Guy is high as a kite at the Oval Office and that NYTimes story from early today is definitely fake news 🤣

I know I should take this seriously but this ICE tweet genuinely made me laugh.

Good time to remember: The last time Trump was president, he ran up more than 25% of ALL the debt in the entire history of America $7.8 TRILLION DOLLARS And he’s about to do it again — so he and his billionaire friends, Musk and Bezos and Zuckerberg, can get tax cuts

McGovern: House rules require a super majority vote for any bill that increases income taxes. Guess what? Republicans are turning that rule off. Why did they have to do that? Because they know this bill will increase taxes on those families struggling the most to put food on the table.

“Six years ago, I found myself face to face with a white farmer preparing for the government to take his land. This did not happen in South Africa. It was in South Texas, and it was because of Trump…” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/u...

KARL: Is a trade deficit subsidizing Canada? RAND PAUL: No. They're really not related at all. What happens if we trade with another country because they have less expensive goods is we become richer. You also have more money you can spend.

In today’s “Wait A Damn Minute” we expose the truth about Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”: Trump is pulling a reverse Robin Hood - he’s taking from the poor to give to the ultra-rich. I’m your Shadow Press Secretary and here are the facts. @thepersistnetwork.bsky.social #WADM

I refuse to get distracted by trivialities like this when new stories are breaking about Biden struggling through a 2023 interview.

Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen and others were tackled by security, then dragged out of today’s HHS budget hearing. RFK Jr’s response was to snicker.

I do think that it’d be helpful if we spent less time talking about the DNC Vice Chairs and more about how Donald Trump is trying to take healthcare and food access from millions of people.

Article I, Section 9, Clause 8: “no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”

Zero! 😳

Expelling Black and Brown people. Importing the White descendants of the people who invented Apartheid. Via a chartered aircraft, of all things. MAGA is all about White Nationalism. They prove it every day.

Blow: I want to read you something: At the core of trump's candidacy is a call to for greater executive authority with willful disregard for the constitutional limits.. You recognize that? Jennings: Yeah, I wrote it. Blow: Exactly..

Planes were briefly “flying blind” into Newark Liberty International Airport last week after a communications blackout occurred. Sources said the outage lasted 90 seconds on April 28th and shook up the on-duty controllers so much that some were placed on “trauma leave.”

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? — Epicurus Why is such wisdom no longer ‘common’?

NEW: Here is Harvard's lawsuit against the Trump administration, filed today in federal court in Massachusetts (Docket No. 1:25-cv-11048): storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

"Pope Francis skipped the Vatican’s official meeting with Vice President JD Vance Saturday, instead having his No. 2 give the vice president a lecture on compassion, according to a Vatican statement."

Does he think he’s Fonzi? If so, he jumped the shark a long, long, long time ago.

“I feel much better now.” —nobody

NEWS Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard signed a sworn declaration stating that she was a resident of the State of Texas. But then she voted in Hawaii.

This is real. This is happening.

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

HUNT: Do you have Signal on your phone? NAVARRO: You guys beat that story to death on the campaign trail HUNT: Wait, this story wasn't on the campaign trail. It started on Monday.

I asked AI to explain fascism to a five-year-old, and the response is chilling. This is exactly what we are dealing with. Fascists.

YouGov poll: 74% Americans — including 60% of Republicans — say the Trump admin's use of the Signal chat to discuss military strikes is a serious problem.

Fortunately, and for now, Japan is a net buyer of US treasuries. www.barrons.com/articles/tre...

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

The Trump regime's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose: If we are angry at each other, we don't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

This is all to pay for a tax cut for the wealthiest Americans

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Check this out — American stocks were on par with global stocks up until late January — and have now dropped terribly since then Gosh I wonder what happened in late January?

America is more a Nazi game show than a country right now

DOCUMENT DESTRUCTION: My reporter Brett Murphy obtained a remarkable directive to folks at USAID: Empty the safes with the classified and personnel records and then, "Shred as many documents first, and reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break."

The cover-up… USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”

Get in loser, we're tanking the economy

US added to the global human rights watchlist due to declining civil liberties.

Leavitt: Tariffs are a tax hike on foreign countries and a tax cut for the American people Reporter: Have you ever paid a tariff? I have. They don’t get charged on foreign countries Leavitt: I think it’s insulting that you are trying test my knowledge on economics
