America, this guy is a liar.

Trump on DC: "Nobody wanted to eat out. They were afraid. Even if you were in the restaurant, people would walk in and like the Wild West, 'Hold it up!' Everybody is standing there. Can you imagine? A fancy restaurant. They were robbing the whole restaurant. It's crazy."

Astonishing: Maxwell was willing to tell Blanche about some of Trump's rapes, and he ordered her not to. "Let's not talk about inviduals." WTF were they there to talk about? There's EVIDENCE on this.

Amanda Marcotte@amandamarcotte.bsky.social

This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up. Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking. The media response is "yawn."

He needs to be impeached just for being this stupid. It's embarrassing to have someone this stupid in front of a microphone.

Comey: Well, they're back again. It would almost be funny if it weren't such an appalling abuse of the DOJ. One that we cannot become numb to. Nothing's changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid of these people. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary.

And we know Trump is a stickler about proper handling of national security information…

Federal prosecutors have brought new charges against former FBI Director James B. Comey, accusing him of mishandling national security information in October 2016, according to court papers unsealed on Monday. More: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It's really damning. The accusations are numerous and well-supported. But I was really struck by the descriptions of Trump's behavior -- the name dropping, strong-arming, and attempts to buy off silence. His gross rivalry with Epstein. It's all so familiar. It's shit he's been doing his entire life.

NEW AD: “Ken Paxton says I don't have his experience — and he's right. I’ve never been indicted for fraud. I’ve never been reported to the FBI for bribery. I’ve never been impeached by my own party. And I’ve never given a sweetheart deal to a pedophile.”

If your elderly relative routinely blew up at women and insulted them, grossly sexualized other men in public, regularly fell asleep in public mid-meeting repeatedly, and babbled incoherently you'd put him under care and not let him make important decisions.

As someone who publicly came out against Trump 8yrs ago, and ended my career as a Republican by doing so, and have endured hate & threats from the MAGA base these past 8yrs, I have zero sympathy for, and utter disdain for, all 3 of these groups of cowardly former Republican colleagues of mine.👇

BREAKING: A GOP senator asked for anonymity to reveal that "everyone in Congress knows Trump's second term is a disaster," but 1/3 of Republicans are grifting his supporters, 1/3 are afraid of Trump ending their careers, and 1/3 are afraid his cult is a danger to their families.

You can't afford a full tank of gas but Mike Rogers is chartering private planes and repairing his campaign's BMW. Summer's over so yachting turns to jetting I guess! Mike Rogers is just looking to go through the revolving door of politics to make another $14M.

Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

The most sickening thing is not that Elon Musk is pumping hundreds of millions into the midterm elections. The most sickening thing is that this doesn't make even a dent on his grotesque fortune, which means he will continue to abuse the power his wealth provides him.

“They can’t erase history.” The administration pardoned the rioters, fired the prosecutors, and scrubbed the website. But the facts are still there. Tom Joscelyn's "January 6 Memory Project" is making sure of it, and the link to it is in the comment below.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.
