they say it wasn't included.

"Ann Altman, the younger sister of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, filed a federal civil lawsuit in Missouri accusing him of repeated sexual abuse, including rape and molestation, between 1997 and 2006. The allegations state the abuse began when Annie was three years old and Sam was 12. "

For nearly a year, the administration has said that DOGE had no unauthorized access to your Social Security data. A new government filing admits that was false.

Trump, the war-monger of wars he can't even explain. The military budget Trump proposed today is $1.5 trillion. Adjusted for inflation, that's $260 billion higher than the largest military budget on record. It's not WWII-level military spending; it's parody-level.

SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

At what point do we admit we have become the USSR under a curtain of "Pravda": the state propaganda machine, "KGB": choose any of our three letter acronym secret police forces, the Party's five year plan, and single candidate system?

Given that Elon Musk was in charge of a department of DOGE that improperly accessed and kept personal information from all or a large number of Americans, can't a class action party sue him for breach of privacy for each American and thereby redistribute the wealth of at least one billionaire?
