Multiple things are true here. This is a fascist, authoritarian administration. It has not yet fully consolidated power. Some of its efforts to do so have been frustrated. Trump is a doddering, confused egomaniac who started an unpopular war that's costing everyday people a lot of money.

Abdul El-Sayed on Fox News: "I don't want to choke anyone out. What I'm interested in is making sure that everybody can breathe. And right now you've got an economy where folks are getting choked out because they don't have the basic means of a dignified life."

This is all so impossibly, stupefyingly ridiculous. A species that has organized into societies and built a civilization that generated cathedrals and symphonies and hospitals and calculus and Shakespeare is crescendoing with millions of idiots putting the worst-ever human in control of it all.

🔥 WATCH: “Trump lies and lies. None of what he said is true. For 25 years Trump has lied about 9/11 to put himself in the story and make himself the hero.” Best-selling author @jeffpearlman recounts Trump’s sick, narcissistic lies about 9/11 and other tragedies.

He is such a ridiculous loser. History will remember him as such. His golden chotchkies will be thrown away. His renamed lakes will be changed back. His name and likeness will be stripped from public buildings. His arch will be bulldozed. He will be remembered as a criminal and an idiot.

The Trump Presidential Library should be a museum cataloguing his egregiously corrupt conduct, the sycophantic response from his party’s elected leaders, the systemic weakness in our institutions and laws that permitted it, and it should celebrate the program of reform that will respond to it.

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the seventh richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

OH. EMM. EFF. JEE. 🤦‍♂️ Why don’t you go release an Epstein File or something, homie, maybe get us out of freaking Iran, make gas a little cheaper. Maybe hire some people to keep diarrhea off of our lettuce and measles out of our elementary schools. Renaming a lake? Laughable, bro. You’re a joke.

It's so weird that Dolly Parton used her money to help ordinary people in a thousand different meaningful ways *and* lived an incredibly happy fulfilled life, almost like there's some sort of connection between the two. Anyway, let me read about another AI CEO poisoning a town for shits and giggles

We will never be able to unwrite this ridiculous cartoon character from our country’s story. It’s all so sad.

From the official DHS account. Doesn’t get much more un-American than this. If you’re not alarmed you’re not paying attention.

Keep punching.

Ossoff: It’s been amazing to watch this White House melt down over this all week. And about Natalie Harp, these White House staffers are adults, public officials paid by the taxpayer, with immense power in positions of public trust.

Yeah, he DOGEd USAID and wrote death warrants for countless children, and yeah they cancelled subsidies that would’ve kept health insurance slightly more affordable, and yeah they cancelled a bunch of funding for scientific research on things like vaxes and cancer, etc., but at least he… wait, what?

nytimes.comU.S. Debt Hits $40 Trillion as America’s Borrowing Binge ContinuesPresident Trump’s promises to restore fiscal order and reduce the amount of America’s debt burden have been undercut by spending on the Iran war, tax cuts and tariff refunds.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Looks like the WH put out the bat signal in the influencer groupchat because hit dogs are hollerin'. Ossoff's "travel with Natalie" is causing a nuclear-level MAGA meltdown and a lot of inference is happening from just 3 words, so Trump's camp seems to be telling on him. Yikes.

“it costs less money than what we’re doing now” is the only answer we need to push normies towards universal healthcare
